New Accent in Dan Barton Pot

I fell in love with this small Dan Barton pot whilst at the Swindon Winter Image Show recently. It is approx 9.5cm in diameter and 5 to 6cm deep, so not large nor small. The glaze is what really attracted me; it slides the lower you get and turns to a beautiful blue. What I do like in terms of attention to detail, are the small feet that ensures the planting can drain well.

I decided a brand-new variety of Primula would be completely suitable for this lovely pot. It is Primula ‘Woodland Walk.’ A hardy perennial from the family of cultivated Primrose. Flowering time is March April May.

About Mike Jones

Having taken early retirement at 55 due to a variety of disabilities, I am now devoting my time to Bonsai and photography; the latter I am pretty hopeless at but getting better with time. I have enjoyed Bonsai for many many years. I offer help to anyone interested in Bonsai, or general advice about an existing tree you may have, or even wish to have. I can recommend an excellent nursery. Above and beyond all that you will read and learn …ENJOY it! I know I have.
