It seems deep pots are out of favor nowadays. I was looking at some old Japanese paintings, and deep, round, decorated pots were pretty common back a couple hundred years or so. I bring this up because I found a nice round pot about 8" in diameter and 8" high with blue Japanese scenery. It was $2 at a thrift store, so I bought it and drilled a drain hole in it. I have a pomegranate waiting to go into it this spring. I like deeper pots both for the looks and for a moisture buffer for our hot climate with long summers. I'm also experimenting with deeper concrete pots as they are a bit easier to make than rectangular ones. Oh, and did I mention it cost 2 dollars?!
