I think it looks great! That’s an impressive trunk for a larch, did you grow this yourself or purchase it from someone?

@Tim_in_Denver thank you, was purchased 2 years ago as far as I am aware it was collected. The root system isn’t very good below the soil two structural root just go straight down, will probaly have to air layer to get into a decent container size
