Repotted the Chinese Quince. It really needed it as it had been potted up in "black mud". The good thing is the roots came clean very easy and required minimal pruning. It likes moisture so I added a fair amount of Akadama to the coarse mix. The tree has a nice trunk, it fruited nicely last year, and the bark color and flecking is spectacular.
On the minus, the branches are not great, nebari stinks, and there is NO ramification. Ramification is what is on the plate this year, and trying to chase the branches back so they are not so lankey. The Tokoname pot from the Yamaki (sp?) is quite nice and I think works much better than the round one.
