Nice purchase! I can imagine how nice it must be to sit in the yard, and gaze over all your great deciduous trees.

I'm usually working on them lol... but thats just as relaxing...

 

[JudyB]

Dang! A beast!
Looks amazing!
That trunk looks huge!

It is a big ass trunk, I think that it's the impact of a big tree in a small package. And to think at one time I thought I didn't like sumo trees....

Now that's an azalea... Really powerful trunk, haven't seen many azaleas like that at all.

Very cool Judy.
I like the fact it looks great without flowers.
If you want to get rid of the drum pot I would take it off of your hands.

I have seen them, but most are very large (tall) trees, and I'm trying to stay with medium stuff these days.

The nebari is about 10", it's 13"tall and about 20" wide and deep.

Thanks Mike, that is partially why I picked this variety to start with, they look good out of flowering season. I will let you know if I can find a new pot, I'm on the hunt, lol...

Great find! Curious if it came from the Netherlands and how it was shipped Also, looking at various Japanese shows that involve Azalea I find they mainly show them in round clays and very plain ones at that. I of course do not have the experience Brain does but that is what I see.

Japan, it came thru a company that deals with mostly imported Japanese stock. They have a connection to the Kennet collection.

A lot are grown to show flowers then relegated to the back until next year's flower show.
This one can take the front spot on any bench and hold it.

 

[discusmike]

Definently gives the impression of a larger tree

I really like the shape and color of the pot you showed. The lightest grey possible I would think with those flowers would work well.
