hey thanks guys!!! well tonight was not really the celebration, myself, the wife, and the baby just went out, shopped a little, and grabbed a bite, the family deal. tomorrow is the get together where i may partake of a few tasty adult beverages. normally i don't drink at all, so when i use the word few, it can most likely be taken literally. so pat, maybe the tree will want to live after all.

My alcohol consumption is very minimal also.
I guess that's why I fear hangovers so much!

two bougies

I have always just use lime sulpur. You have to apply once a year never have much of a problem of rot. Sounds like you are water a little too much. Make sure you dont carve into the soil line. If you put varnish on it it is almost forever before it will come off. I have never seen a varnished tree. I have a lot of carved trees lime sul has always worked for me. Just another opinion. You know what they say about opinions.

Just don't do the carving after those tasty adult beverages. Wait...Actually, go ahead and do it after those drinks, they might open your mind to great ideas!
