I spoke to the owner of this tree who is not perfectly happy with the pot. It is a difficult tree to find a pot for, I believe the extra length (compared to width) causes some difficulty.
I am sure the owner would appreciate opinions, advice, examples and even offers of an alternative to this pot.

Because of the shape of the tree an oval pot keeping the length and depth of the pot its in, also a pale glazed in moss green or similar colour. The pot it is in is more suited to conifers than desidious trees.

Re: [360°] Ulmus Procera Raft (English Elm Raft) at the NBPCA
it is a magnificant tree, i realy like it. thanks for sharing.
I too noticed a face, but there are more than one. I also saw a baby Kangaroo,
Alvin (Chipmonk), and a lion and a Koala. Maybe to view this tree live they wont
be there. The camera does lie you know.
