It never bloomed in ten years. Not one petal, not even a bud. Nothing but leaves, year after year.
By an amazing coincidence, it bloomed the very year after my mother said we would cut it down if there weren’t any blooms next year.
And people say plants aren’t intelligent.
PS--the tree that I thought was a crabapple in this post
is actually a cherry tree. Which is why I never went for a degree in horticulture.
