Hi everyone tomorrow i am going to be repotting my
favorite bourganvillea. Its my first time repotting
it in 3 years. Last time it was repotted i did not
use a particularly free draining mix since i didn't
know as much. It was quite dense for a bonsai mix.
However the tree has thrived in it. Anyway i was
hoping some of you might have some tips for repotting
bourganvillea and soil mix's you use for yours. I
have many soil components on hand.

Multiple sizes of Akadama
Pine bark mulch
Spagnum Moss
Red Lava rock
Gravel/silica sand
Common garden soil
Kanuma
Oak Leaf Mold

Id appreciate any suggestions you all might have.

I live in zone 7 "new york city" i bring my tree in
over the winter when the temps start to fall below the
50's. It is at least a 30 year old tree however it
has not always been in my collection. It has many
raised roots and has a hollowed trunk. Id also like
to get any advice you all have on treating this
weathered wood. The hollowed trunk was treated 3
years ago with lime sulfer but the effect has worn
away since then.

Thanks
Ben Griffin
