If you found it in a nursery its a good find and is allowed
If the tree is already in training for mame for sometime its not allowed

@Cadillactaste gotcha!
I do say that I admire the challenge and pushing yourself. Makes this all worth it.
I can't wait to see your outcome on this!!

Thanks...I'm still on the wall on this one. But if it can be done,it's worth trying. Boston ivy have been done before...just not as often. Sadly I can't picture a direction...so will be looking for a collection of pots to stockpile for the day it is repotted. Once it's dormant I presume to hope it whispers in my ear.
Looking to see what we all accomplish by pushing ourselves. Have fun on your journey my friend!

I like ruthless.Here's my entry. I'm going to live dangerously and sink or swim with this one plant.
Pokomoke crape myrtle. I chose this because it handles drastic root reductions well. My plan is to be ruthless with it very soon.

So I'm wondering...how many of us will DQ out of the contest by seeing a slightly larger Shohin in our material along the way. I have a feeling...I may be a contender with disqualifying when said and done. So...that will be interesting to see if I'm correct in my thought process. At least...for myself

These 2 are probably going to be my entries, I'm still waiting to see if a couple of others I have will recover first but these will be my fall back at least.

Why are you removing all the interior growth, when you are trying to make a small tree? You should be doing the opposite, and chopping those big heavy branches back to stubs and forcing it to grow closer to the trunk.

Well that is my plan, I haven't removed any growth at all. It is still in the plastic bag from the nursery I got it from a couple of hours ago.

My bad, I thought those were before and after shots of the same tree. Carry on.

No worries, I can see how it could look that way.
