Hi,
Got myself a little easter present last week and it finally arrived!
It was advertised as a pre-bonsai Field maple of about 8 years old and 25cm height.
The buds are swelling a little I think but not that much movement yet. I took the opportunity to repot it as it was very root bound.
I didn't have any grow containers left, so for now did a little pruning and gave it a bigger pot then it came in. Maybe next spring I can slippot into a proper growbox?
The roots/nebari aren't bad but could use some work I think. Maybe try to get them flatter? I didn't see any taproots
But for now just little bit of pruning to give them a more balanced spread and removed to downward growing ones... should I have taken of more?
Anyway, as always I remembered to take pictures way to late. I'll take more tomorrow with some daylight
