Working at a wholesale nursery I have no shortage of plastic pots, but other then getting a plant from point a-b I loathe them. Terracotta is the only way to go, it's like framing a piece of art, well worth the trouble and investment. Your artist pots are incredible.Stupid Garden Plantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00378866321156746562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-24633448886191271622012-04-02T22:05:52.918-07:002012-04-02T22:05:52.918-07:00Beautiful pots!

It will have no drainage so adding just the right amount of water when needed will be a learning moment for me.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-7429443230626764022012-04-02T10:12:13.582-07:002012-04-02T10:12:13.582-07:00I always prefer terra cotta and other ceramics ove...I always prefer terra cotta and other ceramics over plastic. Metal pots look nice but they're expensive and get too hot, cooking the roots.<br /><br />I saw these <a href="http://ecoforms.com/" rel="nofollow">Ecoforms pots</a> at the San Francisco Flower & Garden Show a few weeks ago and I'm willing to try them if I ever find any locally.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-62489675190328337122012-04-02T10:04:22.086-07:002012-04-02T10:04:22.086-07:00I prefer terra cotta plants mostly.

I wouldn't mind them all myself :) I think terracotta pots are so versatile and complements succulents well, and being porous gives extra drainage.<br /><br />The copper bowl is a fab find, you can get really creative planting that one up!Mark and Gazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427245730390252976noreply@blogger.com
