I have a Fukien Tea tree which was left on my porch by who knows about 4 months ago.
At the time it was growing wild but in great condition so I did a little prunning. It recovered quickly with new shoots and lots of random white flowers everywhere. Confident with the trees health I decided (4 months later) to repot it from the horrid peat moss pot it was planted in. Upon removing the tree from it's pot I noticed it had a circling root around it's trunk I removed. Nothing major but it support maybe an 1/8 of it's overall root mass. 2 days later (wishing I could post a picture) it is wilting.
So.... I know after doing some reading that Fukien hate root trimming. My question is is there any hope or something I can do to try and save the tree?
