What the hell, this forsythia clump dug from the garden has a bad nebari, crap trunks and rubbish branching, but for two weeks a year IT'S CRAZY!!!!!
And close up:
This site is open to all, and shares information at many levels. We all had to learn somehow. We can do better it without patronising abuse, hectoring, and self-importance .
