A Cautionary Tale About Yew Tree Bonsai & Scale Insects

I’m sitting here on a sweltering hot Friday afternoon with two choices before me.

#1 Sit here for the next three hours putting together an informative article detailing what I know about the pernicious scale insect in relation to yew trees and bonsai.

#2 Shut this all down and go ride my beautiful Harley in the sunshine…………

What would you do?

After the week I have had i’m off, we’ll get back to this next week.

Have a great weekend everybody. Enjoy the sunshine if you have it 😉

    Beautiful bike, Graham. Wish I could join you for a ride. Haven’t ridden my bike in ages but I’ll get back to it. Do it while you can.
