Choosing the Perfect Pot for Your Faux Plants

Selecting the right pot for your new faux indoor plants is straightforward but does require some careful thought to achieve the perfect results. The decorative pots you choose for your new houseplants can significantly impact the overall aesthetic appeal in your chosen space.


Here are some key considerations:


● Select the Correct-Sized Pot

The size of your pot is crucial for achieving the perfect visual balance. The pot should complement the plant without overwhelming it - or appearing too small. Interior designers recommend that the pot's diameter should be 2.5- 5 cm (1-2 inches) larger than the plant’s widest foliage. This rule ensures that the container will look well-proportioned.

If you plan to display a group of artificial plants in a large planter or trough, a pot measuring one metre in diameter is ideal for up to eight individual plants. Experiment with how you will arrange them in the pot/ planter to ensure each that plant’s foliage complements the others.


● Consider colour coordination

The colour pot you choose can dramatically influence the overall look of your house plant in its space. Opt for a colour that harmonises with your décor and provides a pleasing contrast to the plant's lush foliage. Classic neutral colours like black, white, cream, beige, and grey all blend effortlessly with any colour scheme. For a trendy alternative, why not consider one of the new metallic finishes? This will add visual interest to any room.


● Match the style of the space

Think about where you are planning to display your new artificial plant. If your plant will be in a modern, minimalist space, choose a pot with clean lines and/or geometric shapes. In a rustic setting, natural colours like terracotta or stone work really well. Planters made from natural materials like bark, wood, or woven fabrics add to the organic ambiance. 

● Material matters

Decorative pots are available in a wide variety of materials. Ceramic pots, are well known for adding elegance and sophistication to traditional and classically styled interiors. They come in glossy or matte finishes to perfectly suit your style.


For a more eclectic look, terrazzo pots with abstract patterns or naturally-coloured concrete pots that generate an industrial vibe are both excellent choices. Other options include lightweight, durable pots made from fibreglass or resin. Trending designs feature pots crafted from woven natural materials or decorated with stones, shells, and moss. Natural materials like clay and terracotta are popular for the warm tones and organic feel they bring to a space.


● The trending pot styles

Scandinavian-styled pots are currently extremely popular due to their minimalist designs and understated elegance that suits so many spaces. Matt black indoor plant pot covers are also currently trending as they are perfect for adding modern sophistication. Textured pots with stucco, ribs, and swirls, as well as those with modern geometric patterns, add tactile appeal and extra visual interest to any space.
