    Once you showed the round scalloped pot and it’s colorings I knew that was the pot for that tree. Happy you mentioned soil composition- and it doesn’t necessarily have to be any particular blend. Especially if the tree is growing and vigorous. Thank you Mr. Chan.

    My bonsai pot has been repaired 3 times after strong wind knocked it down from the wall it sits on. I always planned on getting a new one but never got around to it. This video has rekindled that desire.

    I think part of the reason to go into smaller pots is also stunting the roots for smaller growth and smaller ramification. Usually done in the refinement stage.I usually go into slighlty bigger pots for most of my trees for the health of my trees.

    It’s really interesting, so many beautiful pots but only possibly one or two that are perfect. Reminds me of choosing something for a very special occasion, and invariably there is only one that is perfect. Thank you.

    I saw in the background of one of your videos once that you have a few citrus bonsai in your nursery too, but I couldn't find a full video featuring one of them! Do you think you could ever make a video showing us some of the special needs of those? There's sadly so little information out in the internet about citrus bonsai!

    Dr. Chan, I think your short videos are the best. All of your videos are very educational.
    A very good point in this video is, the pot and plant have to be side by side to determine size. When you they are separate, one or the other seems to change size. 😮 Plus, colors are very suttle and are harder to remember than size.
    Plants like to visit. 😊

    Does anyone produce salt-glazed bonsai pots? The variation of colour and texture makes every one unique. There's a firm at Hexham in northern England whose pots intended for alpines work very well with miniature trees. I don't know of anyone else.
