3 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Buying Pots & Planters

1/5/2018

 
how to choose garden pots
1. Buying pots of differing colours, shapes, sizes & material

2. Not buying big enough
When you buy a pot, the pot, or the grouping of pots needs to take up a third of the space it will sit in.  This often means investing in a really large pot, or many large pots.  The image above shows just how generously sized pots can look really great in a big space.
