More signs of Spring - Pussy Willows!

Spring is continuing to advance on Livingtree, and, staring yesterday, people have been spotting Pussy Willows covered in pinkish gray catkins!

Pussy Willows have always been a special harbinger of Spring for me (Robin,) and I really wanted some for the island. But I wasn't able to find any, anywhere. So I've taken the plunge, and gone ahead and made some.

I thought that other people might like them, too, so I'm selling them as well.

I've made six different plants, and right now they are scattered over the island, set for sale individually. (For L$25.) Tomorrow, I'm going to be packing them into Six Packs, one of each design, for L$100, or Estate Packs (four of each, or 24 plants) for L$250. If you only want one, and you want to see all six of them in close proximity, head for the Mud behind Kick the Can, or for the Drums behind the Broom Closet.

If you want to have a variety, though, you might want to wait until I have the packs out, in the Home and Garden Center.

Just wanted to give you all a heads-up.

By the way, I made the yellow willow trees, too; but I'm not sure about selling them. If you think that you'd like to have them, please IM me.

More news tomorrow, when the packs are ready. In the meantime, come enjoy the Spring! (Or, if you want one last bit of Winter, come now. The skating, snowmen, and snowmobiling will still be there for this one last weekend, and then they are going to be gone until next November.)

See you there!
