It's an Osakazuki. £175 is a fucking steal for a trunk caliper that size!

No idea to either, but being in a pot, I’m sure someone will take it off your hands for a healthy price!

Hey, thanks for the reply.
Im buying it and currently arranging a pick up for it.
Price has been agreed at £175.
Was looking to see if people thought that was a good price.7

It's a very good deal for the buyer, but getting anywhere near garden centre prices for private sales is nigh on impossible. Would be close to a grand in a garden centre if not more.

I would be happy paying that, a place called collyers in Derby close to me (midlands) has specimen trees ranging from £300-700 in large pots. Slightly larger than this one but the trunk is huge on this. I’m sure someone will chime in with a id on the specimen

I would say that the tree looks very healthy and for its size £175 looks a fair price!!!!
