In the past year, I have been thinking a lot about the "root problem" alluded to before. I decided to put a rock in among the roots in such a way that the base of the plant would be improved, and a root over rock would be created. When I have done this in the past with quince, I have used lava, because it is easy to shape lava with an educated whack of a hammer.
This is what I did here. I went to a pet store and bought a piece of lava that was intended for a fish tank. Essentially, this rock was a very irregular torus. I saw that breaking a section of the donut would allow me to hook it into and around the roots. This is what I did.
