Ditto, I rarely notice pots either. In fact, I look at show plants and feel a little sorry for them stuffed into their small pots. I'm amazed they grow well, or at all, in some of those pots.

As that is virtually impossible, I content myself with looking at the plant in whatever it happens to be growing in, and try to imagine it in its real habitat. I as a plant lover do not even see the pot a plant is in. The pot is invisible to me. If I want to look at pots I go to a museum, not a plant show. Lou
