CAN I GROW THIS INDOORS FOR AWHILE? Chinese (Saucer) Magnolia 6"

PIC FOR ATTENTION: Mine does NOT have leaves on it at this time

I got a sapling of a Chinese magnolia and I read you can grow them indoors in a big pot for a few years. I will be moving in about a year so I don’t want to have to dig it up.

It’s winter now though, so the plant is in hibernation and I don’t want to mess that up. How do I proceed?

Is there something wrong with my lemon tree?

I'm at Sydney. I'm sure when or how it's planted, but the tree are already here when I moved in at about 2015. It is getting plenty of sun, but I don't really water it. I don't think there are any plastics or landscape fabric

What is this?

The vine like thing wrapping the tree, what is it? It looks like the tree despite it being long and vine-ey. Never seen before! I saw several on the ground too.

Agarwood tree

Can anyone with knowledge of agarwood trees, let me know if this is a mature tree and should i sell this?

For context, this tree, three of them, have been growing in my grandmothers backyard for over a decade now, when i compare them to other agrwood trees i see online, these one look comparatively thin, now Idk much about their species and all, but i know a few dealers here, would it be wise to contact em and get these sold or do i wait more?

PS sorry if this isnt the correct subreddit for posts like these

I was in the garage cutting new fence for my 6ish year old apple tree, came back with the fence and my goats had eaten through all the bark! Any way to save this tree?

The lost pinecone

Roughly 6 inches long. This was found in Mount Hood National Forest. It is not familiar to me, I'm guessing someone threw it out of their car. We were surrounded by Doug firs, western red cedar, hemlocks, and sitkas.

Safe to prune leader?

We love to decorate our outdoor spruce but the leader is getting very tall. Is it safe to trim it shorter without causing it to branch out?

Does anyone else find Mistletoe extremely disturbing?

Hello there, sorry if this post doesn't belong in this subreddit. I just wanted to know if anyone else feels the same way I do about mistletoe, because all I've gotten is weird looks from people I asked in real life.

I don't feel anything when I look at the parasitic plant up-close, but the sight of a Mistletoe infection on a tree makes my skin crawl...

I saw a silhouette of a tree in the dark yesterday, and the Mistletoe was so dense, it looked like pure mass. I still can't stop thinking about it
