Seal Your Terracotta Pots

To prevent water absorption and cracking during the cold winter months, seal your pots with a breathable sealant, particularly if you're facing harsh UK winters.

Provide Proper Drainage

Ensure your pots have proper drainage by placing a layer of gravel or broken pottery at the bottom before adding soil, helping plants thrive in UK climates.

Clean Your Pots Regularly

To avoid algae build-up, which is common in the UK's damp weather, clean your terracotta pots regularly with warm water and a brush.

Store in a Frost-Free Area in Winter

Move your terracotta pots to a sheltered or frost-free location during freezing months to avoid cracking, a common issue in the UK winter.

What is the downside of terracotta pots?

Terracotta pots are porous and can absorb water, which may lead to cracking in cold weather. To avoid this, ensure the pots are sealed or bring them inside during the UK's harsh winters.

Do plants prefer terracotta pots?

Yes, terracotta pots are breathable and allow for better airflow to the plant roots. Many plants, including succulents and cacti, thrive in the UK's temperate climate with terracotta pots.

What plants should not be in terracotta pots?

Plants that require consistently moist soil, like ferns or tropical plants, may not thrive in terracotta pots as they dry out quickly, which is common in the UK's changing weather.

What is the difference between clay pots and terracotta pots?

Terracotta is a type of clay fired at lower temperatures, giving it a distinctive reddish-brown colour and porous texture. Not all clay pots are terracotta, but it remains a popular choice in UK gardens.

Are glazed pots better than terracotta?

Glazed pots hold moisture better than terracotta, making them ideal for plants that need more consistent watering, especially in the drier parts of the UK. However, they don’t offer the same airflow benefits.

Do terracotta pots need drainage holes?

Yes, terracotta pots should have drainage holes to prevent water from pooling, which could lead to root rot, especially during heavy rainfall in UK gardens.
