Hi everyone!

Just a quick update about this tree.
I did the repot at the beginning of Spring before buds start to open and the tree didnt skip a beat.
I worked the shin and removed a small exterior part of the root mass, nothing aggresive.

The tree is now thriving using all the water in this huge containe.
I would now letting it grow without reduction so it gain more mass.
The upper branches are already out of balance anyway as a member suggest they completely have to be rebuilt.
The tree did back bud on old wood pretty much everywhere so nothing is lost!
