Hollow Stones
Hi all,
As i was "Bonsai Hunting" last week I came across two weird Hollow Rocks. One of them was a Crysaline like and the other seems like metal. The weird thing about them is the fact that they are naturally hollow and empty from inside.
Do you think they might be used as a Bonsai Pots? anyone have experience with such a thing?
I appreciate any comment
Here is the Crystal Like Rock
Here is the meallic one
Thanks

Re: Hollow Stones
Those are geodes -- https://www.google.com/search?q=geode&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 -- Rock collectors (not necessarily viewing stone people) like them. Use them as pots only if there is drainage.

Re: Hollow Stones
Agreeing with Jim & Lena, the crystals found inside geodes are a fascinating natural rock form prized by collectors.

Those are even more beautiful on the inside. I got a bunch too, and got to admit I've thought about using it for bonsai too, but Lena's right. Don't hide the beauty within with a tree!

Thank you all for your replies.
I thought at first that my rocks are Geodes, but they are totally empty from inside. I am not sure if they are still called Geodes if they are totally hollow. I will have to research that.
Anyhow thanks all for your comments. I will not use them as pots for sure.
