Grow your garden in dainty containers
Owning a house with spacious courtyard where one can plan a garden of one’s choice is everybody’s wish. But very few city dwellers are fortunate enough to afford that luxury as the pressure on land is increasing at a phenomenal rate by the day. Nevertheless, the passion for plants will not let one to breathe easy unless one fosters a dash of greenery at home. Flower pots with their economy of space are the immediate alternative in such cases. Even where a garde
n exists in full scale and scope, owners prefer to have flower pots lined up in front of their house just for the beauty of it.
When it comes to choosing a flower pot or a planter many go by their respective tastes and whims.
One should be fully aware of the purpose for which it would be used. One can not spend a fortune on brass containers just to have seasonal saplings in them. Or end up buying huge clay pots to grow indoor plants.
Market offers a variety of containers in clay, terracotta, cement, plastic, stone, metal and ceramic in different price ranges. “Cement planters will give a decent appearance to outdoor settings while those made of ceramic are meant for indoors,” Raj Tilak Singh, who runs a nursery on the banks of Musi at Chaderghat says. He has different varieties and sizes of pots in ceramic with prices ranging from Rs.20 to Rs.2,000. Brought from Khurja of Uttar Pradesh the pots are either painted or engraved and some are available with beautiful ceramic stands with water outlets in them.
