    Need advice on my recently repotted Chinese Privet (Ligustrum Sinensis)

    My Chinese Privet wasn’t vigourous at all this spring, so I decided to emergency repot to get an eye on the roots (it’s normally very vigorous this time of year) It was ridiculously root bound, so I did some pretty serious root pruning and a repot. After a few waters, I’m worried the pot might...

    Is it too late to repot trident?

    Hi all, I was traveling and just got home to my trident, ready for spring! I did intend to repot this one this year. I’m growing it out in an Anderson flat and it’s been three years or so, so I expect it to need some heavy root work. Am I too late?

    Should I repot?

    6 days ago I was at Lowe's to get some potting soil and couldn't resist the price of their "bonsai" trees. I got a fukien tea. I know everyone hates them but I couldn't resist for only $20 and I previously had one for 1 year that did well until I moved. I live sort of close to Houston, TX, zone...
