    Another suggestion for those looking for unique pots: if you live close to a college, look into their art and ceramics department. Sometimes students will make items specifically to sell to fund different projects. I've bought a bunch of cute little pots and bowls from students and I felt good knowing my money was going straight to them!

    Some of my favourite pots are the worn, old terracottas! The stains, white patches and colour variation is so beautiful and interesting! I just think the aged look just makes a gorgeous, rustic vibe.

    As you said, a draining layer of pebbles inside a hole-less pot is useless, but a cache-pot will do better with pebbles. You can put the inner pot over the pebbles, to keep the inner pot above the water. A glazed cache pot will not allow the water to wick and wet the furniture it rests on. Just don't forget to empty the cache pot after each watering. The cache pot is more practical and more aestetic than a tray. It prevents spillage as well.

Hirts sells nice pots too, and they have the Basalt pots in a group pack. I think it's like 3 or 4 for 9.99. Maybe cheaper. No one seems to like buying from them but I get great deals on pots from them. Great video as always! EDIT: Ok, I just clicked on the links and saw the Hirts pots! Lol!

    Lots of great resources, thanks Nick! I do love the look of the Berg planters but I am very disappointed that the interior of the saucer is not glazed. When I spend that amount of money on a pot/saucer I don't want to have to be concerned about water damage to my tables and shelving. Yes, I know I could put something underneath them but then it detracts from the esthetics of the pot...

      Doesn't resolve the issue that a 20-50$ (or more! ) pot should not, in my opinion, need to be MacGivered to do the job!

    How do I know which plants need clay pot or plastic pot?

      Plants that like to be dry prefer terracotta because they wick away moisture. Plants that like to be moist like plastic or ceramic pots. I only put snake plants and zz plants in terracotta.

    How about the pots from Ikea?

      I’m honestly not really a fan of ikea’s pots. Their terra cotta is okay, but the only other pots I enjoy from them have been discontinued for a few years :(
