Myrtle,
I cannot tell a lie. I won't tell you I have been doing bonsai for eight years if it had only been three (it's really ten) and I won't tell you I have lots of flowering bonsai. This is the only one, so I am just getting started. I do know that repotting for azaleas is best done just after flowering. Ume can also be repotted as soon as the flowers start to fade, unless my memory is playing tricks on me.
