Found a Bald Cypress patch growing from a broken water line.

Will these survive in NJ easily? If so, Id take one or two. Dont mind paying shipping.

I am in southern NJ and they love it here. Just keep them super wet; I have mine in standing water as saplings and they grow extremely fast.

Bag method not during heat dome has a higher success rate.

Sure. Working on getting them rooted and then potted should be ready by fall.

Not almost full sun. No humidity bags. The proper method is when pulled have a cup of spring water near by. Put the lil guy in it immediately. Also dig them up with a spoon dont just pull em. I nice homeless guy actually had spoons on him and gave me one to use. What a great city.

Message me when this heat dome goes away. I'll keep checking them on my lunch break till then. If I see New Orleans Sewage and Water board trucks that means we have atleast a year before the repairs are made. Im gonna spoon dig them if im shipping straight from the ground.

Can't wait! got a pot picked out and everything for em haha.
