I have two cascade trees that I am not sure how to build boxes for. Do they have to be deep or shallow? Any help? __________________ "What we see depends mainly on what we look for", because "Creation and art are defined only by the boundaries we confine ourselves" both quotes written by authors unknown

OK, this is just my worthless opinion, but here goes: I would put it in whatever grow box supports its root system. The reason tall pots are used for cascades is more cosmetic that functional, imho. My cascades have a little deeper than normal roots, but I use the tall pots to keep the tree up higher and because it seems to ballance the downward motion of the tree. Like I said, this is just my opinion!
