Bonsai Pots

From BonsaiWIKI

Bonsai pots are vessels used for planting. Usually they are ceramic containers called bonsai pots, but flat pieces of slate and other stone (called slabs) can also be used. Some pots may be constructed of manmade materials like Mica, Plastic, Fiberglass and concrete, hypertufa or Ciment Fondu.

Bonsai pots are almost always provided with drainage holes through which water can flow.

Bonsai pots may be glazed or unglazed and some containers are fitted with feet.
