Wild grown tree 🌳


I just collected this tree from the wild near my parents' garden.

Does it have any potential?

I have no idea about what species it is, do you?

    What a find! Great tree! For ID it might be helpful to post close ups of the buds and bark.

    That will look great in 3-4 years with refinement in between. No ID on the tree though 🤷🏽‍♂️

    *Yamadori* is what we call a tree that has been collected from the wild. Or a direct meaning is “mountain tree”

    Beautiful material. Looks like some type of oak species based on the buds and branch habit

    Great looking tree, but your soil is problematic

    If you cant get it into more airy soil, be careful to not overwater it. Keep it in a place where it gets dappled sun, under a tree is great.

    I confirm it’s probably an oak (also looking at the leaves it had all around).

    How much fine roots did you collect? If there are some, it has good chances. Oak is very very slow in most processes, and recovery is no different. However, it can be very sturdy once it settles. I would consider waiting 2 years before any work on this. At that point though you will probably just need a prune back/cleaning and it will look nice pretty fast.

    I second, it would have been better to put into some draining substrate but if you have a ball of his own soil and stick it onto pumice that may create issues in understanding when the organic soil is actually drying. Not saying you shouldn’t but be aware it’s a little complex. Perhaps I’d take my chances with his own soil, or maybe drop some pumice and mix it in with a wooden chopstick.

    This could be a show tree under 2 years! Nature has already done the work. WOW
