Product Description
Workshop Overview
Repotting isn’t glamorous, but it’s one of the most important skills in bonsai.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll repot your own tree from start to finish, learning how to work the root ball, remove old soil safely, comb out roots correctly, and secure the tree into fresh substrate with proper tie-down technique.
