Mountain Ash exposed roots...Negari?
Here is a new one I picked up at the Wee Tree Farm in Oregon. It had a tag labled as "flowering Something $10.00". I guess it was tagged before it
had leafed out. I understand that it is a Mountain Ash, Sorbus Aucuparia.
It had some interesting looking exposed roots. I repotted it and thought it
needed a rock to grow on. I didn't follow the rules for planting a root over rock tree and just slipped a piece of obsidean under the exposed roots. It seems to be doing fine other than it is kind of "droopy". I don't know if this is it's regular habbit or if it is still a little shocky. So far, I have been keeping it in morning/mid day sun. We have had only a couple of days in the 80 degree
zone (f.) Any comments?
