Flower Pots help?
Well, there are terra cotta pots, ceramic pots, and plastic pots to start with.





Terra cotta pots are a natural material; readily available and relatively cheap. Terracotta pots (baked earth) are baked clay that has not been glazed and is also applied to the reddish-brown colour considered most typical of the material. The popularity of terracotta pots has grown over the years due to the fact that the range of pots available continues to improve whilst still maintaining reasonable prices. As well as this, almost any plant looks good in a terracotta pot regardless of whether you are growing it inside, in the greenhouse or out in the garden. You can buy them in a wide range of shapes and sizes and either plain or decorated so you are very likely to find a design that matches your existing decor. If you keep your plants in the garden you can even be rest assured that your terracotta pots are safe in winter because as they are fired at such high temperatures they are somewhat frost resistant.





Ceramic pots can be awfully heavy, and plastic pots keep moisture in longer, as opposed to terra cotta whose pores allow the plant to dry out faster.
