KISS System On This?

Hey guys and gals

well this is just a general question for my flowering cherries I bought a couple months ago.

problem: too much roots for pot.

actually its a mame pot thats really shallow, so I thought it could make a neat mame group planting. I chose these 3 flowering cherries for the pot.

Can I preform the KISS (keep it simple stupid) system on this project?

heres how I would like to group the trees. although they will, in reality be a lot closer. I was also thinking about putting the group over to the left side of the pot. I was thinking of putting the shorter ones in the back though, because of that perspective rule for forests, even though this is just a group planting.

Might I add, this plant is weird. Its supposed to bloom either during the spring or autum. It bloomed once around october~november, and its starting to throw buds out again... very interesting, I must say...

Kazuki, you mention the rule of perspective, part of this rule is to have the tallest tree be the one with the biggest trunk and then on down. Your three trees are the opposite. When they start to grow you may want to think ahead and plan for them to change. Either keep the tallest at its present height and have the shortest grow taller of somehow change the heights. The middle tree should remain the middle height.
