What Size Pot Do I Need For A Dwarf Salix Caprea Pendula?

Question

Hi! I recently bought this mini pussy willow a little over a month ago. I am wondering how big of a container I may need and what type of potting soil would be best for this tree to grow into? Also, when would be the best time to repot it? Thanks!

Each time that you pot up, you will need to choose a container that is 1 or 2 inches larger on each side, until the tree stops filling out the container with roots. Make sure that the tree is relatively rootbound before transplanting each time.

Here is an article that will help with the care of the tree:
