All of our pots are frost proof (with the possible exception of our small pots from Sri Lanka which are  produced by women in two villages where they all have their own pottery wheels and small kilns in  their gardens). Everything else is either high fired earthenware or stoneware, or steel reinforces reconstituted stone. Our pots are of the highest quality and all artisan made and designed. That doesn’t mean that they cannot be broken. Whilst the fabric of the pots is frost proof the pots themselves are still pots!!! There are three essential steps to making sure that they don’t break:
Picture
​Make sure to put plenty of crock at the bottom of the pot so as to ensure adequate drainage, (this will also help the plant!!)
Picture
​Make sure to stand your pot on pot feet so water can drain away from beneath the pot. Don’t let your pot get water logged.

Pond Care

​If you are using your pot as a pond, make sure that if there is a lip on your pot you reduce the water level in winter so that when the water freezes and expands as ice it doesn’t put pressure on the lip of the pot as this will break it- not the freezing temperature but, rather, the pressure of expanding ice on the lip of the pot.
If your pot has no lip then the expanding ice will simply push out of the top of the pop, like a popsical.
