bonsaiTALK Community - View Single Post - which pot for this Larch?

You need to go with an earth tone pot, from deep brown unglazed to an almost burnt umber red unglazed. The pot should be shallow, as your tree looks like you might want to make a Bunjin of it, and round to oval. Pot sources; Bonsai Today has many pot advertisers. Go to some shows or Conventions. There is always an abundance of Pot sellers there and if you are not sure what you are looking for find someone who has an eye for conifers to help you find a pot. Just remember with a Bunjin or Literati style, less is more. The more simple the pot the better the display.
