Athens, Greece: hot dry summer (Zone 10a)
skylark said: it's not a problem if you uppot without disturbing the roots: try to pull it out by gently rolling on the side to tease the root-ball out. and then just put it in a larger pot with soil intact. Fill the sides (and at the bottom too). water in well. It is ok to do so with very fast growing plants when the soil was changed recently.
post a pic of root-ball if you can: with this plants you should have a lot of roots there.


You were right. The pot was full of roots. I'm amazed at how fast they grew. All looked bright white and healthy. I had to untangle them. I didn't take a photo cos I did it at night.
The new pot is quite larger but I bet I'll have to repot again in September! I used a mix of regular compost, seramis and pine bark.
