Default hawthorn woes

Can you winch it back upright and prop it?


I could try to borrow a winch, but I don't think I could easily get the
angle right. There's a 5 foot stone wall just behind it, that forms a
square, so the winch would have to be quite far from the tree.

I could try and push it upright, but as I said it's difficult to get the
tractor into the spot. I'd be tempted to double stake it with 45 degree
angle stakes, were I to push it back up.
