Repotting continued.

I love this tall earthenware urn. The lady palm housed here for 5 or so years had become cramped as shoots were coming up at all angles.. though I tried to remove these every so often.

Unwanted, random shoots can be pulled out with enough root to plant. These would be free $, but ladies are slow growers. The impatient among us should buy a mature plant.


New shoots will hopefully fill this out
Because the root ball was large then mouth of urn it was a pain in the ass to remove.

Shook off as much soil as I could trimmed up stranglers, filled 1" lava rock, repotted in light soil full of hummus. Tied up on trellis to keep it straight while it's growing in. There is a near constant breeze up here.
