I would be interested in hearing other views too. For Sarrs. I believe that
late winter/early spring is the time to transplant, as repotting tends to
initiate new growth in the Sarrs. I am gearing up to start in the next week or
so. I like to do it before I see the season's new growth. Neps. I generally
do the same, but I can afford to wait a month.
