What kind of pot should I use for Desert Rose?

1. Flowerpot Material

This type of plant cannot tolerate water and prefers a dry growing environment. If the material of the flowerpot is not breathable, accidentally watering it too much will make it difficult to breathe and the roots will not be able to breathe inside. Therefore, the material of the flowerpot needs to be breathable and have a certain degree of permeability. You can use a clay pot or a purple clay pot. It is best not to use a plastic pot. If you want to maintain the beauty, you can use a clay pot inside and a plastic pot outside.

2. Flowerpot size

The size of the flowerpot needs to be determined according to the size of the plant. When planting small plants, the flowerpot cannot be too high. The height needs to match the plant. Do not use a large pot for a small seedling. Otherwise, it will be difficult to control the amount of water. You may accidentally water the plant too much, and the plant will find it difficult to control the water. It is also not appropriate to choose a small flowerpot, as the roots will have difficulty absorbing nutrients from it, and the plant will feel top-heavy, seriously affecting its appearance.

3. With drainage holes

Another very important point is that the flower pot you choose must have drainage holes at the bottom. It cannot be a sealed flower pot. This way, if too much water is poured, it can drain out from the bottom of the pot.
