Shohin Kingsville Boxwood

I was doing a little trimming on this Kingsville today, and decided to set up a little scene and photograph it. The Kv and pot stand 7 3/4 inches tall.
I estimate this little Kv to be more than 30 years old.

Persist, and someday you may see the peak in sunshine. You may pick up the stone and it's a thing of beauty.
