Where can I find an oval bonsai pot that is 18" wide and 3" deep that fits with my ficus tree?

Here is a pic of my tree:

This comming spring I plan to repot this tree into its new bonsai pot.

Here is a pic of a drawing of my tree with the pot I am looking for: (I need the pot to be 18" wide and 3" deep)

Here is a close up pic of the oval pot:

That's a fairly large pot you're looking for.
Using google, I found this 15.75 inch pot (not quite right) for about $60 before shipping:

Where have you looked and what have you budgeted for the pot?

18" seems like a VERY large pot for that plant.

Try "Dallas Bonsai"
"Bonsai by the Monastery"
"Wee Tree Farms"

Sarah Raynor will have some fantastic, quality pots, and they're worth the price. Masters all over the world have trees in her pots. Find her at:

I found this pot called an Oval Bonsai Pot TO44-17.

http://www.bonsai-uk.co.uk/44cm-oval-bonsai-to44-p-1454.html

This site has the pot like I want. It closely matches my drawing. but they dont ship to the US. Where else can I find this pot so I can haveit in the US?

In the meantime I will look that that website AL. Thanks for the help.

The page I sent you had ones that matched your drawings under the large pots section. But if you want that exact pot you could always set up one of those shipping service accounts (you pay to have it shipped to a location in the UK then pay to have it shipped to the US).
