Truck load of Hornbeam!!!

[MACH5]

These are all beauties, but so big. Piglet is already enough for me, but I would love to see some smaller stock in the same vein for sure.

Oh come on Juds... man up!

Oh come on Juds... man up!

She's not the only one who would like something a touch smaller.
I wouldn't mind one. But they're HUGE! So am I but buying a decent pot for one would be expensive for me.
But good Lord if a huge one is all a guy can get then a huge one it is.

@Stickroot thanks again for the chojubai...it's doing well and I love it!!!

 

[MACH5]

I am excited for this! Could not resist and bought one of these beauties!! Below are a couple of pics of the one I purchased. I am planning to drop it into my new grow out area and leave it there for a while to heal scars, thicken new branches, etc. Stickroot will be shipping it this Monday! More to come.

Thanks guys! It should be a fun but also challenging project. This is some of the best deciduous material I have seen in a very long time. Cmeg1, you have a great tree! And in the end you may be the one laughing when I end up in the hospital from a hernia or broken back while you happily clip and trim your tree!

Lol

Duuude, that thing is so cool. And uh, huge!

Yes, but be mindful that without the big rootball it will only be 10 feet tall!?


Seriously I don't think it's that big. The rootball makes it look huge. Like when they tell you to stretch your arms out so you look bigger when confronted with a grizzly bear. Yeah you know that type of thing.

BIG things happening in that garden of yours Sergio.

I am pretty excited as well! I have great faith in the development of this tree in your care.
This is going to be lots of FUN!

They Are shipped as freight in a crate and to get the price down they can go as LTL if you can wait a few days so I can find you the right one.

All you need is a loading dock and a fork lift to unload, right?

The trucking company sets these on the ground with a Tommy gate.
@Walter Pall had this figured out years ago, but nobody wants to be in a class with Walter Pall. Right?
