Here is another shohin JBP. It's 6" tall with 1 1/4" trunk. I just repotted but would like some ideas on the right pot for this tree?

Thanks,
Tim

Very nice shohin Tim. Wish I could help you on the pot choice but I get hammered on my pot choices.

What Harry said, but I'll stick it out a bit and say oval about the same width, a bit shallower, and terra cotta/rust type color.

NIce tree Tim,
I really like the movement on this one. I had one pretty close to it and the pot in this pic was what it was in and it looked really good for it

Of course everyone taste is different

Thomas,

You are dead on...that's the pot I took it out of and it's a good choice for it but I wanted a change. Oh well...I'll look around a bit more.

Perhaps just a darker shade of pot.
Or an antique one.

Tim,
Nice little tree. The pot ThomasJ placed it into virtually is quite nice. An oval would be good. Every once in a while you can come across the gray yamaaki pots which might fit this tree quite well as the bark matures. Nice and thanks, John
