Buy Bonsai pots in various colors and sizes to match your plant
Potting your tree in an appropriate sized pot will help it grow
faster and healthier. Bonsai pots are very decorative and add to the whole look of
the plant or tree. Before purchasing familiarize yourself with
the possibilities. This is important for when you are growing
bonsai trees on your patio.
Please buy bonsai pots by
how they will look or be displayed with a finished
specimen tree in it. There are only a few shapes, square, oval or rectangular
and two types glazed or unglazed. The difference comes down to
personal preference.

I like to buy the Chinese pottery because it blends in well
with my patio decorations and there is a wider selection in
shapes. Japanese pottery and mica pots are just as nice and may
suit your needs better. It all depends on your surrounding
furnishings and decor.
General points to keep in mind:
There are there are only a few styles or types bonsai pots,
square, round and rectangular. There are many
more I just wanted to show the main difference. For glazed an
unglazed ceramic pots just think of them as one is shiny and the
other is not.
Japanese
bonsai pots normally have legs or feet on the pots. These
actually make the tree display a little nicer and make it look
taller than it really is.
Chinese
pottery usually comes with a matching tray, which is a very
nice idea. There is a larger selection of these types of bonsai
pots. When buying a bonsai tree container be sure that you read the description, in
particular the size of the pot. Other wise you may be thinking you
are getting a larger pot for a cheap price, when in fact the pot
will end up being too small.
Mica pots only come in oval shapes. Mica Pots imported from
Korea are made of 80% mica, 15% polyethelene and 5% graphite.
Mica has a natural ability to stabilize the temperature of the
soil in the pots. This promotes healthy root activity during the
growing season and protects during the cold periods. These pots
are extremely durable.
Because outdoor bonsai trees
are kept out of the weather and high winds they are grown on a
sundeck or patio. You will want a decorative plant pot to display
these in. Also keep in mind the color of your tree and try to match the
pot color with the trunk or bark color or if its a
flowering bonsai with the color of the leaves.
As the foundation for your tree, you will note that bonsai pots also
secure the plant as well as aid in helping provide a healthy growing
environment so your bonsai can thrive. If you want to know where to buy
other bonsai supplies

You need bonsai containers with
drainage holes whether they are for indoor bonsai or outdoor bonsai. You can plant in a drainless container, but plant care
is much more difficult. Choose the size of the pot with the size of the
tree. You will need the pot to allow for maximum growth and to
make sure the soil has some room to breathe.
