FUNNY STORY In the late '80s I drove by an older house in town occasionally. There were 2 large yews that had never been pruned, maybe 10'x10'. Typical bonsai lust. After several lusting episodes I stopped. I knocked on the door and a little old lady,75ish, answered. The name on the mailbox was Jackson so I introduced myself and said. Mrs Jackson, I would like to have those yews and ill gladly replace and/or re-landscape, fill in and leave it as nothing has been done. She sais: Oh honey I couldn't do that. My late husband (bless his heart) planted those 48yrs ago. I told that I appreciated her position but if she ever moved or changed her mind I would buy them. And.she said, OH You mean BUY them. How much would you give? I said Mrs. Jackson it's your property and I'll give you what you want if it's fair. She said $25 and I gave $50 and we were both tickled to death.
