EJM and

to the OB !!!! A bark mix should work just fine and make sure that the pot is small enough that you think it's too small for it. Enjoy the forum and like the others said just do a little research on the forum and you'll find more info on their care.

I agree, and cram the roots! If necessary, use a fine bark mix to get stuff down in there. The bark is basically just a holder for the roots. Most of these guys are able to grow bare root, if necessary.
