It might limit the size by making the plants unhealthy..you have to consider that. Limited water,nutrients. I've seen those as street tree's,not very large tree's..but not like a shrub grown into a tree like many sidewalk tree's. You might just plant them and keep an eye on height. Pruning or shearing to keep the height down.

First,are you taking any vitamins? This could be as simple as a vitamin deficentcy. Have you been under unusual amounts of stress? Because that can cause hairloss. Certain medications can contribute to hairloss.Are you on any medications? It could simply be an age factor.I read somewhere that something like 70 percent of women have somewhat thinner hair by age 30. It could be HORMONAL.Too much testosterone in women can cause hairloss. Do you have any other problems such as: excessive facial hair,acne,irregular periods? If so a doctor may put you on birth control pills. It could also be a thyroid problem.And you may want to have your thyroid checked. Haircolor can also cause more hair shedding.Especially bleaching.If hair is damaged,it may break off. So,as you see,there are ALOT of possible causes of hairloss for women. Here are some things to try on your own: 1) There is a product called NIOXIN.It is a bit expensive (30 dollars) for a 3 step system (shampoo,conditioner,and a scalp spray) that you can find at almost any salon. It was made for people with thinning hair and really plumps what hair you have,while putting your scalp in optimal conditions to grow more hair.This is a great product for people with fine or thinning hair! 2) Start taking a vitamin called BIOTIN.And make sure you are getting enough protein.Also,a multi vitamin if you arent already. 3) Make sure you are getting plenty of rest. 4) Soy is excellent for hair and hair growth.I read an article that said soy may help with hairloss,as it blocks the hormone DHT testosterone that causes male patterned baldness.If you are a woman with too much testosterone,then it could also help.Maybe some TOFU or a glass of soy milk a day would be ideal. 4) See a doctor.For issues like THYROID or vitamin deficency,only your doctor will able to figure out what is going on and how to regulate it if needed with medication. 5) Get a good trim.If the hair falling out is at all caused by damage or hair dyes,this will help mountains! Plus it will make your hair seem fuller. Dont feel bad,I'm sure there is a reason why this is happening,and you will get to the bottom of it.Good luck to you!

Wacky OT story about modifying hair for travel: I was heading for a Yorkshire walking tour, and to head off the inevitable flat hair the wind and rain would bring, I got a perm and carried no blow dryer or curling iron! Woo hoo! Freedom! Well, on the way home it got interesting. This was a year after the jet was blown up over Lockerbie, Scotland. I was flying home through Glasgow. At Security, I tripped all the triggers for interrogation: ...I'd paid cash for my ticket, ...I traveled alone, ...I'd stayed in a village no one knew (and I didn't understand the village-town system enough to explain where I'd been), ...I was traveling through Glasgow instead of the closer Manchester (our newspaper had run a series on great train rides, and a Yorkshire line ending at the border was one, so of course I had to take advantage), ...I had no blow dryer or curling iron, apparently unlike most women, and ...with my perm I looked very little like my passport photo. The security guy couldn't wrap his head around any of my explanations, nor could his supervisor. They rifled through my suitcase that was going to be checked (remember, the Pan Am was exploded by a bomb in checked luggage), questioned, examined, and took the battery out of my $5 Target travel clock, even asked me about the other walkers on the trip! They finally let me through. To walk through an UNSECURED area of the airport to get to my gate. Crazy. And all for my vanity!

I also have frizzy hair. I'd like to try keratin, but I don't think I understand how it works. I'll have to research. When I was in my 20s, I used to comb Toni home perm solution through my hair in the shower. It would come out straight without the frizziness and it also bleached my mousy brown hair so it appeared sunkissed. I only did it once every couple of years because it was so hard on my hair, but man did it look good when I did. Well, you all convinced me and I just cut a couple of inches off the bottom to get back to shoulder length. I'd been growing it out over the summer, I did love being able to pull it back into a loose messy bun, but this is overall a better look for me. I can still get it into a pony tail, so still have some options. On the subject of going short, for me, I try to remember to go slow. I often think I want really short, but sometimes just a couple of inches is enough of a change. If it's not, then I go shorter. I once went from really long to a pixie cut. Big mistake.
