How are these for size? The price seems good.. I'm looking for something cheap.

As for wire I was trying to use some crappy aluminum wire and its just been terrible. Hard to bend and shreds the tree easily. Wire recommendation also welcome. Thanks

The size of the pots is written in the description: 6-1/2 × 4-3/4 × 2-3/8 inch. If you are used to metric system as more than 95% of our planets population you can use convertion tools online.

For wire I use copper anodized aluminium wire for bonsai. The prices seems to be quite the same wherever one look. You can get better price per kg if you buy bigger packages.

yes i saw the size. what is your opinion on that size? is it too small for most trees? I don't want them to become pot bound too quickly. That size seems too small to me but maybe i am wrong.

thanks for wire recommendation.

Ahh, I understand. One shose pot based on the tree at hand. There are no pot suitable for "most trees". This size is good for Kumono trees and possibly one size smaller or bigger.
