Thank you Aiko once again for nomination, after consulting this matter with Paul he gave me a green light to choose a topic, so here we are.
I am aware this might be a little risky, but after seeing a few great examples recently (one being Tina's Euphorbia makeover here viewtopic.php?p=340917#p340917, and another one from a bonsai display I have seen recently, where this Saxifraga sp. was used as a "companion plant" for one of the trees) I would like to see more photographs of plants matching pots, or pots matching plants, whichever way you want to look at this.

I wanted to put more focus on the little Saxifraga, but the trees were also amazing indeedgreatnorthernexotic wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 6:14 pm Love those bonsai trees.
