Around 5 years ago, a friend brought me a laburnum tree that had been out of the ground for 3 or 4 days. I had a hole dug in my backyard and planted it. We supported it, but it didn't do very well. I can't count how many times I would look out and it was lying flat on the ground - in all seasons. I tied it to several large trees nearby, but after 3 years I cut the support lines and left it to nature.
It has survived since then despite the damage to the bark that was caused by the supports I used. This year, it has the most flowers yet so I am hoping that it has finally stabilized and will continue to thrive.
