  • After a drastic restyling of the Ficus benjamina tree, David Easterbrook proceeds to repot it into a container more suitable for its life as a bonsai.
    He finds a precious and antique Tokoname pot that fits the humongous root ball and gives a handful of repotting tips along the way.

    Awesome series of videos about this ficus! I really appreciate your knowledge and especially your stamina. I am 69 and think you might be around my age or older. Apparently one gains energy from doing bonsai which I have been doing three whole weeks now. lol Again thank you for sharing.

    G'Day mate. Do you find root work is easier dry or moist. Do you ever hose the roots off instead of using chopsticks??? As per the using finer soils in warmer climates works here in Australia where we can have wwk straight of 40c plus (105f plus)

    Great series! I'm looking forward taking a N3 level course with the SBPM someday with you:) did you make your own soil mix or is there somewhere that I can get it too? (I'll be repoting a little procosma next summer) thanks!

    Regarding the scythe, I haven't had any problem with tight overgrown roots of any of my plants yet. Maybe another 10 years...
    And I still wonder if my fingers would be a fairly good fertilizer.

    Isn’t this a bad time to repot in Canada?

      Not recommended. As mentioned a few times during the series I have to store away this Ficus for a few months in a warm greenhouse and I have very limited space so the repotting was necessary. The ideal time would have been end of June
