Bonsai, Bonsai Pots


by Max Bellamy

Bonsai is like a picture, and the pot is its frame. Unless the frame is not befitting and visually appealing, the picture in it will not gather much attention, no matter how beautiful the face inside it is.
These days, there are varieties of pots available because of the increasing interest in bonsai planting. Containers come in all shapes and sizes and in almost all colors. But the most commonly used is a ceramic pot that is glazed on the exterior. The bonsai plant and the pot are going to remain with each other for a long time, but remember no container is permanent; your plant will require a repotting over a due period of time.
Select a wide and shallow pot whose length is about two-thirds the height of the tree and depth of one or one-and-a-half times the trunk diameter. A bonsai pot must have legs to stand on so that air can circulate underneath the pot and excess water can drain away from the pot. This will also help in keeping off insects and foul smell.
Color adds life and vivacity to the entire package so select a pot that suits the time when the plant is in flower. Choose a bright container for a flowering plant or tree; but in general, earthly colors like brown and dark green will suit all trees. However, for azaleas, select blue pots and for pines, white works better than other shades.
Keep in mind that your container has holes, for drainage, approximately 10mm in diameter at the bottom. This allows air to enter the soil from beneath and water to drain.
