Default Keeping a small tree upright while repotting?

"Daniel Prince" wrote in message
...

I need to repot a small, living Christmas tree. I have repotted it
before and I had trouble keeping it upright and centered in the pot.
I need it to be upright and centered in the pot so that it will not
blow over when the wind blows.

Is there a trick for doing this? Thank you in advance for all
replies.


Construct in advance a tripod 10 pct. taller than the tree
(and accurate or symmetrical.) This will help you locate
the treetop accurately in space when settling it into the pot.
