A 15 gallon pot filled with clay and a tree with touchy roots may be my limit......

    Yea, but look at some of the cast members involved with their answers.

    And did you really plant that.....by yourself? No help? I'm impressed John. Maybe a Pelagodoxa next week? :lol:

    Jeff,

    Dug the hole, dragged it up the hill (actually a series of lifts and carries...thing must have weighed a hundred pounds or more), cut the bottom off the pot, sliced the pot up the side except for a tab, arranged it and cut the tab....in place. Filled the hole watered it in, set the irrigation and walked away.

    Kicked my tail....done for the day after that. Not bad for old and fat, I'd say.

    Good heavens, Beep! Leave you alone for a New York Nanosecond and look at what happens.

    Let's see how it does over the winter.......

    BTW, a hill is a place where the ground goes up.......it is difficult to manage when carrying things that weigh as much as you do....and yes, there are things that weigh as much as me.
