Keep your Plants Happy with Extra Large Plant Pots
Are you an avid gardener with limited space in which to place plants and flowers? Using large flower pots to create a luscious green area might be the right solution for you! Why not browse through eBay's selection of large plant pots to find the right solution for your needs?
Can any plant be placed in a plant pot?
Yes, in general, most plants can be planted in a plant pot. When selecting the pot for your plant, it is important to bear the size of the plant in mind. Larger plants will require a large plant pot in order to be happy and grow well.
Should pot plants be watered daily?
Luckily, not all plants require daily watering. Many plant species prefer to be watered less frequently and can become rather unhappy when they are watered too often. As a rule of thumb, you should only water plants when the soil in your giant plant pots feel dry to the touch.
Preparing your large plant pots for flowers
When it comes to gardening, preparation is key. Before you place any plant in a pot, it is important to ensure that the pot is correctly prepared to receive the plant. Follow these simple tips for success:
- Wash the pot: This step is important to ensure that there are no spores or fungi in the pot that could damage your plant. Pots can be washed with a solution of warm water and mild detergent. Make sure to rinse thoroughly to remove the soap.
- Prepare the soil: Select the right type of soil for the plant in question and add some bone meal to the soil to provide the plant with adequate nutrition. You should fill your large plant pot with enough soil to cover the plant's roots completely.
- Plant the plant: Lastly, plant the seedling in the soil and ensure that it is completely covered with soil. You can use your palms to compact the soil around the seedling for a secure fit and add some water to keep the seedling happy and encourage growth.
Using large plant pots indoors
Extra large plant pots can be used indoors and outdoors, which makes them very versatile. While extra large plant pots are particularly suitable for very large plants and outdoor use, large plant pots are also ideal for use inside the home. You can even find giant plant pots that are suitable for plants, such as trees, on eBay.
