Pot laying around the parents backyard

Post by Sean M »

So my Mum cam down to Canberra to drop off some trees and a pot she bought at the Ausbonsai market day. :D
When I was talking to her on the phone she mentioned she had a pot she was using for growing watercress but it was like a bonsai pot and would I like her to bring that too. When I asked her how big it was she said it was fairly big. Well she wasn't kidding! It comes in at 102cm long, 60cm wide and 15cm high and weighs about 1000 tonnes :o . OK so maybe not quite that heavy but I applaud Mum and Dad for being able to shift it! :worship:
I am quite happy with it! I don't think its even Asian in origin, and it's possibly made from concrete but it will be great for a large forest setting in my backyard one day! Now I just need my trees to grow a bit.....

wow. nice find!

If you look at the bottom you might see a stamp (called a 'chop) on the bottom, and if there is one, take a photo - one of the members here might be able to identify it for you...

Thanks Dusty,
I checked when I took the photos and it didn't have one that was obvious.
