We promised Ptarotuos that we would plant something for Japan and here is my little tree, full of blossoms that are pale pink/white which symbolise action, motion, courage & passion, also its a sign of new beginnings, healing, & warmth and it bears fruit.

To tell the truth 6d, I was a little dissapointed when I saw the leaf & blossom werent purple and dark pink, but now its burst into blossom, I love it. Thanks.
Paul, I agree, its suprising to find out that most of our plants are gathered from far away.
