How to Use Decorative Pots with Drainage Holes Indoors
Finding a stylish pot for your indoor plants can enhance your living space. If your new pot has drainage holes, here’s how to make it work without the hassle.
Keep Your Plant in Its Original Pot
Instead of transferring your plant into the decorative pot, keep it in its nursery pot and place that inside the new one. This helps you avoid the mess of repotting while preventing overwatering issues.
Simple Watering Process
When it’s time to water your plant, simply lift the nursery pot out and water it in the sink or outside. Let any excess water drain before returning it to the decorative pot.
Protect Your Floors with a Tray
To prevent any water from leaking onto your floor, use a plastic tray underneath the nursery pot. This will catch any excess water and keep your space tidy.
By following these straightforward tips, you can enjoy your decorative pots while ensuring your plants stay healthy and your home remains clean.
