Goodbye Lady Banks!

11 years ago

I finally got my Lady Banks showel pruned. After 3 yrs, she is gone. That was an impulse buy without knowing much. I tried to give it away but did not find any takers. I feel much lighter today, there is no way I can grow it in my small backyard. The good thing is now I have place for something else.

That was probably a good move, Indu. Lady Banks is a beautiful monster.
