One Bonsai Privet’s Story
“Twenty-five years ago I was removed from a chook pen in postcode 2454
and put in a pot.
What could I do to stop it? Nothing.
What have I done about it? Adapted
The carer is not so smart and endlessly resists the reality of being
root bound in a pot.
But we Privets are hardy, so I soldier on, or endure, as a less war
like species would probably say.
If they could.
And it’s not all bad. I listen to Bach, and am treated with moderate
respect.”
Paula, Redfern
