seil zone 6b MIUpdated This is not something you'll be able to do all at once. You will never get the old growth to train to the arch now. It's too inflexible. I would start training any of the newer, more bendable canes to begin with. The usual met...

Sow_what? Southern California InlandUpdated Yes, as Diane said. Blue Chip is the largest of the micros and the easiest to find. I haven't tried it Nik, since I wanted an even smaller one. The Lo and Beholds generally are getting mixed reviews so far, and I'm not seeing much...
