Resin I did think of that, but it wasn't really worth it and the roots had lifted, so it would have been hit and miss to get it to re-establish.

Coppicing should be done in the 2nd year or it may kill the tree anyway.

The new one is much slower growing, so perhaps will establish a root system able to keep up with the growth, I like them to grow tall! It's a snow gum and should have white bark.

On a brighter note, I had a poppy open today, one of my own crosses. The stem is short, (very), and a new bud has popped open with still green petals.
