The Canley Vale Nursey at 62-68 Canley Vale Road is a favourite haunt for Sydney-based bonsai enthusiasts.
I was there today for my monthly visit and discovered that they are now carrying a range of plastic bonsai pots that are ideal for bonsai under development. I have sourced some of these smaller pots in the past but I had to go interstate and pay freight.
They range in price from $3 - $15 for the largest ones. I especially liked the darker colour that look very much like mica pots. They are very light-weight and even have bonsai motifs. I showed great restraint and only bought two.
Now there is another reason for bonsai enthusiasts to visit this really unique nursery.

Hmmm Nice. Might have to take a trip one day:-)
they look like a good option for a shallower pot than Styrene boxes too.
