Yes, the pot is warped.

For reference this is what the rectangular planting looked like in April2018.

Thank you for asking. Attached are photos taken today. As you can see I used the hemlock to create two forest plantings. Miniature azalea to mimic rhododendrons that you will find in the hemlock forest areas of North Carolina. The rectangular pot is 21" across, tallest tree 24". Round pot...

When I see green pine needles dropping when I touch a tree I immediately think of sawfly worms. Look at the needles, if they are dropping with the sheath attached then it likely isn't sawfly, if they are dropping leaving a little stub on the branches then you have sawfly working on your trees...

Nope, It didn't make it. I did too much all at the same time. Should have taken more time between steps, like a couple of years instead of one session.

Barely. Do you still have any cork oak that you would sell and ship to North Carolina? I am interested.

That is a standard bamboo chopstick on the table in front of the pot.

I would like to enter the drawing. Many thanks for doing this.

If all you are after is salicylic acid, why not dissolve an asprin tablet in a quart of water or some other amount of water. That would be a cheep way to get some.

Thank you. For scale, that is a standard bamboo chopstick stuck in the pot.

Have you tried defoliateing to reduce the leaf size?

Add a Hackberry to the mix.

There will be more next year.

A web search brings up all kinds of "backcountry". Can you be a little more specific as to what you are refering to?

If you check into it you'll find that on the same day a year earlier planes were grounded because the air was to hot for them to develop needed lift. It's nothing new, simple airplane saftey precautions.
