bonsaiTALK Community - View Single Post - My story and a few questions as well!

thank you mcspeed - and while it does have a bulbous root, I was reading that these can develop aerial roots if given the proper environment. That is something I would definately be interested in, but then again, I'm new and I could have been reading things wrong. Not sure on the style that I want yet (looking at quite a few so far). As far as the soil - I'm going to try and do it that way, but for now, I need to figure out if it needs to be quickly transplanted to give it the best chance of survival or not.

So, if anyone knows - should I repot it right away to try and make sure this tree will survive, or leave it in the pot till spring? (I posted a picture w/ the soil if you want to look at it).
