One of the #HoneyLocust sprouts fell over in the vigorous #Portland wind last night. I was hoping the roots from the former tree were strong enough to hold them up without support, but I guess not.

I tied the tree back up, so here's hoping that it recovers, and snapping the roots in that direction doesn't lead to it being permanently weak on that side so it falls over again in a few years. Alternately, I could cut it down and start again from another sprout, but who knows what is best.

I picked the original #HoneyLocust up from #BurlAndGrain on Friday, where it was made in to a fantastic live-edge table and benches!

Now we just need to finish designing and build an enclosed patio for it to live outside, yet protected from the weather.

The garden center doesn't sell any bamboo poles longer than 12 feet, so I guess the baby groots are just going to do what they want above that point.

Also, wow, that thing grew around 4 feet in two and a half weeks. I heard that a #HoneyLocust can grow fast, but this is ridiculous.
