- Patio
- Drainage sensitive plants
- Indoor outdoor
A classic breathable terracotta pot with saucer that's the natural choice for herbs, succulents and any plant prone to root rot, as long as you accept faster drying and the frost/breakage fragility of clay.
Pros
- Porous clay walls breathe and wick away excess moisture, ideal for drainage-sensitive plants
- Drainage hole plus included saucer make it ready to use indoors or out
- Heavy natural clay is stable and won't blow over the way lightweight resin does
Cons
- Clay is fragile and can crack or shatter if dropped or left to freeze full of wet soil
- Porous walls dry the soil out faster, so plants need watering more often
- Heavier and pricier per pot than comparable plastic, and awkward to move when planted
