[elusivek]

I was bemoaning that my Suehime (Japanese Rose) was just... falling leaves and probably dying? Well, I figured, let me take the chance to try and shape the branches like in a bonsai and went ahead and did that. Hurt like a b*tch because of the thorns. Then I just let it out under the sun and continued to water it every day... and guess what, it's sprouting leaves again.

I very much doubt it's the wiring, so it's most probably some kind of disease that killed all the existing leaves and now new leaves are growing?
