Got a dappled willow, thinking the tag at 4×6ft was the actual size. No. It's a shrub, small tree. Up to 15-20ft tall.
Huh.
Well. Okay.
Noticed 4 trunks and didn't see them split off each other. 💡❗️
I can probably turn this $30 single plant into four $7.5 plants!
Yup.
Now we wait for the shock...
Well. Gonna be a funky tree.
And based on all the unclean dead ends both had, obvious now that these trees kept dying back at the nurseries and regrew. Why sell trees that cannot easily survive here?
The tiny one is fully dead and tossed. Same with that tiny red pot holly. =/
So, cut the end off. As far as I can feel, I need to cut 4 more inches, if not blown all the way through. Idk yet.
Anyway, that dark collar under my thumb, that ALWAYS rusts and snaps. Always.
I'm getting the threads mixed up again....Supposed to be the pawpaw, willow and mulberry thread.
Got 31 pawpaw seeds planted.
Realized that I can use the water bottles as tall pots and greenhouses. The bag planter for grouping them together and to move. Have tons more seeds...😵💫
37 others...
That's a very different tree here. Tulip poplar, tulip tree. Never heard a mag called that.
Technically related, both in the Magnoliaceae family.

The two in the woods.
One got squished?? Wtf? Deer laid against it? Idk
Fail.
2nd, not squished, growing!
37 pawpaw seeds. Number 38 was starting to sprout, so it's inside to stay in the 70s.
So, 12 growing, 5 failed. Sad.
