Posted by x_nyc on 6/8/2007, 5:48 pm, in reply to "Good Cycads for Containers" I have about 14 different varieties, all in pots. A good container size is one that fits the entire rootball - 15G is too big a jump from 4x4. It is better to increase to a slightly smaller pot size every time you repot, otherwise there is excess soil and excess moisture. --Previous Message--
