prayers up for my nearly decade old juniper which is about to walk through the pearly gates despite me fighting a daily battle during the last 7 months as I tried desperately to save it

    you get it :sicko-wholesome:

    I'm fairly certain what did my child in was the two weeks in february where it went back and forth between the daily temp being ~4°C and shooting up to ~24°C the next day before dropping back down to freezing, rinse and repeat. It is a shimpaku though so I figured it'd bounce back without any problems and even gave it a nice pruning back in December.

    :shrug-outta-hecks: It's still getting fertilized and watered normally throughout the rest of the growing season as I have faith that my comrade will return.
