I repotted my Kingsville today, it really was not due one, but I was unhappy with the way the soil was draining and it did not seem a healthy as usual so I went ahead and changed the soil.

Here it is before the surgery.  I am training it to look like a "live oak".

The soil removed and roots combed out.  This is less than one years growth, I wish the top grew as fast as the bottom.

The roots pruned and ready to go back into the pot.

I did not have a chance to take a picture of the final product as I had grill duty this afternoon and ran out of day light.  It went back into the same pot and is potted just a little higher.

What do you think?

Thanks

I really like it.I find Boxwood difficult because they always need larger pots than what I would like to put them in.there root systems are so vigourous for small plants.I like your tree very much.
