Boy, I wish we had one of those doomsday machines...

The rabbits Walter Pall’ed a bunch of my Satsuki prebonsai this past week during the deep freeze and I don’t know whether to be angry or not.

Like, they definitely went a lot shorter than I maybe would have in many cases, but also I can’t fault them on their form. They did an excellent job rounding them out.

I guess what worries me more is the risk of dieback given the time of year. Some plants got like an 80% defoliation, which I certainly wouldn’t have done until March :ohdear:

I thought the "prune after flowering" advice was mostly focused on maximizing flower buts for the next year. In general I *think* azalea can tolerate a heavy defoliation, though you are right the timing isn't ideal.

I've gone 2 for 2 losing Satsuki so far though so take my advice with a grain of salt. Third one's the charm!
