That tree was or still is a meme factory

It’s been thoroughly ignored, LOL:



I suppose I should see if it’s salvageable. It’s hot right now, so it’s the right time.

If you ever try this again- try to scrape the bark on the upper and lower matching areas to get them to grow together.
nice experiment though. I say plant it on any angle like a slant trunk spiral and make little cuts and rooting hormone. Cover it with spaghnum moss and try to get aerials???
This is dedication- I can say that for sure!
