I was curious if you knew of a source for flat rock designs like: rock slab pots Are the trees normally planting in an shallow pot then repotted to the slab? I assume there are still drainage holes drilled in the slabs too. Thanks for any information

My next attempt i think will be using Joe Day's method of using a natuaral slab with clay and peat 'muck' to retain soil . __________________ Chip Smith Nashville's Second-best Jazz Whistler
