"Well, doesn't time, fly! Thank you very much to all customers new and old for your support, we genuinely appreciate your business in an industry that we have remained passionate for over the last two decades. We look forward to the next 23 years. Note, a recent delivery that I made of large garden pots to the Isle of Bute in treacherous weather conditions (there and back) was far easier than getting Heidi to agree to have her picture on our new website!"

FAQs

What is the downside of terracotta pots? ›

However, keep in mind that a terracotta planter, especially a larger one, will be difficult to move because of its heavier weight. You also will need to handle them with more care because of the risk of breakage if you drop or hit them with an object.

Which is better terracotta or clay pots? ›

Red clay pots excel at holding onto moisture, making them the ideal choice for plants that require continuous hydration. Terra cotta pots' porous walls allow extra water to escape quickly, helping prevent overwatering and root rot. Consider your plant's specific watering needs when choosing a pot for it.

Show Me More ›

Which plants prefer terracotta pots? ›

The natural evaporation qualities of the terra cotta clay pot mean that there are plants that will especially adore these containers. Cacti and succulents are two of these plants, which makes sense since they are desert plants and will not tolerate being overwatered.

Why should you avoid using terracotta pots for container gardens? ›

These pots are durable and can be used for many years if they're cared for properly. But they are made of porous clay, so can harbor harmful bacteria that will affect the performance of your plants if they're not cleaned regularly and in the correct way.

What are the best low maintenance outdoor potted plants? ›

What are some low-maintenance outdoor potted plants that are hard to kill? Herbs like sage, rosemary, and thyme are great plants that require little maintenance and continue to grow despite neglect. They are all hearty plants that will repeatedly return, no matter how much you cut them back.

Do plants grow better in terracotta pots? ›

Once again, the breathable nature of Terra Cotta pots allow for cuttings to root better. Because of this, the plants will not “succumb to mildew” like they would in other pots or even glass or plastic jars. Be sure to keep your pots in a semi-dry area, though, as they may grow mold if they are too wet for too long.

Should terracotta pots be soaked before planting? ›

Start out by soaking the inside and outside of your pot prior to planting. Ideally for 24 hours if possible, but less will do too. Your terracotta pot should change colour, going from light to dark. If your clay pot changes colour when it gets wet, this means that your pot can breathe.

Which pots are best for gardening? ›

Our advice is to go porous. Porous ceramics like terracotta will dry more evenly than plastic pots, and any wood planter will dry even faster than terracotta. Ceramic planters also are great choices. And if you're worried about weight, fiberglass planters are ideal for plants 8" or larger in diameter.

Are terracotta pots good for vegetables? ›

Vegetables grow well in terracotta pots. These pots are porous, with excellent drainage and air circulation, but they are heavy and fragile.

Can you paint terracotta pots? ›

All paints work for the job, but we prefer to use acrylic craft paint or spray paint, both work well on terracotta pots. Thinning the paint out with a little water helps spread it quickly and easily. This is an optional step, but it really helps spread the paint over the pot when applying the base coat.

What are the disadvantages of clay pots for plants? ›

Clay does have the disadvantage of drying quickly. This can be a problem for moisture loving plants such as ferns or when attempting to germinate seeds. Clay also has the tendency to form a white crusty layer on the outside of the pot.

Do terracotta pots dry plants out? ›

The porous nature of terracotta can make the soil dry out faster, so a good potting mix is essential. b. Create a Moisture Barrier: To prevent the soil from drying out too quickly, line the inside of the pot with a plastic or clay saucer. This barrier will help retain moisture.

What complements terracotta? ›

They mix well with other warm tones, like orange, red or sepia, and with neutral shades like cream, white, or green. On the other hand, more neutral or muted terracotta tones can act as a supporting shade for more vibrant colors. Think cool tones like blue and purple or even darker shades, like deep brown and black.

What are the pros and cons of terracotta clay? ›

Pros & Cons of Terra Cotta Tile

Terra cotta is often used, glazed or unglazed, to create a rustic, weathered look. While high-quality terra cotta will last forever, it's difficult to assess the quality, even for pros. Buy only from a seller whose reputation you trust, though even then you may encounter problems.

Do terracotta pots have lead in them? ›

Clays almost never contain lead because the processes of formation were different. The clay itself is made up a wide variety of naturally occurring chemicals. If a pot isn't glazed, it almost certainly does not contain lead.
