Picked up this two-for-one from a local listing for unwanted trees. Picture from listing:
The pot had been left outside for a few days unwatered and the soil in the container looked like moon dust.
Full height of the tree here was ~8" - so I had to field dress to fit in the car. I trimmed back a bit further and cleaned/sealed wounds later in the day.
Removed top 1.5" of moon-dust and replaced with some pearlite and potting soil + some fertilizer granules.
The red-barked tree is a Strawberry. I see them planted in landscapes locally - usually by streets or in parking lots. I'm curious to see what it looks like below the line, and
hope it will back bud post the chop. Base is about 2".
Other tree in the pot is a silver wattle. That too got chopped back hard and I'll separate when repotting.
