Here’s my Yaupon Holly

[willhopper]

So, as mentioned in my other post, here is the Yaupon Holly my wife collected from a local home. We have verified this was planted at the house at least 75 years ago. We are going to put it in a smaller cement mixer pot soon, to gradually train it for a smaller pot.

Thanks. We may get a pro to either work it or give us advice.

Yep, I bought an angle grinder and a Makita die grinder specifically for this tree.
