| That's really terrible Linda, and I'm sorry to hear that =( and to happen to you of all people...your cuttings you sent me are doing great (some didn't take, that's to be expected though) I really hope that you can salvage what you have left, and as soon as mine grow more mature, if you're in need I'll send you some. Hang in there Linda. Greg J. |

| Oh no, not again Linda. After that huge storm that took down that big beautiful tree you use to have in your front yard, I hope you don't loose anymore. You will be in my prayers. If you loose that plant, I too can help you. Yes, as Nancy said, please keep us posted. E-mail me, ok. Mike |

| Good luck, Linda! My bonsai CC blew over last Autumn and looked pretty bad when I put it back into its pot.

| I sure hope you fare well through this tempest.Life can be so uncertain so quickly. Would not a flipped over CC make for LOTS of cuttings in the trimming of damage off of it?. I bet the roots will still be intact. Take them out of the soil and trim the bruised and bent roots off, and the bent and bruised tops off. Let them callous over for a day or three and then repot in your favorite dirt. I have had my 6' epi and ceramic pot be blown by a gustando ("twist UP tornado") and thrown 6 feet., and that was what I did. |
