Helloooo.
So i just bought this cypress and it was only when i got home that i noticed that it has been grafted. Pretty sure it has. Thats something im always on the lookout for and wont buy if its been grafted but somehow i didnt see it. Its not the worst graft. What to dooo?? Is there anything i can do with the bark to make it a better transition? Maybe a semi hollow trunk carving? Return it?
Thanks!

What's wrong with it? I can't see any problem it looks quite a decent size tree and has a good nebari,

I thought it was hard to tell too. So far, I see no reason for concern.
