Good info once again, thanks! Yeah, the ten footer is what I'm trying to avoid. Lol. I just didn't know if allowing it to fill in would be a detriment to the plant when keeping it potted. I last reported in September. I use cactus palm and citrus mix with some bark/organic matter mixed in.
Yeah, I fertilize, but I'm a procrastinator, so it got fertilized a little late. That was a few weeks ago when I fed. I keep it protected under an oak. It only gets morning and evening sun, with various times of dappled light in between. Is that sufficient? It seems to be much happier there than where I had it before, which got a lot of sun--our sun is usually pretty intense.
