To day was nice and warm and I thought to do some re potting. I have to do it in stages as getting rid of old soil is a bit of a problem now.Mrs Pup used to take it for her palms and ferns but they do not need soil changing. So we have to do it in the rubbish bin, being careful of too much weight.

Any way here are two that got done today along with a Babingtonia .

Cheers Pup

Probably not so much of a compliment coming from me Pup, but for what its worth, that Baeckea is a real porker mate - love it! You got it spot on with that one!

I have to agree here Pup. The Babingtonia is a wonderful tree and the pot/tree combination works really well. :tu:

Well Hi ya, you do now how to make an old bloke happy :worship: . I think that of this tree, as do Mrs Pup and my Bonsai Son. It is one of two that are never to be sold.

The other interesting fact, are the comments on the Pat Kennedy Pot which was made for this tree.

When Bill Valavanis critiqued it last September, it is the one thing he did not like. But this is what he got from me :tounge: .

Thanks Guys you have made me happy for the rest of the day :whistle: :cool:

Cheers Pup
