[IBC] Repotting
As I have mentioned, my hardy trees spend the winter in an unheated sunporch.
I try to keep the temperature between 30 & 45 F. The trees are all accessible. Some of them wake up pretty early. I have the following trees which I plan to repot. Japanese maple Cedar of Lebanon Tsuga canadensis 'Minuta' Prunus 'Hally Jolivette' Chaenomeles japonica 'Chojubai' Crabapple 'Jacqueline Hillier' elm Miniature Mugo pine 'Broadmoor' juniper. How soon can I repot them? Can any of them be repotted in January? Thanks, Iris Happy holidays ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Boon Manakitivipart++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

Brent - the only way I can root prune at this time of year in zone 7 is to
place the newly pruned material in my unheated garage after the operation. If I leave it out in 20F temp., I lose it every time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brent Walston" To: Sent: Saturday, December 18, 2004 8:43 PM Subject: [IBC] Repotting Iris I don't see any problem repotting them at any time now. I have started repotting everything here and will continue repotting with and without root pruning for the remainder of the winter. Temperature swings here are 20 to 65F for the most part. We do get some root growth during the winter, and I expect you will have enough root activity to prevent any dying off of cut root ends assuming a well drained mix.

I try not to let my sunporch go below 25 F. I have this wonderful little thermostat which is set between 35 and 45. If the weather forecast is for temps below 10, I plug a little heater into the thermostat, & set it on low heat on the other side of the porch. The area where the trees are goes down to about freezing. Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "A tree never hits an automobile except in self defense." - Woody Allen |

I will say, however, that _I_ don't pot down here before late February.

I do not think that jannuary in NY is the right season
normally you repot when buds come out is the best one or when the root tips starst getting swollen and white.. this is generally in febbruary march in norther emisphere zone 7 Maple in febbruary march for apples the good season is oct nov or after flowering in late april cedars are very delicate I should do them in march april or may Prunus after flowering Pines in april may all have different periods anyway if they wake up early when buds starts swelling & opening is the right moment wrote: As I have mentioned, my hardy trees spend the winter in an unheated sunporch.
