New guy fro Mi. So after a bit of time doing research and looking at countless blogs and websites, i bought a tree. Its a ficus nerifolia. My question is should i let it be and keep it alive , work on nebari or repot with fresh soil? I dont have a plan for it just yet. If you share your wisdom, it will be greatly appreciated.

Here is pic

Plant it in the ground next spring, comb out the roots and maybe plant on a tile to develop the nebari.
Wait 5+ years and then worry about everything else, I'm sure you'll know what to do when that time comes.

U sure?

Sorry, plant it in progressively larger pots.
It will also take a lot longer this way.

Subject of many many arguments....

I know this is not helpful in any way, but I can tell from the sticker on the pot that this is from the same grower as my Fukien Tea tree. I purchased it in a general nursery in the suburbs of Philadelphia though. My tree puts out new branches like a weed. I hope yours is just as healthy. Enjoy.
