I am from Pretoria and I've got a forest of Black monkey thorns, an extra one and 2 mini bonsais and a single monkey thorn.
Just remember that if you repot these trees, not to cut the taproot completely off, otherwise your tree will get a big shock and probably die. I normally just cut 1/6 of the tap root off. They are easy trees to repot and while they started to bud you can repot them.
