This is what the big baby looked like when I first picked it up. The branches are bare, there are no leaves, and no roots. It looks like firewood for cooking. In fact, it is called the fraxinus chinensis! If you grow it into a bonsai, its leaves will be lush and green and priceless, no wonder it is known as the "King of Bonsai"!

1. Trim the stump

Check the tree stump carefully. If there is rot at the roots or branches, trim them off. Then use a knife to cut around the roots, leaving a circle of slanted cuts about 1 cm wide to expose fresh roots, which will be more conducive to the growth of new roots.

2. Soak the roots in carbendazim solution

Soak the roots of the tree stump in a solution of carbendazim. Apply carbendazim to the wounds on the branches for sterilization. Take them out after half an hour and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

3. Apply river sand to the cut ends of branches

Apply river sand evenly on the cut above the branch, filling the cut completely.

4. Seal the cut ends of branches with plastic bags

Wrap a thicker plastic bag around the cut, and then tie the bag with a rope. This will retain moisture, promote the growth of new shoots, and increase the survival rate.

5. Prepare the rooting powder and alcohol

Buy some rooting powder, and prepare alcohol and a small dish.

6. Pour the rooting powder into the dish

Tear open the rooting powder package and pour it into a dish.

7. Pour alcohol into the rooting powder

Rooting powder dissolves better in alcohol. If alcohol is not available, water can also be used.

8. Mix the alcohol and rooting powder evenly.

Use a small stick to mix the rooting powder and alcohol evenly.

9. Pour the rooting powder solution into the basin

Find a large basin that is large enough to hold the tree stump. Pour clean water into the basin, just fill 1/3 of the basin. Then pour the rooting powder solution into the basin, stir it, and allow it to dissolve evenly in the water.

10. Place the roots in a basin of water

Place the roots of the tree stump upright in water. If the stump is relatively fresh, soak it for 2-4 hours. If it is not so fresh, you can extend it to about 12 hours to allow the stump to absorb enough water.

11. Pelvic floor pad mesh

Find a larger flower pot and place a mesh over the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot to prevent soil from leaking.

12. Layered soil preparation

As shown in the picture below, put a mixture of river sand and plain soil on the bottom of the pot, occupying half of the volume of the pot. The ratio of river sand: plain soil is 3:2, and then cover it with pure river sand.

13. Plant the stump in a pot

After the tree stump has been soaked in rooting water, take it out and plant it shallowly in a pot.

14. Pile a circle of pure river sand around the roots

Find a cardboard, insert it into the river sand around the root, tie it with a rope, and then pour pure river sand into the cardboard, making it like the picture below. Pour the used rooting water into the flowerpot and water it thoroughly.

15. Put on a plastic bag

Put a plastic bag on the tree stump, remember to poke 3 holes for ventilation. This can increase humidity and temperature, promote the germination of roots and new shoots. Place it in a cool and ventilated place, keep the soil slightly moist, and new shoots will grow in about half a month! Then put it in a sunny place!
