I recently got in touch with Janet Selby, who I know is well know among folks here for her fantastic bonsai pots, to commission me a cascade pot for a Blue Mountains Pine I have.
I sent Janet through some photos of the the plant's natural habitat, photos of the plant itself and how I intend on training it (which you can also see below).
But obviously the reason for my post is to show appreciation for the pot that Janet has made me (pictured below). I think Janet nailed the brief, capturing those sandstone tones and texture that the Blue Mountains Pine grows around. I will definitely be getting more pots from Janet in the future.
