Hey guys. I was very fortunate to find an amazing deal on this tree as well as 2 similar sized Mugo Pines var 'Green Alps'. $25 each, so I was pumped. They are monsters though.
Just repotted the Scots a couple days ago. It was a balled and burlapped tree. A good amount of the heavy clay came out easily and I put it in a grow box.
I was very excited to find a really fat trunk under the soil but you can clearly see the difference in bark because of the graft. For now I'm going to let it recover untouched for at least a year.
Thoughts on peeling off some of the thick bark at the bottom in order to improve the transition to the flaky bark at the top of the tree?
Thanks!
