Some big tree repots this spring!

Posted on April 5, 2022 by John Hanby

This year was one of those where a lot of my trees were in need of repotting so I had no option but to get stuck in and meet the challenge head on.

The rootball on my Euonymous is simply solid!

Easy to see why it was drying quickly and was hard to take water.

It just looks so much better in the fresh compost.

A little undignified in this picture!

And here is the reason why

Back in position and ready for the growing season.

Again it just looks so much better

Good growth has produced plenty of healthy roots

Another happy tree

I feel happy too knowing I have at least 4 or 5 years now before I have to consider this task again!
