We Dug this massive field grown tree up this weekend to begin its life in container with the help of a 40,000 dollar machine that is like a giant ice cream scoop. It will be left in this container and allowed to run wild with a few whips intact to strengthen branches and help heal larger scars. It has massive root flare, taper and some extreme movement...In 10 years ... it should make for good conversation. I have chosen a first branch, a front...a second branch...and the apex will likely be taken upwards and not continue out as much it is now. For now, Let it grow and recover phase.
