She is busy making a few more designs to list in my etsy store.  Stay tuned! :-)

~ so what should I do with this one...

...Northern Red Oak tree given to Nicholas during his high school graduation ceremony.



Can I keep it in a pot, like that little white pine tree next to it in the photo?  I have already repotted it once since the June 20th graduation, and it has since grown the 4 new red leaves at the top.

Should I plant it in the ground like we did with that (very large) white pine tree given to Nicholas in 3rd grade?



Any suggestions?
