What pot should I go











​
​ for?

"Pots, like plants, come in a variety of colours, sizes, and designs. But when it comes to materials, some suit different plants and gardening styles. Before choosing the perfect pot, consider a few key questions—what’s beneath its beautiful exterior? How will it hold up in extreme heat or sudden cold? How will moisture be retained in the pot? Will the pot out-last the plant.. and even me??

​To help you make the best choice for you and your plants, we’ve outlined the most popular options and what to expect from each."
