Time for a smaller box

How long has it been in the other box?
Was the original box on the large size or were the roots located so far away?
 
That's a killer one of a kind tree. Seriously I love it.

I tend to stick to the recommended repot times myself but I see more and more people repotting out of the accepted optimal times with good results. Without a real winter in costal California I don't think it matters much when you repot.
 
Thanks! The first pic is the first box the tree was placed in after collection. It's been in that box for 2-3 years. Next repot I'll likely put it into an unglazed Bonsai pot. Yes I can re pot pretty much anytime fall to Early spring because of our mild winters. If I lived somewhere where it got colder I would wait until late winter/early spring right before the buds swell on deciduous.
 
Thanks Aaron, the new pics is not that impressive. Lighting was not as good and I took it before I re-attached some guide wires. Tree was tilted forward which means that the tree needs some re-adjusting. I'll have to post a pic next time I wire it, likely in summer.

Yenling,

This looks like a Magician's trick where he saws a lady in half!

So, I think you need to name this one "Magic"!

If you had left the box intact, you could have just sawn down, and put on a new side!
