Gday all,

I have been doing a bit of reading on when the best time to re pot deciduous trees is. It makes sense to re pot and trim roots just as the buds of spring begin to extend etc and I have found this is a fairly easy time to recognize in your deciduous trees.

However, I have a few azaleas etc and am not sure on when the best time to re pot these would be and how to recognise the correct time within the bonsai itself. Obviously all species of trees/plants/shrubs are slighlty different to eachother but is there a main difference or any general rules to follow when repotting evergreens such as azaleas etc as opposed to deciduous ?

General rule for Azaleas is right after the flowers have withered Hutch.

Azaleas after flowering. You can do earlier if you take the flowers off, but if you do that you are better to not let it flower in the first place
