This is a difficult question, and it depends on how much time and money you want to invest in your balcony or garden and if the pot you are considering has a decorative or purely agricultural role. With the right planning, it can be both. But let’s proceed evaluating different scenarios. I recommend choosing a vase made with natural materials such as terracotta or stone, if growing the plants is the purpose. These materials, in fact, are permeable to water, so they offer good drainage through evaporation.
Fiberglass is a beautiful material to use for this purpose and comes in hundreds of colours, shapes and sizes, so it’s easy to find the perfect one for your garden.

A solution that satisfies everyone: cachepot plant pots
The “cachepot” is used to hide the growth pot and contextualize the plant. It is an excellent solution not only to hide functional outdoor plant pots, but also to play with shapes and colours, defining a small picture in your outdoor spaces.
To place your plants on your patio, balcony or roof terrace, or other spaces with hard floors, your best bet are fiberglass and plastic plant pots. These are extremely durable and made of weather resistant materials, suitable for both cold and hot climates.
