Hey Bluewasp!

The tree came in today. Unfortunately it did not travel too well. Amputated tap root, no feeder roots. I immediately called plant911 (my son) and he came right over and transported it to intensive care (his home). If it can be saved he can do it. All we can do now is wait.
Thanks so much for sending it. Please shoot me a PM let me know what I owe ya.

OK, cool. I will put $10 in the Food Bank jar for you like I did for Steve, good Karma doncha know. I think it is the correct tree, I did not think to ask my son Mike. I will ask him and post back.
Thanks again,
Harold

Ok..

I hope it is. I found three but the other two, with more roots, didn't live more then two days.

thanks. If I see anymore on my trips to the southern parts of VA, I'll pull them out and let you know.
