Hey All. I rescued this 4+ year pot bound JM tree from a relative a few weeks ago. It was straggly and hadn't been repotted nor watered by anything other than a dog or a cloud for those 4 years as well. No one knows exactly what it is other than a JM. I had to lop it off to where it is today to get it home in my urban vehicle.
I'm hopeful someone can identify it somewhat based on node length (short), new growth color, as well as mature bark pattern and color. I'll post some leaf photos when they emerge.
It was in 16" x 16" or so pot and completely root bound and criss-crossed on many of the major roots. It's nebari will forever be questionable at best. Nonetheless we're making lemonade out of this lemon.
I cut off 80% of the root chaos and am giving it a breather for now. I'm looking for and more than willing to follow some additional advice regarding which pruning cuts to make the best of what is there.
And if anyone can ID it at all that would be swell as well!
