Hello,
So the other day browsing around I found a fellow selling off some of his trees. Really nice guy and I came home with a couple. This one is the oldest, and I liked it and wanted to share a picture. I don’t know what I am going to do with it, so I thought I would share it so here it is. The background I have on it is that it was grown in a very hot arid desert climate so the owner used large pots to avoid watering constantly in the sweltering summers. It has dense and compact, but draining, organic soil. The bottom of the pot has one center hole. I am thinking of trying to drill a couple more, from the bottom...but the single hole does seem to drain water well...and he grew it in this pot the last three years he told me.
I live by the coast (southern California) in a much more temperate climate. It’s too late to repot here so I will wait till next January to move to a smaller pot...and then again the following year.
I am considering a little wiring but that’s about it. Thanks for your considerations and suggestions.
