Real-time bougie prune & repot, select a pot!

[atlarsenal]

Ok Bnutters, I’m pruning and potting this bougie right now!

Chime in on your vote of pots. I’m thinking one of the blue ones on the left. Put in your votes because this happening fast! I’ll give you some real-time progression pics.

I sort of need to see a final shape after pruned to decide. I do feel one of the blue ones...for the other two pots are for a cascade style.

Come on and vote, I’m gonna give y’all a few minutes while I refill my hummingbird feeders.

It’s gonna get cut back pretty hard. It will be pretty much a sling-shot after pruning.

I’m liking that one too. That’s a new Sam Miller I just got.

That was my first choice before I added in the Sam Miller.

Here’s the first round with the pruners.

Second round. Now to defoliate.

 

[M. Frary]

The unglazed one.

The unglazed one.

Far right? Or light blue, third from the left?

 

[atlarsenal]

@milehigh_7 I left a few of the tiny leaves, that ok or should I go ahead and take them off?

 

[atlarsenal]

Crime scene evidence!

 

[Cadillactaste]

This one.

 

[atlarsenal]

Here’s the two finalists, I could go either way.

 

[atlarsenal]

@M. Frary ? Your the deciding vote but I’m thinking like Darlene. Hard to beat a Sam Miller pot.

 

[Cadillactaste]

Set the tree in both pots. And see which you personally like. I think both could work. I like the shape and feel of the lower photo. But the top one has charm as well. Personal preference...I think.
