"Last December, Hiroshi kindly gave me this large plant that had full of leaves on its branch when he had a solo exhibition in Horticultural Society of New York. After his exhibition had finished, I took the plant to my apartment. but the leaves started falling off because of the cold wether. ............ One day in June, while I was going out, I put the pots on the fire escape to give them sun light. that was the time a big squirrel I had sometimes saw came and dug the soil in the pots and bit the plants at its root..........to read all the texts along with his beautiful pictures, take a look at http://www.flickr.com/photos/katsuhirosaiki/sets/72157624816952658/with/4931031039/
