Repotting Cyms

Some of my cyms hadn't been doing well and didn't bloom this past season. I hadn't done much with them for 4 years so today I started a repotting project. Boy did they need new mix. Fortunetly the roots looked good but it wouldn't have been much longer before I would have had a big root rot problem. The only bark left of the original mix was what was on top. The rest of the bark had broken down into moisture retainning, root roting soil. I did the four easiest ones today. The bigger ones will have to be divided, probably with a hatchet. LOL. I will have to remember to repot them more often.
