Here’s a tree I got from the same location 10 years ago. I just potted it with no wire or anything in the soil around where it was. I basically did what I’ve been doing now but learned there’s better ways toI've been holding my tongue here, but for crying out loud, why didn't you ask all of this BEFORE you collected the tree? If you're going to make the effort to hike 13 miles, dig a tree then haul it out--you'd think you might have thought about how the tree is going to survive.
Hope you had a permit.
Please if you're going to collect UNDERSTAND WHAT YOURE GETTING INTO BEFORE you get into it...Being careless and selfish with a 200, 300 or 1,000 year-old living thing is not cool...and more importantly, it reinforces negative stereotypes of unethical, careless collectors.
go about this and expedite the recovery process. I’ve never killed any yamadori I’ve collected. This tree actually still wobbles around in its shallow pot. I definitely need to secure it when I repot it this spring!
