My bonsai Jimmy

I have always repeated to those who asked me why I liked plants that love for them comes from a mutual exchange of feelings. Don't you think plants have feelings? You fools! All animal and plant beings have their own character and feelings ... But plants certainly don't cry or laugh as we can understand a cry or a smile.

I have been taking care of this plant for a couple of years ... a bonsai. I am not a botanist nor an expert in vegetation but I can guarantee you that I feel the same feeling that I can feel with some people. I'm crazy? Who knows! But the bonsai grows day by day, has never lost its leaves (apart from a few sporadic ones), grows more and more every day.

Some said that branches should be cut and given a shape, but I don't feel like it. Would you cut a child's fingers to make him grow better? Well I don't! Ah I forgot to tell you I gave it a name: Jimmy, like the famous guitarist Jimmy Hendrix. Why this name? First of all I like his music and I play the guitar too. Then I wanted a plant that could give me the recharge at the right times!
