    Sango Kaku Thoughts?

    If you want a bigger trunk, I'd ground grow it for a few years, THEN air layer above the graft. The root stick that it is grafted to will be a stronger and more vigorous rootbase.

    Plan of action...my big benjamina

    Sorry, haven't been on much the past couple years. The tree is progressing well. Currently dropping foliage as it normally does when brought in for the winter. Here it'll sit until spring when it'll get a hard cutback and rewired. Aaron

    Acer Grandidentatum (Bigtooth Maple)

    Couldn't tell you how old mine is as I collected it, but based on the growth rate of them in that area, I'd assume it's over 20 years old when collected. Aaron

    Ponderosa (?) problem...

    Pine tip moth is what it sounds like. Try cutting the dead needle cluster off at the point it started growing (last year's needles) it'll more than likely be hollow and you'll find a borer residing inside. SQUISH IT!!! Aaron

    Possible akadama replacement?

    GRAY OAK (QUERCUS GRISEA)

    Very true, same signs may lead different ways in our different climates. Glad to hear yours is growing strongly even though it had the severe rot. If it ever gives you to many problems, you know who will snag it up from you? Aaron

    GRAY OAK (QUERCUS GRISEA)

    I have a couple gray oaks from him and they all do it every winter, as do the gray oaks out in the wild I've seen. They always drop come spring and new growth comes in just fine. Aaron
