Tips for choosing an InGreen Fiji flower pot
It would seem, is it really so important in which flower pot the houseplant grows, because in essence they are all the same. Nevertheless, the choice of a container for plants is an important event. Often, vegetation in unsuitable pots grows worse or begins to wilt.
Criterias of choice
There are a number of features to consider when choosing a flower pot.
- The ratio of width to height. The neck width should be equal to the height of the product itself.
- Bottom dimensions. The bottom should not be too narrow. In addition, it is best to choose the bottom flat or inclined towards the center. In caring for plants, it is important that it does not stick close to the sump, as this leads to stagnation of water in the lower layers of the soil. Therefore, several flat stones are placed in the pallet and a container is already placed on them. A space is formed between the bottom of the product and the tray, which provides not only the release of excess liquid, but also the flow of air to the plant.
- The size of the water outlet. The most preferred size of the drain hole is from 1 to 2.5 cm. Large products should have several holes for water outlet.
- Porous material. It is important for the plant to get air to the root system. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the walls and bottom of the container are made of breathable material. Clay is best suited for these purposes. If the interior of the room involves the use of products made of porcelain, metal, plastic, then it is advisable to put a pot made of a porous material of a smaller size in such a container.
Thus, in order to choose a quality product, it is not enough to be guided simply by the appearance and style of a flower pot.
If you want to preserve the long life of indoor plants, you will have to take the purchase seriously.
Plastic or ceramic?
Different materials are used to make flower pots. But the most popular are plastic and clay. At the same time, plastic pots are in demand due to the fact that they differ in a variety of designs and colors and are suitable for any interior.

Today you can find InGreen Fiji flower pots in many stores. The peculiarity of these products is their unusual design. The set includes an inner container and an outer planter. The plant is placed in a container located inside.
All pots of this brand, as indicated by the instruction manual, are containers with an automatic irrigation system. The principle of such watering is that when watering, water is collected in the lower part of the pot, between the inner container and the outer planter. The water then enters the soil again, seeping from below or from the side.
The advantage of automatic irrigation systems in flower pots is the saving of time spent on watering the plant. In addition, due to the presence of a reservoir into which water flows, the lower layers of the soil do not stagnate in the water, and the roots of the plant do not suffer from hypothermia or excess moisture.
The big advantage of InGreen Fiji pots is the presence of drainage holes, thanks to which air circulates in the container. This manufacturer has standard pots with a capacity of 5 liters, for example, a burgundy pot D 230 MM, 23 cm in diameter.
And also there are large pots on wheels. For example, a white Fiji D 330 mm pot for 16 liters or a Fiji D 33 cm model in graphite color. Such products can be moved from place to place due to the wheels attached to the bottom of the pot.
The pots of the described brand are made of high quality polypropylene. Most often this material is opaque. But for planting some plants, for example, orchids, in the line there is a model Fiji "Orchid" D 160 MM / 1.6 L. For the manufacture of this product, transparent plastic is used, which allows sunlight to pass through. This ensures photosynthesis in the root system of the plant.
A more simplified model is the D 190 MM transparent orchid pot.
However, it does not have an internal planting container, which means it is a standard product with a pallet.
InGreen Fiji flower pots come in a variety of colors to suit any room. They combine well the price / quality parameters, as they are available to buyers and prove their useful properties.
