The Bonsai pot rectangular medium 26cm gives a bonsai a stable, natural foundation without drawing attention away from the tree. Its low rectangular geometry supports compositions with a clear direction, while warm brown terracotta sits naturally beside bark and substrate. With two drainage holes and a compatible saucer available separately, it is a practical choice for a considered indoor or outdoor display.
External size · roots · drainage
External dimensions are the starting point
The stated external dimensions are 26.2 × 20 × 7.5 cm. Because separate internal measurements are not provided, fit should be confirmed against the root ball and the actual pot.
- Outside: 26.2 × 20 × 7.5 cm (L × W × H).
- Material: 100% terracotta.
- Drainage: 2 holes in the base.
Measure before working the roots. If the fit is close, do not rely on the commercial size name alone.
Low rectangular form
It gives visual stability and leaves more horizontal space around the base of the tree.
Two base holes
They support free drainage when correctly covered with mesh and paired with suitable substrate.
When this rectangular pot fits
The right choice combines the root ball, the direction of the composition and the visual relationship between trunk and pot.
Compositions with horizontal movement
The rectangular form creates a clear base for trees with a visible direction, wider canopy or strong trunk line.
Natural matte finish
The earthy surface pairs easily with different bark tones and keeps the tree at the centre.
The roots fit without excessive removal and leave room for substrate around them.
Measure the actual inner space before beginning root pruning or securing the tree.
If it cannot fit with safe root work, choose a deeper or larger pot.
Before repottingSize selection & fitHow to use the external measurements correctly.
Choose the pot around the root ball
26cm identifies the model, but the real choice begins with the root ball and the 26.2 × 20 × 7.5 cm external dimensions.
Root ball, depth and trunk position
Allow for the roots, substrate around them and the position in which you want the trunk to stand.
Internal dimensions are not stated
The usable internal measurements are smaller than the exterior. If the fit is close, measure the pot before beginning root work.
Do not force the tree to fit through excessive cutting
Repotting time and the degree of root pruning depend on the species, season and condition of the tree.
Placement guideRepotting in four stepsMesh, securing, substrate and the first watering.
Repotting in four steps
Use a suitable bonsai substrate and keep both drainage holes clear.
Secure the mesh
Cover each hole with suitable mesh that retains the substrate without restricting water flow.
Build a thin base
Add suitable substrate and shape the point on which the root ball will rest.
Position and secure
Set the trunk position, secure the tree where required and work substrate carefully around the roots.
Water until it drains
Water evenly and allow excess water to leave fully through the base holes.
The saucer is sold separately
If you use the Bonsai saucer medium, empty it after watering so the base of the pot does not remain standing in water.

Frequently asked questions
01Is a saucer included?
No. The package contains the pot only. For a shelf or furniture surface, pair it with the Bonsai saucer medium, sold separately.
02Are the measurements internal or external?
The stated 26.2 × 20 × 7.5 cm measurements are external. As separate internal measurements are not provided, measure the root ball before repotting.
03What does terracotta bring to the design?
Unglazed terracotta has a natural matte appearance that works well with bark, substrate and the low geometry of a bonsai composition.
04How many drainage holes does it have?
The pot has 2 base drainage holes. Cover them with suitable mesh so the substrate is retained without restricting runoff.
05Can it be used outdoors?
It can be used outdoors with free drainage. As no specific frost-resistance certification is stated, protect it from severe freezing conditions.
06How do I choose the right size?
Compare the root ball, intended planting depth and visual proportion with the pot. If fitting the tree requires excessive root removal, choose a larger or deeper model.
