The Modern Cascade is a sleek looking pot with a simple modern feel. The walls continue to the bottom of the pot, with a single drainage/air hole in the bottom perimeter wall for air and water exchange.
Air-pruning mesh bottom. The raised mesh bottom maximizes drainage and root growth: water and oxygen flow freely while the walls help keep the soil from drying too fast, and roots air-prune into a finer root system.
- Premium PETG — strong, with excellent water, chemical and UV resistance, and it insulates roots from heat and cold (only about 10–15% more brittle in freezing weather)
- Designed and 3D printed in the USA by Bonsai Shoes — 3D printing needs no molds, so we can offer sizes and shapes traditional manufacturing can't
- Sizes: the size number is the pot's largest outside dimension in inches (a Size 8 is 8″ wide)
Three ways to use it: on a solid surface (roots grow through the mesh for extra vigor — trim them at least once a year so they don't clog the mesh); on a mesh or grated surface (full air pruning — the ideal fine root system); or on soil or substrate (maximum growth while keeping a root ball in a small pot).

Printed to order just for you. Production time depends on current demand and printer availability — if timing matters, contact us for a current estimate before ordering.

Which tray fits this pot?
Measured from the production files: pot feet must sit on the tray's flat inside floor with room to spare. Shallow and Deep trays have the same inside floor size; Deep holds more water. Pots over 7" → Deep recommended.
| Pot size | Feet (in) | Proper tray | Type | Spare on short side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2" | 1.74 × 1.74 | 5" | Shallow or Deep | 34 mm |
| 3" | 2.17 × 2.17 | 5" | Shallow or Deep | 23 mm |
| 4" | 2.90 × 2.90 | 6" | Shallow or Deep | 20 mm |
| 5" | 3.60 × 3.59 | 8" | Shallow or Deep | 35 mm |
| 6" | 4.30 × 4.30 | 9" | Shallow or Deep | 33 mm |
| 7" | 5.04 × 5.04 | 10" | Shallow or Deep | 28 mm |
| 8" | 5.65 × 5.65 | 10" | Deep | 12 mm (snug) |
Spare = tray inside floor minus foot size, on the tighter (short) side. "Fits with spare" standard is ~20 mm or more.
