Project lemon tree part 3 ( I think we're up to 3)
Over the weekend I took the guy who knows what he's doing out to take more cuttings from Cora's tree. We looked at the rose bush and wondered how exactly you take cuttings from a rose bush. It was slightly less emotional to see the house because it really is very empty in my mind. I guess I must be feeling more closure around Cora's death. It feels like an eternity since I last saw her. The last time I visited at the house she was significantly more lucid than normal and we talked about her wedding. Then I saw her at the hospital and she was already going cold. The new lemon tree cuttings joined their surviving cousin cuttings, and they all look about right. I think. I have no clue what lemon tree cuttings are supposed to look like. They are getting much better care than I could give them. If nothing else there are plenty of seeds. I have a fridge full of lemons and I'm very happy.
