Hey all,

Not sure if I've posted this tree here or not, so I will go ahead and post it. It is a major work in progress. While I am no where near done with it, I just thought I would post it and show what I've done to it so far. Here t was before the work:

The buds showed me how well the tree was growing (this tree was recovering from a chop a month before), so I figured I would go ahead and remove those horrible, disgusting roots. Here are the pictures from that removal:

Rootball before:

Rootball after:

Here it is potted up and growing:

What do you think of the drastic lean this tree takes? Keep it or chop it? Comments always welcome.
