Pot size for Japanese black pine

[Skinnygoomba]

Howdy,

I want to keep a Japanese black pine in my garden, at about 4' tall, wondering what sized pot would be appropriate for this.

Got a pic of the tree?

I haven't bought it yet, just planning out my garden.

Choosing a pot will depend on the size of the rootball.

Choosing a pot will depend on the size of the rootball.

Both now and in its projected future. I wouldn't settle on a final pot until you've had the tree for quite some time and KNOW it thoroughly.

If it is now in a nursery pot, your first repot should be into a pot that is just a BIT smaller.

Needs pictures to accurately answer. '4 tall is very vague.

I'll fallow up when I have a bit more worthwhile information.
