Hi all,
Here is a recently purchased Acer Deshojo of mine. It is my first and so I plan on using this post to keep track of its progression.
Now the leaves are starting to drop you can see its structure a bit better. It is roughly 35cm high but only 15mm wide at the current soil level.
The current plan is to repot into a much wider, probably not any deeper pot in spring and let it grow.
I would like it to eventually settle around this height so I figure I at least need to double the trunk size.
While it is growing I will also aim to begin to train certain buds/ young branches so when the time comes to style I will hopefully have the beginnings of branches where I want them.
What do you all think. Anything else I should be considering doing over the next year or 2?
