Advice Preserving a Memorial Tree

Three years ago I lost a baby and planted a Redbud tree as a memorial. We had to cut it down yesterday after finding out invasive Ambrosia Beetles killed it. Is there anything I can possibly do to keep the tree? Is there anything way to preserve it somehow? I am picturing pouring concrete into a beautiful large pot and keeping it somewhere near our door or in our garden. Is that possible? Will it completely disintegrate after a couple years? Any advice and ideas are incredibly appreciated. submitted by /u/SalemsLittleBrother [link] [comments]
