Thanks, Boon. This one was wired and planted in my mother's flower bed for 2 years, then dug up this spring. This was one of the first I did and didn't put enough initial bend in it. Now I'll see if I can correct that with additional bends. If not, and/or, I'll take layers and cuttings.
It has a thumb thick trunk now. I'm not sure if you can make it out, but there's a bit of red spray paint on some of the foliage where the utility crew came through to mark underground wires.
Wayne, I have better ones in my mother's flower bed right now. Better, with more bends, twists, etc. This one will probably go back in the ground next year and stay there 2-3 years before more major work.
