I took the tree indoors and gave it a trim with the baby scissors, then decided it was time to finally repot it. I didnt restyle it as yet, I want it to settle first and see how it goes. Besides, it hardly had any roots to speak of yet was wedged in the pot by a thick root that went round the rootball. I teased it out and trimmed it. Then i reoriented it so that the solitary branch was coming from the side not the back, and put it back in with fresh compo(jonn innes #2 with vermiculite, and a used tea bag covering the drainage hole)
Just hope it doesnt die a death on me now!
