Sapling
Any general information on oak (not sure on the species of mine) would be appreciated, but I do also have some questions.
Will the leaves grow in huge, or since the tree is small, they'll stay small? I'm not sure how the leaf size thing works.
I dug up a small 12-15 in oakling with a 2 inch trunk, and I'm assuming it's a stunted older tree, as some of the others around it of similar size had very twisted trunks, and all the trees in it's general area were stunted (none over 10 feet). It had a very long tap root, 3ish feet, what's the best way to deal with it? Like do I leave it, or bend it or something else?
Here it is pre-digging. And below after.
