I have noticed that many stores do not sell the bases (can't think of

planting a dwarf alberta spruce in it.

Has anyone done this and did the tree survive?

Thanks.

If pot were sold for use with a base it would already have holes in
it. I assume pot sold without holes is not made for a base. Some I
have like this outside, I drill holes in side about half way down to
prevent flooding if there is a lot of rain. Rock bottom is not going
to help if pot is full of water.
