Ceramic pots are one of the most popular options for houseplants. These pots are well-known for their ability to prevent the soil from drying out due to a special coat of lacquer.

Some ceramic pots do not come with drainage holes, making it the perfect home for plants, which take well to sitting in stagnant water.

While ceramic planters tend to be more expensive than other options, the finely textured clay helps protect the plants from elements, ensuring a healthier and longer life. The pot's durability makes it the go-to choice for plants that are heavier on the top.

How to Prepare Your Pots

Before putting in your houseplants, it is recommended to place a layer of small rocks in the bottom of the pot. This prevents the roots from becoming waterlogged.

Fill your pot with soil. While all-purpose potting soil can accommodate most house plants, cacti thrive when placed in specialty soils. Place your ceramic pit on a plant stand if you plan to place it on wooden flooring to prevent the wood from rotting.
