I would repot in separate individual one-gallon containers in a well-draining mix and then repot to five-gallon containers next year. Overpotting is the easiest way to cause root rot if that pot is as big as I think it is. You'll have to scoop beneath the individual root systems. They may be starting to get tangled together so some root breakage will occur. These get to be trees so planting two together is generally not a good idea. Here is Luc from Florida Colors and one of his Pudicas. |
