I found this along the tracks a while back around late May. Did some hard cuts to it got in a pot. I don't know if it's worth it. Does this tree have any potential?
Also, I'm in Southeast PA and it was around a lot of Scots or Reds I'm not sure. If an identification is possible that be awesome too. It's a two needle MFP

.. your question is : does this tree has potential.
What did you see in it , why did you dig it up?
Second: PA doesn't mean a thing to everyone not living in the US....what would you make of me saying I live in eastern A?
I don’t know Apple.. Maybe I misunderstand the definition of Yamadori, but I think those are not young trees. I believe we choose and dig up them, cause harsh Mother Nature did the majority of the work.

You are correct, Felidae. This is NOT a Yamadori.
"not every tree dug from the Mountainside is classed as Yamadori. It has to show the battle of growing many years in its form, with its old cracked bark and its trunk twisted by the elements. Such trees are not easy found and the title, Yamadori, is not given lightly"
I used the word to point out that it was found in the wild. On train tracks where the state comes and kills every tree that could potentially touch a train, so anything I didn't hurt mother nature I gave this tree another chance. It's not much of anything. There's another I'm getting in the fall if it hasn't gotten hacked down that's at least a 40 year old juniper.that been cut and cut but keeps coming back. I just can't get to the root. It's under a ton of rocks.

Then call it 'found in the wild'. It's not a Yamadori.

Could be interesting - or a waste of time. Got a picture?
