Ok...so here we go. I wasn’t 100% sold on any of the pots I had, and for the size alone, I probably could have left it in the brown rectangle. This tree tends to grow roots so aggressively that it pushes itself up and out of the pot by 1/2” or more in a growing season...so underpotting might not be altogether healthy...or may not get it through the season.
However, the brown unglazed pot is dull dull dull and I wanted some color, 1 is out. I looked through the photos quite a few times, and many were too big (4,5,10), a few were too small (7,8,9). The bag-shaped oval is a good shape and size for the tree...but it’s a junk pot, and I wouldn’t enjoy looking at it for a year. 2 is out.
The yellow pot was a good shape and size, but the color didn’t work with the trunk color in my eye. And it was a bit “on the nose” drawing the comparison to the yellow fall color...so 6 was out.
Leaving only 1 choice not eliminated. Those who voted for #3 were with me...
