I was only a pound from home base. Gone for 7 years.
It's strangled itself to death in that tiny pot I'm afraid

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Thank you.. No hope of return if potted up.
I doubt it.
Starting at the top of the tree, cut a bit off.
If you can see some green near the bark, then amazingly it's still alive.
If it's all brown, cut down a bit lower and check again.
But tbh even if you do find a bit of green somewhere, I think it's a gonner...

No green on
any of the cuts I have made? Thank u for the help.
Oh dear.
If you get another, keep it in a much bigger pot. Your pine has grown lots of roots and there's no room for them in such a small pot. Trees in pots aren't generally a good idea unless you're prepared to keep fiddling with them.
