Pot up into this Ellis pot in the morning. The glaze on this pot is a magnifacent burnt, orange red. Contrasts nicely against the privets green.

Excellent stuff ant! That is some pretty taper right there!

This might be a silly question but I am intrigued about the soaking in seasol!
I have actually never heard of doing this before!! Is it common practice for trees when repotting?

I usually just yank out, go nuts at the roots, slap it back in and it goes flying! I assume being seasol it just gives it a boost?
