This ash is very well established, probably 7 years in this pot or even longer. It has enormous character and feels very old. I am happy to add this to my collection.l The pot by Lubos Skoda will look good I think. It will be necessary to cut off about 50 % of the root ball. A well established ash can take this, no problem. Good ashes are extremely rare. Actually I don't know of any good one so far. Can't wait for April next year.
