I finally got the opportunity to repot a tree today! I bought this ume (Prunus mume) or Japanese flowering apricot, at the
Bay Island Bonsai exhibit last January.
It was needing a repot badly, since it had been potted up in a cheap pot for sale, which broke during the winter. My god, it's been a long hard winter here.
These trees bloom in January in the Bay area, but this one had no signs of spring until today, when I noticed just a bit of bud movement. Now was the time to carve a bit and repot!
The first two pics are of the tree last January, when I took it to work to give it good sun. It had started to bud, and I don't really have a good place in our house for indoor trees.
