Great tree Uncle! Glad to see the Wrightia is doing well after the repot.Collected April 2022. Good base, good size, good taper. Normal development. Growing well especially after being dunked. Here’s hoping for lots of knees in the next few years.
Perhaps the great thing about it is that it is all around good.

It was planted in a mix of top soil and bark until the roots were well established. Then the tub is krpt filled with water to 3/4” above the soil.Man, all these bald cypress's i see really makes me wanna get more of em lol.
Is it actually planted with soil in that? Or is the rootball just submerged 24/7 in the water
ahh gotcha gotcha appreciate it!It was planted in a mix of top soil and bark until the roots were well established. Then the tub is krpt filled with water to 3/4” above the soil.
The tree right now just sits in the tub with no tie down wire. If I push it, I can tilt it any direction I want. This is done on purpose because I think, in unstable environment, BC builds more roots to stabilize itself.It was planted in a mix of top soil and bark until the roots were well established.

The plan for this tree has changed. After the spring flush has hardened, it will be dunked to 6" above the soil for the summer.It was planted in a mix of top soil and bark until the roots were well established. Then the tub is krpt filled with water to 3/4” above the soil.
