Hi all,I have a Hakea which i need to root prune and repot,I've done it in late august the previous time which was around three years ago but now that I'm really taking a lot more interest in this hobby of ours and the fact that the tree is doing well i want to get it right.I also have a river red gum which needs to be done.Any advice greatly appreciated. :)

Any time thru the warmer months are great time to repot

Defoliate or cut back hard to force the tree to think it is dormant and it will shoot back well and then repot.
