This larch was last rootpruned two years ago. Since then it has risen slightly out of the pot and the chopped nebari isn’t very attractive.

To remedy this I tilted the tree forward slightly and removed more from underneath the front of the rootball. I also cut back the long back roots, not by much as it’s the type of work that is best done slowly over time.

One other change I made was to rotate the front of the pot. I read somewhere that ideally a pot should be displayed with the most stable looking front. For this pot, it means showing the two pot feet either side of the tree, as opposed to just one foot showing in the first photo above.
