FAQs
Yes – our terracotta pots are crafted from high-quality clay and kiln-fired at high temperatures to make them withstand the British weather, including frost. We recommend raising your pots slightly off the ground using pot feet to ensure proper drainage throughout the colder months.
Absolutely. Terracotta is a naturally porous material, which means it allows air and water to circulate through the soil — encouraging strong, healthy root systems. It also helps regulate soil temperature, keeping roots cool in the summer. This makes it a particularly thoughtful choice for herbs, shrubs and small trees. Just be mindful to water a little more often in the summer, as terracotta tends to dry out more quickly than glazed or plastic pots.
Choosing the right size pot makes all the difference. For most plants, you’ll want a pot that’s slightly larger than the root ball to allow for growth without overwhelming it. For trees or larger shrubs, a deep and wide pot provides the support and stability they need. Our collection includes extra-large terracotta pots that are ideal for olive trees, bay, and other statement planting.
