3 Small Cool Pots
Cool Pots™ for Masdevallias
& other cool growing orchids These clay pots were designed
and made by hand specifically to help you grow spectacular Masdevallias, Miltoniopsis and other orchids that like cool, damp
conditions.
The offering here is for three small Cool Pots™ for $14.99 plus $8.50 for shipping
via UPS Ground.
They have a clay cone in the center and the
drain holes are elevated slightly above the bottom of the pot, so the pot holds a small amount of water at the bottom after
watering.
They are fairly porous and absorb that water quickly. The water then evaporates from the outside of
the pot and down through the center cone. This acts as an evaporative cooler and keeps the media around the roots 8
to 10 degrees cooler than it normally would be.
We started making and using these pots last year and the
difference in how well our mazzies and milts grow and bloom in them is amazing.
They grow at least twice as fast
as the plants in plastic pots on the bench right beside them.
These pots are hand made from recycled clay
and there will be slight variations in size and color.
Each pot is 3 to 3.5 inches in diameter. They are
approximately 3 inches high.
These are perfect for masdevallia seedlings and divisions, and miltoniopsis seedlings.
The pictures show the pots, and the last picture shows one of our masdevallias growing happily in the same kind of pot.
We have been selling out of these at orchid shows.
