Planter Care Tips

Natural, porous, and beautifully rustic.

• Allow to breathe: Terracotta is porous, which helps soil dry out evenly—great for plants that don’t like wet feet (like succulents).

• Use with drainage: Always pair with a drainage hole or use as a cover pot with an inner plastic liner.

• Watering caution: Because it absorbs moisture, terracotta can dry out more quickly - make sure to check the soil more often.

• Winter care: If used outdoors, bring inside during freezing weather to avoid cracking.

Sleek, aged, and industrial with character.

• Avoid standing water: Prolonged exposure to moisture can cause rust or white residue—empty excess water regularly.

• Indoor or sheltered outdoor use: Works best indoors or in sheltered outdoor areas.

• Clean gently: Wipe with a soft cloth to maintain the patina; avoid harsh cleaners.

Lightweight, durable, and low-maintenance.

• Easy drainage: All of our plastic pots come with built-in drainage—great for all-purpose use.

• Clean periodically: Wipe down or rinse with mild soapy water to avoid buildup of algae or salts.

• Protect from heat: Very dark plastic pots can heat up quickly in direct sun - keep an eye on soil moisture and plant health.

• Indoor or outdoor: Versatile and weather-resistant, though long-term sun exposure may fade colour over time.

Textured, natural, and full of warmth.

• Always use with a liner or nursery pot to protect the basket from moisture (our wicker comes with liners!)

• Do not place directly on damp surfaces

• Bring indoors or cover during wet or cold weather to prevent damage

• Dust occasionally with a soft cloth or brush to keep it looking fresh

• Keep the planter dry as much as possible to prevent wood rot.

• Use a plastic liner or place a nursery pot inside to protect the wood from moisture.

• Avoid prolonged exposure to standing water or wet soil.

• If used outdoors, place the planter in a sheltered area to reduce weather damage.

• Bring indoors during freezing or very wet conditions to extend lifespan.

• Clean gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
