I bought this at Bunnings the other day and would like some opinons. Should I pot it up a size or put it in the ground. I don't want a great big thick trunk as I have to be able to lift these pots from time to time, so don't want something too heavy. It's a nice size now and would love to put it in a nice bonsai pot, but in doing that I'd have to cut the roots back. Seeing as it's full of buds I don't think that would be a good idea. The mix it's in now, if dry, is as light as a feather so I don't think there's much sustinence in it. Should I just pot it up a size with the least interference and add some nice healthy mix to it till it has finished flowering???
