The Bonsai guys do this all the time..... Next year, 2 of my 25G JM are going in the ground. I've had them sited in their proposed growing location for 2 seasons and siting seems fine. I generally tend to root wash-bare root and do root correction before planting all things However, after having killed one expensive conifer, I've been somewhat hesitant to do it on larger specimen size plantings... Seeking a voice of reason. I should be -okay- doing a full bare root on a large JM right
