<p>Lois was Hector's apprentice for five years, starting with watering (Hector's philosophy: &quot;Water three times; once for the tree, once for the pot, and once for good measure!&quot;), and pruning. She then graduated onto potting and styling. Beginning in 2008, Hector really began training her to take over the department. Today, she&nbsp;staffs our Bonsai area, tending to bonsai care, styling, repotting, and bonsai plant information. As a&nbsp;member of the&nbsp;Four Season Bonsai Club, she has access to extensive resources.&nbsp;</p>
