ever heard of c-section births for pussy willows?

When mum was away, the pussy willows were more or less left to themselves to grow. Obviously, it didn't bloom due to lack of care by other resident of the house. So I ended up doing "Caesarian births" for the flowers.

1. Get your handy pen knife!
2. Choos flower buds with light brown shells. Those with dark brown/ black, don't bother, they'll probably drop off/ are spoilt.
3. Use your pen knife to make a slit in the shell.
4. Gently remove the shell.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY:
1. Get your handy UHU glue!
2. Stick back the fallen flower buds after using your pen knife to remove the shell.

It came out pretty good actually. Artificially bloomed pussy willows. Mum kept making alot drop off. I, on the other hand, did pretty well. I should go professional. xD

Happy Lunar New Year! :D
