This is a second one I just made into a bonsai type a couple of years ago. The plant to the right I planted at a steep angle and propped it up with a stick. When shaping, observe the plant from the front – which is your presentation view, but also look at the back and the side views. This pot is still more than adequate for this plant. I plan to let this one get taller and wider. The pot should enhance the overall look of the bonsai. This pot and plant, as it is, are not in proportion. This plant would look better in a smaller pot.
