Northern California weather is pretty forgiving when it comes to repotting. I feel safe repotting most trees December through March. Tridents in particular can be repotted fairly late among deciduous trees. They can be repotted even after they leaf out as long as the leaves are ruddy.

From the dates on the posts, it appears that you are doing this in December (early Winter?), is that correct?

Do you repot all maples at this time or just well established ones?

As Janet said, wonderful job on the series. I wish this had been available to me when I got started in bonsai, it would have saved me a lot of shoddy work. Nice photography, too.
