Now jokes aside i have no idea what size you tree is exactly ???
Neither do I so I went & got it out of the rain.. 17cm wide 12cm high 11cm deep
All except the orange would work, the second a beautiful counterpoint.

It was suggested a while back by a couple of different growers about putting this on a rock & its something I am still considering, even more so since I think this rock could work very well with the tree & is about the right size for fit.

A couple of different views of the rock. I would really like to be able to use view 2 & 3 as alternate fronts but given the roots I will have to use the 1st, still its not bad, the roots & trunk will highlight the lower outcrop

Edit: attach the second pic

I was dreading repotting this year as I still didnt have a pot suitable. A few weeks ago I bought this pot from another australian potter, Val Garth, to pair with one of my viewing stones. On arrival I quickly realised the pot was too strong for the rock so it sat as an object of contemplation in its own right till wednesday just gone. I was prepped & ready to go in for surgery when I had a vision, a few days of recovery & today I got stuck in.
