A person always strives to create the most comfortable living conditions for himself, whether it is a workplace or a warm home nest. One of the methods to transform the space around are flowers. It seems that everything is simple, but there are a lot of nuances in this topic. The flower should be comfortable in the proposed conditions. The first moment is a flower pot.
Designer Stuff
The shape of the intended pot should match the plant. If it has the shape of a bush and is flowering, then a bright flower pot would be a bad idea. Attention should fall on the flower itself, and not on the bright ornament of the flowerpot. A good option is chocolate-colored ceramic pots, they can hide the usual container with a plant. A modest unremarkable flower should be placed in a beautifully designed, eye-catching pot. Both objects will complement each other with their beauty. To avoid feeling gaudy, use simple plastic flower pots with lush plants.
Interior decor
Focusing on the overall color scheme and style of the interior is important. The plant should not stand out from the overall picture, but it needs to stand out slightly. The calm monotonous atmosphere of the room can be diluted with brightpot with an exotic flower inside. Classics among flower pots are products of yellow, orange, beige shades.
Materials for flower pots
Clay pots for flowers are the most favorable for the plant. The material allows the flower to breathe and favorably affects its development and growth. If you like a decorative ceramic pot, then you can use it as an interior element by placing a simple flower pot in it. Clay walls will take on excess moisture, this is a guaranteed protection of the plant from excess water. At the same time, the plant will have to be watered more often. At high temperatures, the earth in a clay pot will heat up faster, in the cold season it will cool faster.
Plastic flower pots perfectly transmit the rays of the sun, ensuring the process of photosynthesis of the roots. There is no evaporation due to the non-porosity of the material. Modern technologies for the production of plastic pots do not guarantee 100% availability of useful components. This can adversely affect the condition of the root system if the plant is sensitive. Expanded clay is relevant in order to avoid moisture stagnation in the pot.
Wooden flower pot retains heat well, relevant during the period of seasonal planting. The downside is that wooden pots are short-lived and require maintenance.
Flower pot dimensions
If you miscalculate the size of the pot, you can destroy the plant.
Popular pot shape amongflower growers - a cone-shaped container. The soil in such a pot well absorbs moisture, favorable gas exchange is provided.
In round pots, there is a danger of acidification of the middle layer of soil, which falls on a wide part of the container. If a flower transplant is necessary, then certain difficulties will arise.
Plants get along well in square or rectangular pots. In this case, the choice is up to the owner.
Choose the size of the pot depending on the abundance of the roots of the plant. If there is not enough space for the roots, then the growth of the flower itself will slow down significantly.
