Walter, please send me this "lousy" maple right away. It is way better than anything I have ever done or, at this point, hope to do. To my unsophisticated eyes, it is absolutely beautiful! I would promise to water it, fertilize, repot it when needed and otherwise take the best care of it anyone possibly could! Think of how it would feel in a home where it was really loved and appreciated!
I feel like a kid looking at a puppy that everybody else thinks is a real loser, but that I find adorable!
I hate to say it, but I'm afraid your example is, for me, a dramatic counter-example. In the hands of a Walter Pall, pig's ears can, indeed, be turned into silk purses!
In appreciation, Fred
