Hmm what pot
Hi All,

Re: Hmm what pot
With all those curves the tree is very feminine. So you need a pot that will reflect that a round bag pot with a very understated glase.
If you go with an oval it needs cloud feet to show the feminine side of the tree, even an oval bag pot .

Re: Hmm what pot
That could be a possibility if it were a bit shallower or longer it might just be the angle it is taken at.dayne wrote:try this may be

Re: Hmm what pot
That is a nice pot, now the question is when to buy the pot and when to I repot it.  I think I will wait until after winter for this one.  I really appreciate all the help you guys and others of this site provide.  My wife thinks I am obsessed.  I have been tinkering with bonsai for about 16-17 years now.  Now I cant stop
