    A nice simple root pruning and repotting of this little Pom in a cool pot.

    As a long time viewer of the Bonsai Zone I really appreciate the time and attention given to pot selection over the past several seasons. When a tree gets transplanted out of its training or nursery pot into a beautiful bonsai pot it truly starts its journey as a work of art. Thanks, keep growing

    Beautiful pot! I find plastic pots so incredibly depressing that it is a great relief every time a plant gets a real pot.

    I love pomegranates. The colour of the first leafs, the flowers, the bark... I have experienced that it is not possible to keep them warm indoors all year. The "nana" variety on the other hand is growing like crazy indoors for 3 years now.

    I got a pomegranate form the local nursery for the only reason that the root base was really cool and gnarly! Straight, boring trunk with no branching that is useful, so I will have to airlayer off the top, but that will give me 2 trees, so wins all round. This one looks much more promising, with that gentle movement and branching low down. (And that pot is beautiful!)

    I 100% agree with the pot. To me dark blue and green looks the best with pomegranate.

      Yes, this one is a bit more traditional as opposed to naturistic! Lol!

    I've said before that the pot is part of the composition. if the first thing you see is the pot, it's the worng pot.

    How do you decide when a tree is ready to transition from regular pot to bonsai pot? Great videos keep it up 👍

    • @TheBonsaiZone
      @TheBonsaiZone  2 месяца назад +1

      Trees tend to slow down in growth in a bonsai pot (generally). If you want to grow the tree more rapidly, a taller pot is best, if you want to slow the growth, a shallow pot helps. A general rule is that roots that are growing straight down become very vigorous and roots that grow more horizontally grow slower. It's not so much a bonsai pot vs. a regular garden pot, but the shape and style of the pot.

    Pommegranat are Mediterranean not tropical. They loose their leaves in fall.

      Is there a way to send you a few pictures from where I live? I have found some great examples that you might be able to incorporate into your designs. Not just pommegranates by the way.
