Each container comes with a drainage hole to ensure healthy roots, and to save the plants from over-watering.
Why? Because we love our plants and want them to survive for a lifetime, even when they're no longer in our care. So take a look at our collection, whether it's a gift for yourself or for someone else, you'll definitely be happy with your new succulent baby.
OUR PROCESS
We personally shop for all of our planters, then drill a drainage hole into those that don't have one. This ensures healthy roots and perfect soil conditions for succulents and cacti. Some of our bigger planters may contain recycled water bottles for volume. 
Next, we take special care planting the succulent in its new pot. We add a decorative top dressing that serves a few purposes. Aside from adding a pleasing element to the composition, it also serves as a layer that keeps the top portion of the soil from drying out too quickly.
Once the planter is put together, we keep an eye on it for a few weeks to ensure the plants are adjusting well to their new home. That way, they'll be happy in their planters when they get to your home or place of business.
