Questions You Should Know about Faux Succulents In Pots

Repotting in Soil

You can use soil when repotting artificial plants in flower pots and planters, however, the process isn’t as complicated as potting real plants and flowers to help them grow. Aside from giving it a more lifelike impression, soil simply anchors the artificial arrangement in your chosen vessel. Unlike real potted plants, you don’t have to worry about using the correct soil type or ensuring proper water drainage.

Use dry soil, as the dampness can damage or degrade your artificial plants. Also, check the pot often for bugs or pests in the dirt, which could affect your faux foliage.

Using Pot Fillers

Besides soil, consider using sand, small aquarium pebbles, marbles, or even glass beads. The idea is to add enough volume or weight to your pot planter to stabilize the arrangement. In addition, these will conceal the basic pot your arrangement came in if you’re not removing it.

Another idea is to layer different potting materials. Try stabilizing the arrangement with chunks of floral foam or a few inches of soil. Then, top the more visible part with smooth river rocks or other decorative accessories to complete the look.

Picking the Perfect Planter

Planters make or break the overall look of your potted greenery. The right size and design will complement the foliage and your home’s overall décor. While the type of planter is a matter of preference, there are also practical considerations. Here’s how to pick the best planters for your artificial plants.

1.  Get the proportions right

Planter diameter is a factor when considering keeping artificial plants from tipping over. Aim for 2 to 4 inches of space from the base of your arrangement to the edge of your planter. To ensure your display looks its best, measure the height of the planter against the existing starter pot. Select a new planter that’s taller or deeper to conceal the rim of the smaller pot nestled inside.

Similarly, check the space between the planter’s rim and where the foliage’s bottom begins. There should be enough space to conceal the starter pot and add filler. If a planter is too deep, consider raising the base with a few inches of sand or soil to lift your artificial flowers or topiary.

2.  Choose a planter that complements your space

Let your choice of indoor planter contribute to your space’s overall look and feel. Rustic textures like woven baskets add a cozy ambience to your porch or patio, while stone-finish planters with sculpted details are a more formal option. Regardless of design, ensure your planter is durable enough for indoor and outdoor use.
