"BAREFUL"
Language of "B"?
Option 01- Bare (as in "bareroots"), which is risky if you have just divided its roots. Keeping some original soil is always safer...
Option 02- Ful (as in "full of assurance", or better, "careful"), which is always advisable when repotting.
I used 70% Rhododendron soil mix & 30% Seramis and covered with Rhodo mix. I left as much old soil around the rootball as possible.BTW, in which soil mix have you planted the quartered azaleas?

Just check them and see whether the cutback was indeed how you want the basic structire of the the tree to be.
Nice to see someone who reads up and then has the guts to take bold steps. This is where the real learning comes in.

Aw! Maybe with one IĄŻll go to raise the roots. I need to figure out how to build a container for this. Maybe if I use a good diameter plumbing tube and I cutting down gradually?
I must feel it and live on to learn, but sometimes it costs lives. DonĄŻt praise me too much, cause IĄŻll became a swell headed elitist :side:Nice to see someone who reads up and then has the guts to take bold steps. This is where the real learning comes in.

Ohw, such a let down. I would love to have my emotions trampled by some 4 inch heels. Ah well. Back to boots and trees it is.
