Getting the pot ready

Lay the drainage mesh over the holes in the base - trim it with scissors - and spread a thin layer of clay granules on top. Then fill up with bonsai soil. Tie the tree in with wire through the extra holes in the base, so it stays still while new roots grow.

Good to know

  • Shohin are small bonsai that can be lifted with one hand - usually up to about 20 cm tall.
  • A rectangular pot gives a stable, masculine look and suits upright trees with a strong trunk.
  • Small pots dry out quickly. Check watering every day in summer.
  • Keep the pot frost-free in winter. Frost can damage both the pot and the roots - and that is worst on an old tree.
  • The pot is handmade, so dimensions may vary by approx. ±0.5 cm.
  • Picture 2 shows the drainage mesh and clay granules that come with the pot. The round clay bowl in the picture is not included.
