Is it Spring, yet? It looks like it is. Once again the snow is melting around the house making the ground as soggy as it can be. More interesting is the fact that my tiny maple-tree-turned-into-bonsai seems to be doing fine.
Last year, I found a little (2 or 3 year old) maple tree stem stuck in a piece of concrete: I carefully repotted it in a small bowl using a combination of soil and rocks. When Fall arrived I faced one dilemma: put it outside or leave it inside. I ended up leaving it inside, however, I found the perfect spot to have it lose its leafs: our porch happens to be the coldest place in the house. It actually lost its leafs, a wee bit later than the trees outside.
With the heat slowly returning, and the porch heating up faster than the rest of the house, I expect the tree to open its buds soon too. Time to do some repotting.
