Thank you so much for the compliments and the tips! I'll be sure not to lose that branch...
I would not have thought about the need to maintain that branch..... Not that it was going anywhere, but it's good to know how to THINK of it.
I don't actually mind too much that the coloration is limitied. It tooks stunning even as a white... very elegant. So I am satisfied.
Warmest regards to all,
