Question Tree Planting On Rock

Opinions sought after very seriously, please.

Had a bonsai dealer in my apartment today and added a further 20 trees to my collection, some of which are quite surprising, like an Exposed root, yamadori Ilex, and a Pinus Thunbergii Corticosa - cork pine, to name but two.

The moment when I can get to taking stock of my excitement, I shall get down to do some pics to upload, but until then, I would like to have your input regarding what does one do with the rock?

Like for instance, does one glue/cement the rock into the pot?

This I am very loathe to do as the 'old' Japanese pot that I have picked up, a large, flatish, cream on brown coloured, with a very interesting riffled edge, is to my eyes very beautiful. My overall plan is to create a small landscape scene with 5 yamadori Larix,
[grazed by Dutch sheep] and the ground will be covered with a generous layer of rich mosses.

Hoping for some good advice....Nigel
