Terra Cotta Tuesday

 


Terra Cotta and antique pottery pots are probably my favorite types of containers for houseplants. A collection continues to grow, stored on our porch, and is at the ready to size up rootbound cacti, succulents or those crazy big Monsteras. that have outgrown their current pots. I love how the clay ages <3

Clay pots are a great option for indoor use, especially when it comes to plants that prefer dry soil, like succulents and cacti. These porous clay pots absorb water and allow excess moisture to be wicked out from the soil more quickly which helps to not develop root rot in that precious collection.
Senecio rowleyanus or String-of-Pearls, East side


Pilea peperomioides or Chinese Money Plant that has been in a bonsai pot for 3 years, South side


Oxalis triangularis or Purple Clover lives on my desk, 12 ft. from a South window


Sansevieria cylindrica or Starfish Snake plant, Epiphyllum anguliger or Zig Zag cactus and Zamioculcas zamiifolia or Raven on the workbench, north side.


Starts of Pelargonium Chocolate Mint and Atomic Snowflake Scented Geraniums in the studio, South side

Peperomia caperata Frost , a small Aloe that I just separated and a Crassula Ogre Ears Jade plant that is not doing so great on the plant stand in the kitchen, East side of the house

enjoy, take care-
