This method cures a bent tree and preserves them.
After cleaning the trees (removing dead parts and leafs) I boil every tree for about 30 minutes.
this is a single boil of the one tree above
Than the trees are dried for 24 hours upside down with weights to hold straight. Since I work
in the EMS field I can get plenty of hemostates free.
after boiling and drying the same tree
Once dried they are ready for flocking. Soak the tree in either matte medium,
diluted Elmer's or modge podge to a very thin liquid.
Flock the now soaked tree in your choice of flocking.
And hang again to dry.
when its dried for 3 hours or so you have a tree ready to plant.
