There is nothing more attractive than someone who does things for you without needing to be asked / reminded or when they promise something and follow through

This Bonsai Mint has been my oddball project. I put a lighter for size comparison to show you. It is growing in pon in a tiny glass cup. In case you ever wondered if bonsai trees can grow in pon!

To stay pest free, we put all new plant arrivals through this protocol: 1) Remove soil 2) Wash 2x 3) Cut all nodes 4) Submerge in water 12hrs 5) Wash w/ hydrogen peroxide, rinse 6) Repot rooted plants, isolate 2mos then pest check 7) Root nodes in sphagnum moss 8) Intermittent neem oil sprays
