Since small plants are usually potted in quite shallow soil, they require more frequent watering and often need to be moved around. Some of the best small plants for growing in pots include succulents, cacti, herbs, vines, ferns and moss. Succulents don’t require much water or care – just occasional watering and a lot of sunlight will do the trick! Herbs like basil and mint can also add wonderful flavor to food while adding a pop of color indoors. Vines such as English Ivy can quickly fill out small spaces or window boxes with lush greenery. Ferns make great desk-side decorations that won’t take up too much space either. Lastly, Mosses add an interesting texture and color to the area, while requiring minimal water or maintenance.
Small pots don't have to limit your gardening ambitions - many beautiful plants will thrive in a small pot! Tangerine Scarlet Star and Sansevieria Starfish are two of the most impressive varieties. Tangerine Scarlet Star is a richly coloured succulent with long thin leaves, while Sansevieria Starfish is an evergreen houseplant that blooms heart-shaped flowers. Both require little upkeep, making them ideal choices for small planters. Enjoy the beauty of these plants by displaying them indoors or outdoors on a sunny patio or balcony where they can add colour and life without taking up much space.
