Those wood boxes look great. I have to make maybe 2-3 dozen here myself before the maples awake.

Whow, that's a lot ! I've 4 at the moment, and maybe 2-3 more to do the coming weeks.
But I use plastic trays too, a bit like Andersons flats, and they work great too !

Yes, I have a bunch of Japanese maples I am growing out. I'll post some pics of my wooden boxes when I make them.

Update on the 2 projects, they both grew a long upper branche, and have some new buds for future use.

Comming repotting I´ll check the roots and will have to change the planting angle to correct for the upright second parts of the trunks...

Tried to change the angle on both with wire, but with the first I felt that the second part trunk would come loose so I stopped trying and with the second I overdid and it cracked
I´ve applied paste around the wound and will have to see if it will hold...
