Conclusion, I want show the jin & lifeline. Cut off first left branch , The vision of lifeline
Jin will be more easy to show & Bunjin Style.

Most ficus should be defolate from middle summer(August) to middle
Autumn (October) , but the temperature still very hight . So put under
the shadow is nessary.
I always put in the front of my workhouse, to enjoy everyday.

Do yu like my ficus? Comments NEED.
Actually, I still have many ficus, so need more time to remove leaves. The best time in Taiwan is in
the end of Auguset or early Semtmber.

This pink Crepe Myrtle have flowers about 70 days, althouth have
many flowers but for the health should prun all flowers, Let new bud
come out again, to increase ramification.

Crepe Myrtle after flower should be cut short twigs,( fruits will demage
health )

Put under the shadow will be good for new bud.

The new buds will come out very soon in early August. Probably
one week.
