Charming plants pots and plant stands

By Klarna

Inner pot, outer pot or outer lining. What should you think of when you buy plants for your home? Well, you get the plant in an inner pot, which is usually a dull plastic one. This is then either removed or placed in a more attractive outer pot. If that outer pot has holes in it, as some do, then you also need a tray or dish to stand it on.

Here we list seven attractive outer pots that really help set off your indoor plants.

3 tips for buying pots:

What’s best for the plant? Some plants don’t like too small a pot, some need a big pot and still others don’t mind one way or the other. Match the pot with the needs of the plant as much as the appearance you want to achieve.
Keep an eye on the bottom. Even pots without holes can let moisture through, especially if made of untreated natural materials which are left wet for a long time. Check that no moisture rings form under a pot, as these are ugly on furniture and window sills.
Think about size. How much space does your plant need for its roots? Large pots are more expensive than small ones, but it’s even more expensive to keep buying new pots because the plants have suddenly grown out of the old ones.
