JBP, #2505

Apr 2025 Repotted

  • Realized the original pot drainage hole was small. Roots climbed down the slope.

  • Soil was generally wet, so recommended to mix in more pumice & lava.

  • Moved to a large colander.

  • Tight root ball and base roots, but uncrossed some roots that circled.

  • Angled the base, engaging less perpendicular—elevating the apex.

  • Dustin & Gio encouraged more curves and wiring would work with or without tape.

Acquired: Mammoth 2025, $50.
