Brush Cherry: September 2024 update by michaelruschena Posted on October 1, 2024October 1, 2024 Still going strong after a new soil mix a year ago. That ground cover has settled in nicely. I imagine I could just peel it off, and it hasn’t much blended with the bonsai soil mix, but that’s OK. I think I like this for the front, except for that middle branch growing upright.
