Crafted from premium Italian terracotta, the Bordo Italia Extra Large Terracotta Pot combines timeless elegance with exceptional durability. Featuring a classic rolled rim design, this handcrafted planter enhances traditional and contemporary garden spaces alike. Available in three generous sizes, it provides ample space for trees, shrubs, and decorative floral displays, while its frost-proof construction ensures year-round resilience in all weather conditions.

Design Features

The Bordo Italia Pot is designed for both function and beauty, with its wide rolled rim framing plants elegantly while offering structural strength. Each size includes a single drainage hole, promoting healthy root development and preventing waterlogging. Whether placed as a standalone statement piece or paired with terracotta pot feet for a finished look, this classic Italian planter will develop a beautiful aged patina over time.

Materials

Handmade from high-quality, kiln-fired Italian terracotta, the Bordo Italia Pot is built to withstand frost and seasonal changes. The natural clay composition allows for breathability, supporting optimal plant health, while its warm, earthy tones seamlessly blend into garden, courtyard, and patio settings.

Care

How to choose your Gardenesque planter

Flower pots come in all shapes and sizes. Your plant should always live in a planter that is slightly larger than the plant itself as they will need enough space for their roots need to grow without becoming pot bound.


Select your plant and note the diameter of the growing pot it is planted in. Our plant pots can be measured in two ways:

  • The volume of the pot in litres (common in larger pots and planters)
  • They can also be measured by the diameter across the top, their height and width. (Usually displayed in either centimetres or inches)

When choosing a pot for both outdoor and indoor plants, choose a pot that is 1-2 inches larger than the current size its planted in. If the pot size is more than 10”, choose a pot that is 2-3 inches larger in diameter. The container should be about half the height of your plant. Using this design principle, a 9-inch pot would suit an 18-inch plant.. .

Bay Bordo

My bay tree's pot cracked last winter so I ordered a frost proof Bordo Italia pot to re-home it. I'm delighted with both the pot and the very speedy delivery! I'm going to order another one for a fast-growing fig 😊

Great pots

EXcellent large pots

I was very happy with these pots...indeed after buying the first four, I bought four more! The only problem was that whilst the first batch came on a pallet well wrapped, the second lot came loose...no pallet, no wrapping. Inevitably one was chipped...you need to insist that the carriers do not do this!!
