We are moving in a couple of weeks. Next year, my window tree will bloom for someone else. Nothing is permanent, but I will never forget my beautiful friend.

It is indeed sad to leave behind a tree which gave so much pleasure in the years pass…Hope you will find a new one where you are going… Sara

I hope that there is a lovely tree at our new home, and that the new tenants in our current place love this tree even half as much as I do.

It is a beautiful tree – losing even one is hard.

Mmmm! Are those flowers fragrant? What a lovely tree.

I cannot tell! They are just outside our window, but remain slightly out of reach. I never smell them when the window is open…I love this tree and will certainly miss it when we move.

I know this feeling. I helped save a Thuja cedar in Seattle. The idiots before me had put a boxed planter around the thing and it was rotting the trunk. I excavated that lovely gigantic tree. That house got foreclosed on. Hope no new idiots moved in to destroy the old giant.

Oh, poor tree! At least you were able to save it. I love this tree, and will miss it when we move. I am sure to form attachments to things at the new place; only time will tell.
