Curtis,
* As Rips said above there are reasons to repot a tree. You may need to correct a faulty nebari(surface roots). *Or you may have a tree that has used up all available space for root growth. *Or you may have a soil that you know is lousy and want to change it. *Or you may have root rot and need to clear out dead and diseased roots.
* Do you have one of these type of situations? *If not you may be allright without repotting till spring of 2003. *Either way I wouldn't do any thing untill what you consider to be spring in your area.
