This was yesterday lol. My name is Tommy and I have an addiction problem.
I'm sure you know how to safely remove moss. You apply white vinegar with a brush. Be it an artist brush or tooth brush. You are just applying the liquid to the moss area trying not to saturate the pot. Wait for it to turn brown then and only then...remove it. I would think you know this...but incase you didn't.

It's not as interesting as a @sorce pot, but this clay salsa bowl caught my eye on Facebook marketplace.

The little bowl is permanently attached, which I thought would be wild if I can use it as a little water feature at the base of whichever tree I decide should go into the bowl/pot.

Just gotta add some drainage holes...

That's funny, I just got these guys at the local transfer station's "swap shop" (aka dump). Really just to make my cuttings look a little fancier in my home office under the grow lights this winter.

Plenty of life left in the cheap diamond hole saw kit I bought when we built a dormer, and put in a new bathroom with tiled floor and shower.

That's amazing to hear! It's a very charming bowl that I may keep it as a chip bowl as well. Who knows, it may be 25 years before the right tree comes along for it haha.
