Hello Forums,
I collected this Kentucky Yellowwood (Cladrastis Kentukea) on my property in December of 2014. It was growing in a cascading style naturally with a long taproot and about 4-5; 3 inch long feeder roots. I flipped it 90 degrees so it was upright in the pot. At the time I collected it I had no idea what species it was or if it would even make it. I potted in up in a pine bark heavy bonsai soil and placed the 1.5 gallon container in another container and surrounded it with mulch. It came out in late April , and it took me about a 2 weeks to figure out what I was even dealing with.
Here are a few photos of the plant as of today:
Here is the plant after collection and the rock that I was wanting to put it on.
I just wanted to know if anyone had any experience with this species, although it is pretty regionally specific.
