Seedling
As you can see from my previous posts in this forum last September, I had picked up two severely distressed bald cypresses from a local nursery for a song. Thanks to all who gave me such excellent advice on how to revitalize them! ( Place them in morning sun, and leave them alone thru the winter!). 
Now, Spring is nearly here and I am once again asking advice from BC Wizards...
Left to my own devices, I would trunk chop each of the two at about 2', repot, do some fairly heavy root work, and lightly prune to establish a new leader, etc. in the next month or so. However..I am a bit concerned about that much work being done at once..ie: will it harm the tree? Slow down future development? For info I am east of Atlanta in zone 8a. Appreciate greatly any advice.
