I found the calendar that goes with Dennis' notes. I was a student in his class for a few years, and we followed his notes, and I re-hashed his calendar so that it started in June and followed through the seasons. In class, We all followed his calendar and method for over one year and our Japanese Black Pines ware splendid. I thank Dennis for showing us that Black Pines are not such a mystery and not so difficult after all.
