What's Potting With Containers?
The Gardener
|July 2019
Indoor plants are the new popular design trend.

When choosing your indoor plants it’s important not to forget the role that containers play in completing a look. The explosion in the popularity of indoor gardening has made the choices for container types endless, and whether you’re going for traditional or ultra-modern there is bound to be a perfect container for you.
BASKETS
Woven baskets add a natural element to indoor spaces and pair perfectly with larger plants. Big, overhanging leaves or tall plants stems work best to provide a balance that highlights both the plant and the container. Combine the natural with the modern by using coloured baskets with simple stripes like black or white to make your indoor plants more striking.
POTS
A classic option with both versatility and functionality is the trusty pot. While other container types are modernising, pots are going back to basics, with terracotta as the number one choice. Terracotta pots work well with smaller plants with thicker, stiff leaves like succulents and can be displayed together in different shapes and sizes for variety.
