"Slow Sculpture" woth both the Hugo award (for short story) and Nebula award (for novelet), and is one of my favorite SF stories. These originally appeared in Star Short Novels (1954), Galaxy, Knight, and an unnamed magazine (copyright Sirkay Publishing) - from 1969 and 1970. This is the 1st appearance in a Sturgeon collection for all of these stories.

(Story summaries from front flap):
"Slow Sculpture" is an elegant and sensitive story of a man, a woman, a bonsai tree - and an extraordinary cure for a hideous disease.
"It Was Nothing - Really!" One of the most successful examples of expansion to hilarious absurdity.
"Uncle Fremmis" was the ultimate in handymen - he could fix anything, for a time, and he did.
"The Patterns of Dorne" shows how there are more ways than one to circumvent tyrrany - and the removal of the tyrant may not be one of them.
"Suicide" can be an act of redemption - if fate gives you just that one last chance to change your mind.
