I have this Stewartia Pseudocamellia and Japanese Umbrella Tree, and want to transplant each of them into the pot seen next to it.
Questions -
When, or under what conditions is it appropriate to transplant them?
What about pruning - I think the Stewartia is about as large as is appropriate for the space. When, or under what conditions is it appropriate to prune them?
The roots for both are quite pot-bound - should I prune the roots? If so, can you suggest a good resource for learning about root-pruning?
What do you recommend for the soil in the new pots?

Thank you for looking - I welcome any and all comments!
