exerpt from Cape Honeysuckle Photo History
Re-potted the Cape Honeysuckle, for better or worse..I found this little unglazed clay pot by accident some time ago, but really didn't have any one tree in mind.
The Honeysuckle was long overdue for a repot, so opportunity met requirement. Because so much time had elapsed since the tray-potting, I had to do more root pruning than I had anticipated or wanted.
He seems like he has come through the "surgery" well & is even shown new growth since I re-potted him (lighter green color leaves in photo)
Because the trunk has an obvious bend, I've always planted this guy offset from center & adhered to that convention with this repot, but I may change my mind.
I will let him rest now, & acclimate himself to the new container. I do like the round shape or perhaps it's just the newness..we'll see as time goes on.
