Chunky Bald Cypress

This is a bald cypress I just received. Trunk chopped and sealed. Bare rooted. Trunk base sawed flat. Potted in grit/muck/soil combo and topped with my bonsai soil mix.

12 oz. can for size reference. Photo of tree potted shows it sitting on 16" cement blocks.

It needs time to grow and recover. Then, a new lead will be selected and taper carved for a new apex. Needs lots of time, water and fertilizer....but then again, don't we all....
