I got one of Wally World's $5 Apple Blossoms two years ago. It bloomed
nicely and rather than toss it, I carried it on and put it out on the deck
for the summer. Last winter it just sprouted a few leaves in the house, but
I couldn't bring myself to deep-six it, so it spent another summer on the
deck, where it decided to bloom in August. It's still in its original pot,
too. I wonder what it might do if I fussed over it?
