Chinese Wisteria – September 2022 potting

First up… let’s watch spring come on.

Hmm… well, I spent the six weeks between these photos watching those buds swell from fingernail size to thumb size. But apparently, not taking photos.

Anyway, after vacillating for most of the past year, I’ve decided it’s time for this one to go into a real pot. Here’s the starting point.

This is one week after the last photo. The flowers jumped out.

The Oxalis gets everywhere, so this will be a bare rooting.

Those grow bags do a great job at developing fine root systems.

Chinese Wisteria – September 2022 potting — And there we go.

I’m hopeful that after recovering from the heavy root pruning, this will develop a solid canopy which will really shade the base. There’s still buds to come out, so I’m hoping I got in early enough.

EDIT: it’s a week after the potting.
