That means as LARGE as you can handle.


Just to clarify what LARGE means so I know how to trick the tree into
thinking it's in the ground.

A LARGE pot is:

A) wide and shallow
B) narrow and deep
C) wide and deep.

I think from Jim's detailed reply I can presume that we're talking
about a clay pot. Can I also presume that Bonsai soil is used when
growing out the trunk in these LARGE clay pots?

Thanks, John
