Hi
I have a large 14" round shallow brass dish (pot) that I would like to plant
a
maple in. Any problem with brass? Thx.

It will discolor and corrode over time. Does it have drainage?

As Billy says, don't try to keep it polished. I keep a small
bouganvilla in a brass pot and it hasn't come to any harm.
