Default [IBC] Pussy Willow

Yeah, my local grocery store is carrying them, and I had to hit my hand not to buy one. They're pretty.

Remember that they are outdoor shrubs, and can't be kept indoors for more than "Valentine's day" and a few days more. Then they have to go out. Also remember that they aren't especially good for bonsai, being soft wood and disease-prone and fast-growing,
and needing lots of water. You will need a Murata state of mind to keep one: tell yourself: I like it, it's nice, so it's a bonsai.
