A Special Pot for Orchid Breeders.

Breeding orchids in the home is not so easy, as they require as far as possible the same conditions as in their natural habitat in the tropics – high humidity, to be taken up by the aerial roots that don’t grow in the soil. Our pots successfully simulate this natural microclimate by generating a continuous humid atmosphere around the body of the plant, which seeps upward though side holes as a result of water evaporation in the lower bowl. They are hand-made of clay from the Upper Lausitz area of east Germany, famous for its almost white, dense substance that can be fired to produce an extra-hard china that is later given a colour-neutral glaze. Instructions for use enclosed.
