As this is gonna be legendary tree, I am starting a new thread for it already as I see the buds appearing up and down the trunk and leaves opening at the ends of smaller branches. I know that trees might push new buds and leaves from recourses they have and if there´s not enough of them they will die eventually, but I believe that with proper work done when collecting, using sweating technique and proper aftercare the chances for survival are big enough :)
