So, yeah.
I bought that tree from a local nursery today, brought it home, put it in a nice little hole, in a nice little wind protected spot in my yard.
And then, I noticed this:
So pissed off with myself. And the nursery guys. How could I not seen that when I was picking it?
Anyway, i did use a very sharp clean knife to cut the string off and remove it completely, without avoiding some cuts on the trunk.
Anyone knows if those trees recover easily, or should i consider it a lost case?
I did cover the wound. Good idea or bad idea?
Why, oh why have i not seen that in the first place?
