In order to choose a pot suitable for a plant, you should first check the roots of your plant to see which kind is suitable. Plants are largely divided into two types: ones that put their roots down deeply into the ground and ones that spread out on the soil surface. These plants usually have thick roots with sufficient water contained in them.

For the spreading type, a bonsai pot is suitable, and for the other type, an orchid pot is good (this is not a pot only for orchids; other plants can be planted in it). For thin, wiry roots, a large terracotta pot is recommended. Terracotta pot refers to a biscuit-fired ceramic pot. It can allow air ventilation and prevent excessive watering, and it is also easy to identify salt accumulation. While simple, these differences form the basis for a plant to grow more healthy and beautiful, so it is important to choose a pot for the appropriate use.
