Greenhouse build finally scheduled(couldn’t get the concrete in time last fall) so had to move trees out of the garden. Forecast also called for below freezing this week so a bunch of trees have to go back into protection anyway(repots and new growth). Caught a rainbow this morning during the move!

Thanks. The eBayers name is jaw_7186
Hope this link works. I used a branch jack on the trunk and almost kinked it. Did damage to the trunk as it was left on too long but has pretty much healed over now. Got its 1st potting in this mica pot 4 yrs ago.

You may find a lot of useful information on maples and tips and techniques in the thread below.
Japanese Maples that Root from Cuttings
Yes, it's a bit late in the season, so they will have to be babied. These are being rooted in my basement. Those that root will stay down in the basement until temps hit a constant 50 degrees next year to safely move out side. What kind of light do you give them through winter? And do they...

Seedling
My husband has done 9 rounds with a couple of them this spring and finally had to have surgery and post-op stent for a little while. Glad you passed it; I understand those to be a . . . very special kind of pain.Passed a small kidney stone

Baby bald cypress forest give away
I am giving away a baby bald cypress forest kit with a 15" plastic pot (picture below) and 10 seedlings. Note that the seedlings came from my twisting experiment so they will be funky. $25 for shipping and handling is all I ask. If you want it, just reply to the thread. I will assign a number to...
Potted up a few small plants I just got. Not ideal repotting time for any of them but I wanted to get them out of the nursery containers so they went into the ICU (on a heat mat and under lights) for a couple/few weeks.

Prior to buds opening, I did a light clean up to make room for when it's full.
Bare rooted 2019 into this wrong pot, wrong placement for now. Next Spring will be 6 years from 1st only potting.

Welcome to middle age!Passed a small kidney stone
Only ever did that once. I'm good.
It's the sort of thing that gets you out of bed because wallowing in that much pain works better on a nice firm surface.

Picked up one of those Lowes black marker plants a month ago and finally repotted it. Plant was probably left over from last year and very pot bound. Need to do more branch trimming.

Assembled another bench and got the last of the trees spots on the patio for the summer! The Blue Atlas Cedars and the wee butchered Trident Maple will still be doing a two-step over the next couple of weeks (we're supposed to get down to freezing a couple of nights) until things warm up more reliably.

I dig your benches here--is there any particular place you get them? Asked the husband to build me something but truth be told I think he'd rather I buy.

I got mine on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07459Y7XW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Easy to assemble, though I don't usually put the top little bit on (you can see it on the one on the left of the photo, just as a place to attach my very crude attempt at movable shade cloth). Back when I only needed one, the cost wasn't so much of a thing, but it's all got a bit out of hand, as you can see. >_>;; I wish I could utilize the lower levels, but the local rabbit population has proven itself untrustworthy around wee trees.
