Pepper trees suck,  I had one in my back yard and tried for years to get it to stand up on its own (POS tree).  I finally fixed it with the chainsaw last summer.  >:D

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Also drive in a couple 3' tree watering stakes and get rid of the drippers or bubblers watering it. The roots will grow to where the water is.  :thumbup:
