I had a question from Gita the other day (waves - “Hi, Gita!” ), about her Salix Kilmarnock, which - as we all know now! - is a small, grafted, weeping ornamental tree.
Hers had been living in the pot in which it was bought, for a couple of years: then Gita noticed that the leaves were yellowing out of season, and the soil seemed to be really compacted, so she decided to take it out of the pot, and plant it in the ground.
I specify “take it out of the pot” because there have been several occasions, over the years, where I have found trees planted without the pots being removed....
...anyway, hers was planted properly, and it did much better: the tree is healthy, the branches are growing, in fact that has become the problem.....
