Hi Boa,

Eric got the mulch for me. It was aged and smelt really sweet. The small tree is a Meyer lemon.

Post 25 pic 2 shows signs of being planted too shallow as a seed.
In shallow planted palms, newly emerging
adventitious roots arising from the base of the stem
axis are exposed to dry air, rather than moist soil and
this dry environment inhibits their normal
development. Only those roots already in the soil at
the time of transplanting will ever support the palm
and these are usually insufficient to support the
weight of a large mature palm.
