Ceramic pots are a popular choice for potting plants because they have good characteristics for plants such as water absorption, breathability, durability, and weather resistance. But not every plant can live in the same type of ceramic pot. So let’s find out with Viet Thanh Ceramics how to choose the right ceramic pot for each type of ornamental plant through the article below:

1. The importance of choosing the right ceramic pot for each plant

Choosing the right pot for each plant offers many important benefits, including:

Meet the needs of the plant: Each plant has different requirements for space, moisture, drainage, and root system. Choosing the right ceramic pot helps to meet these requirements, creating the best environment for the growth and health of the plant.

Supporting drainage: The pot has good drainage, which helps prevent the plant from being flooded and the root system from rotting. This is especially important to avoid clogging and rotting of the root system.

Keeping plants moisturized: Ceramic pots have better absorption and moisture retention than other materials such as plastic. This helps to maintain the necessary moisture for the root system and reduces the risk of the plant becoming dry.

Protect the root system from high temperatures: Light-colored pots have the ability to reflect sunlight and reduce the surface temperature of the pot. This helps protect the root system from extreme temperatures and keeps the plant cooler in hot environments.

Create decorative accents: Pots come in a variety of colors, textures, and shapes, helping to create a decorative accent for the space. Choosing a ceramic pot that is suitable for the décor and the type of plant will create a harmonious and attractive whole.

Choosing the right ceramic pot for your plant has many benefits.

Pot size is an important factor when choosing a pot to grow a plant. Here are some guidelines for choosing the right ceramic pot size for your plants:

Small plants: If the tree is small in size, such as a grass tree, bonsai tree, or tree with a height of less than 30cm, a pot with a diameter of 10-15cm is suitable. This ensures that the roots have enough space to grow and absorb nutrients.

Medium plants: For medium-sized plants, such as leafy plants, flowering plants, or plants with a height of 30-60cm, pots with a diameter of 15-30cm are good choices. A larger pot will provide space for the root system to grow and keep the plant balanced.

Large plants: If the plants are large in size, such as trees, interior decoration plants, or plants with a height of more than 60cm, pots with a

2.2 Shape of the pot

Ceramic pots can come in various shapes such as round, square, rectangular, oval,… The shape of the pot should match the style and size of the plant. If the plant has a tall and upright shape, a cylindrical pot or a rectangular pot may be more suitable. If the plant has a wide and crawling shape, a round pot or oval pot may be better. Plants with large stems usually fit in rectangular pots, while plants with slender stems will fit in oval pots.

The color of the ceramic pot can create a highlight and be compatible with the plant, creating a harmonious decorative whole. Here are some guidelines for choosing ceramic pots by color:

Neutral color: Choose a white, gray, light brown, or earthy ceramic pot to create an elegant foundation and contrast with the color of the plant. Neutral colors are often suitable for a variety of plants and decorative spaces.

Contrasting colors: Choose ceramic pots with colors that contrast with the color of the plant’s leaves to create accents. This will create energy and attract attention dynamically. For example, the dominant colors are green and white of juniper that are best suited to red clay ceramic pots.

Similar colors: Choosing ceramic pots that are similar in color or similar to the color of the plant’s leaves will create a quieter, calmer composition. For example, a pine tree with gray bark will be well suited to a gray pot.

Colors that contrast with the environment: If you want your plants and ceramic pots to stand out in the space, choose pots with colors that contrast with your surroundings. For example, if the décor space has a

white wall background, choose red or green ceramic pots to create a contrast.
