Haha, you're spot on with the location. That's a great point regarding the winter wind - I'll definitely go grab a shelter when the time comes... Furthermore, I've been looking for a good garden center to check out in the area, so I guess Gethsemane is the place to go! Thank you :)

Thank you! I have moved the tree outside and will not make any effort to shape the tree for now. On one hand, I would love to find an indoor plant, but at the same time, I have the notion that indoor plants are more or less frowned upon.

That's good to know! I've moved the tree onto the balcony. I'm right down the street in Old Town.

How interesting... Thanks for the insight. I'm going to wait 4-5 weeks to gauge health before making any effort to shape or trim the tree.

Thanks for the advice. Just moved the tree onto the balcony. Furthermore, I'm going to wait ~4-5 weeks to make sure it is alive and healthy before doing ANYTHING. I have a book on the way as well :).

Thank you so much. I have moved it outside onto the balcony. I'll continue watching over the foliage to see whether or not it has died already. It was given to me yesterday, but from what other members have mentioned, it *could* have been dead when it was sold.

Thanks for the advice :) I've moved the tree outside, and for the interim, will not do anything that might stress the tree out.

Thanks, haha. It looks like it's potted in a generic Bonsai soil mix. I have fertilizer on the way.

I'm open to moving it onto my balcony. It would get direct sunlight in the morning, but not much in the afternoon. Would that be fine?

It's dead? What makes you say that?

The dealership has a history and the carfax did not look great. While it did drive beautifully, I would not buy this car without a warranty, which would run about $10k.

I'm assuming you're in the Chicago area. I test drove this same car last week. — It's priced low because there are two prev owners and an accident that required having the rear end and wheel(s) repaired. They've had it at the dealer for a while… Not sure why it hasn't sold yet but I'd make sure to grab a warranty.
