Pistacia lentiscus

Hey all,
We had a large Mastic tree that was planted way too close to the brick wall which had started to damage it so before things got any worse I decided it was time to go. The upside to this is if it survives I should have an interesting tree to play around with. It is by far the largest tree I have dug and it has way more character than I originally thought it would.
For now I'm just hoping it will recover. I'm about 50/50 optimistic with this one.
Here it is before a trim. AFter a bit of a cut back. And finally potted up after a couple of hours digging.
