Do flower pots need saucers?

Whilst they aren’t necessary, plant pots use saucers to collect the water that drains from your pot. Without this, it can easily spill onto your carpets, floors and furniture. So after each watering, your saucer will capture the excess water, preventing any spillage in your home.

Why do planter pots have saucers?

Saucers under plants are shallow dishes used to catch excess water that drains from a container planting. Standing water can promote excess soil moisture and cause plant roots to rot. Plant saucers can also be used with outdoor containers.

Do ceramic pots drain well?

At a glance, you may think a ceramic pot is simply a terracotta pot with a good paint job. Still, you’ll save yourself a lot of trouble by opting for a pot with drainage holes. Even with drainage holes, the glazes on ceramics will still cause these pots to retain more moisture than unpainted terracotta.

What to put under pots with holes?

Cover the drainage hole of the container before planting, using a material that allows water to drain freely while holding the potting soil in. Ideas include a piece of broken pottery or a small square of fine mesh screen. You can also place a paper coffee filter or a layer of folded newspaper over the hole.
