I just LOVE one of my newest plant pots and I want to fil...

#NewPlantMom
I LOVE this planter! How cool! So how big is it? I can see it has drainage so that’s a plus.
Very cool! I took a quick peek at your oasis - your calthea might go nicely in there! Otherwise, maybe consider syngoniums in complimentary colours? A trailing plant would also be lovely - I have a Scindapsus Dark Treubii that I can imagine would go nicely in there. Not sure if these are helpful or making it harder 🙃 hope you find the plant to match this awesome pot!
That's cool!! 😎 Ooh a trailing plant would look lush in that! Or... How about an Oxalis?! I love mine, they're so beautiful, but it would amazing in that pot! (Especially one of the more colourful variations 🥰) Xx
@SensationalKoa oh man I love that pot! It is unique and that’s what I love about it. It looks like another planet of some sort.. ❤️😍🤩
Wow🤩 that pot is so cool🪐 Maybe you can fit a calathea beauty star in it🤩🌟 or your white fusion 💚🤍

I think a snake plant would look great too!🪴
Oh Saturn, very cool or is that Venus Jupiter? I’m not sure if it’s very cool. I like it. I just got a new pot myself. I think I put it on the web photo.
LOOOVE!! Can't wait to see what you put in it! 😄
@Propa So, this Lovely Unique Pot is the large size of 5 inches in height without the drainage saucer and 6.4 inches in diameter and this pot is produced with material made with decomposed stone and a 100% renewable and degradable plant-based biopolymer. This bioplastic, made from corn, wheat, sugarbeets, and sugarcane, is rugged enough to handle regular watering and exposure chemicals commonly used in indoor plant care.
JUPITERRRRRRR!!!! Holy xrap pleeeease tell me where you got that. I love it! And I’d do something wacky like a black ZZ plant or someone with crazy leaves….
@ballondusoleil @JenniB81 Its actually really-pot day for “Bella” my Calathea “Stella” White Fusion, however I have another pot for her I was going to put her in here, I because this pot was originally meant for the room she’s in I just think she’d out grow this pot fast because she’s long overdue for a re-pot yet I’m afraid to re-pot here because she’s thriving and I’m so new at this I don’t want to kill her, I’ll cry. I was actually thinking a trailing plant would look the Bomb in this as well
Wow, I love that! I would maybe try a trailing plant? (I just got a tradescantia nanouk, so a little biased :) ) - realistically, a bushy climber might eventually cover the pot. What about a couple weird succulents? Like lithops and baby fingers, crassula… something that looks a little alien. 👾 🪐 🌱
Omg this is STUNNING 🤤😍
@CourtlyKingfern Thank you, I agree, it’s so cool 😎
@PoetCashew i was about to say a tradescantia as well because it totally matches the vibe 😍
BROOOO NO WAY!!?? Where do I snatch???
I was thinking something that would stand up straight so it didn’t cover up that awesome pot, like a zz plant (take your pick of regular, chameleon, raven, variegated etc), schleffera (variegated looks neat!), there’s just lots of cool things that could go in there. Those are my top picks tho. Here’s the plants for reference
I love that!!! I think Geogenanthus ciliatus would look cool in that, with its black color.
@Vonster The pop of pink too, yes! 👏
Oooh Madeline!! @sensationalkoa) Now I'm REALLY hooked!! That's amazing... A totally biodegradable, 100% echo friendly or that looks THAT GOOD?! 🥰 WHERE DID YOU GET IT?! I have to know (sorry for "shouting"! Lmao 🤣😂) xxx
@MockingJay Thank you, I think it is cool as well, thank you for the suggestion I have a Raven ZZ Plant on the way, I was maybe considering that because that will arrive in a 6” nursery pot, then again May out grow it fast. A Calathea Beauty Star sounds great as well as the many suggestions here I’ll have to look, see and consider.
I will share an update to what I’ve chosen to everyone’s suggestions for sure. Keep a watchful
Keep a watchful eye out.
These pots come in two different sizes and an array of colors to choose from from pot color to disc so you can individualize your own to your home’s color scheme or environment and if you’d like I will share where you can get this environmentally safe pot made for plants as I posted in a reply above.
@JenniB81 On Etsy at a store called LunaPlantCo
@Propa I have a 6” Raven ZZ Plant making its way home 🏡 to me and should be here in a day or so, yet then was thinking of a trailing and thought it may cover the pot or sit on the ring for a while.
It might look neat sitting in the ring for a bit but that was my thoughth, maybe it would cover that cool pot and u definitely want to be able to see it!
I have to take a look at all the suggestions being given, I appreciate all of them and when The Plant Store opens up to me in the waitlist line it will get hairy-scary too chose. Thank you to all who have responded so far, just wow!
@Vonster I am currently awaiting Tradescantia Zebrina cuttings because my Nanouk is going to get potted shortly permanently for a while in the pot she’s sitting in meet Lavender Blue Jean
That is an awesome planter! It makes me think space, so my brain went alien, and I thought of Euphorbia Lactea Cristata.
@RealSimpleMama I posted where below and the sizes and what it’s made of here and I’m awaiting my ZZ Raven, and was looking for suggestions because I’d definitely like to choose something as unique as it is.
@SensationalKoa okay you officially win coolest decorative plant pot collection 😍👏🙌
Thank you Madeline!! I'm gonna go check it out 🥰
@Vonster thank you, and more to come, to see in the future Surprise! I just waiting to fill them all with plants. I consider myself unique in taste and style so that goes for many things I collect as well.
@Vonster and whimsicality as well.
Hi , I am new here
I am@passionate about indoor plants and succulents. As I am in Maine and a bit of extreme weather .
I would love to hear from you and if anyone near me . 💖
Stunning!👏🏾😍
Very unique and cute
oh my god!! this is absolutely nUTS 🥹🥹 i’m so in love
@Soothsayer Funny, I was just looking at that I believe the other day although with our climate and season changes I’m not sure this would thrive. The look is definitely unique.
Nice, I really like that.
@JenniB81 okay, let me know if you chose to get one and how you chose yours to look like if so,
I will Madeline! @SensationalKoa) I get paid next week and REALLY need some larger pots so... I'm hooked! Lol 🤣 make sure you post pics when you decide which lucky plant is going in your Saturn!? 🥰 Xx
Love it!

@SensationalKoa How funny! Unfortunate that it wouldn’t thrive well in your area. I’m sure there is something out there as unique as your planter!
Put a ufo plant in it lol it would be fitting. Pilea pepermiodes
Where did you get that incredible pot? I’m loving it… 👀
that pot is so cool! im in love! where’d you get it?
A Chinese money plant or Moon Plant!

@birb.lover125 it’s posted above along with how it is biodegradably plant based made, 100% eco-friendly made, the sizes and individual to what you select in colors available to choose and create the uniqueness for your own environment.
@ThisCalatheaCan it is posted above with info on how it is made, sizes and such…
@JenniB81 I will be it already has a partial name “Wanderer”
@VipSeraphina & @DevineButterfly that's a GREAT idea from you both! A Pilea would look "out if this world" in that pot!! 🥰👽🛸🤣🤣 (Pun absolutely intended! Lmao... I'm Channelling my inner @seymour 🤣🤣) xx
@SensationalKoa that's fab Madeline!! I love the *** Wanderer idea 🥰🥰 xx
@PlantJedi Thank you Miguel! You don’t have a suggestion for me of all Healthy Plant Father’s, I thought maybe a Rare Ring of Fire Philodendron or a Croton Mammy along with all the other beautiful suggestions that are coming in, I’d love to hear yours, too. It looks like it’s going to be a big decision still with all the wonderful suggestions, it will be a real cool “Reveal Party”.
@VipSeraphina Loving this suggestion too, perfectly fitting I’d say as well.
@DevineButterfly absolutely loving this idea, it’s perfectly fitting.
A pencil cactus tree would be neat also. Since it is a clay pot, any drought tolerant plant would be fine.
@SensationalKoa Just a suggestion. Place a plant of your choice in a 4”-5” clear container/nursery pot & then place inside this extraordinary pot. This way if the plant outgrows the planter, you won’t have an issue removing from the pot. Plus it is fun to switch up plants that you favor in your favorite pot. 🪐 🪴

Def a plant that grows upward so you don’t cover up this rad planter! Maybe some purple shamrock to match the purple ring?
Star cactus
You could do any but I think a space/galaxy related plant would be cool
So awesome! I’d put a tall ficus or palm in it 🪴🪐
@RousingSourwood it isn’t a clay pot although I thought that at first when I saw it. However, it is a 100% plant based, bio-degradable planter pot This pot is produced with material made with decomposed stone and a 100% renewable and degradable plant-based biopolymer. This bioplastic, made from corn, wheat, sugarbeets, and sugarcane, is rugged enough to handle regular watering and exposure chemicals commonly used in indoor plant care.
I wanna Calthea, but I managed to kill the first one turns out they don’t like water And they definitely don’t like sitting in water. That’s what killed it!?
@Rockrlee Thanks Lisa, I great suggestion I was thinking the same thing when I purchased it, that, that is really the only downfall, I thought to just start with a plant in a planters pot of 4”and just sit it in there since it has a 3.5 inch circumference opening to it to get a plant out and not ruin the pot. Kudos, for this suggestion!
@WarmStarsedge aww, that’s what happened to my Calathea Pink Pinstripe because 1. I’m a new plant Mom, 2. It was end of February when I adopted her 3. Knew nothing that I know now about the type water, humidity, and moisture it needed, it was a really Beauty yet lasted me a month because I knew nothing, lol. Hence, the term “Prayer Plant”. I replaced it with a Calathea Stella White Fusion” a month or so later that’s a really Beauty and this one for me is the easiest as I now keep her in my bathroom she’s seems very happy there because she gets the added humidity, nice indirect bright light and I leave my tap water airing out over days to feed her. She needs to be re-potted desperately that is supposed to happen today, wish me luck in not killing her in doing so.
@SensationalKoa Here are a few suggestions: Moonflower
Evening primrose
White yarrow
Night phlox
Angel’s trumpet
White lotus
Jasmine They all relate to the moon! Happy planting
@Rockrlee I also follow requested you as well after my initial reply to your suggestion. As I am from the the South Shore, too. Where and how do you keep ALL your plants surviving and thriving out here, I’m such a newbie.
@PlantJedi okay, there are a lot of comments to read, lol. That’s why “Bella” hasn’t made it to her new pot just yet amongst other errands . I’m looking forward to it your thoughts, too. Lol!
@Ms.Persnickety Thanks, Monika!Wow, yes! What a list I have to choose from. Everyone has been so kind to offer their suggestions, it’s fun and I never expected I’d get this big of a response. It’s going to take even more time to fill going through all the replies. I’m hoping that when it comes to my turn to go into the store here I’ll have decided, that may just be a little soon for me to decide that quick.
@PlantJedi there were quite a few that said to put “Bella” in there as well. However, I originally picked it out for her. However, I think she’s outgrown it because it would be tricky to get her out and she’s my ultimate favorite so far, I don’t want to kill her I’ll be smashed to bits if I do, even re-potting her I’m still skeptical because I’m so new at this, and you and I both know she’s overdue. That being said I don’t think you’ll smash toes it’s all in good plant fun to state your ideas . After all, I requested the suggestions and I do like Unique because I am and even odd matches , too.
And OMG! Sunday plant mail! Look what just showed up, my Pink Princess Philodendron and she isn’t as PINK as I expected yet she’s sprouting a leaf there that looks PINK, her leaves are HUGE. Hopefully she acclimated well to my environment and for sure these leaves are so big to hang her. I’m impressed she looks like a Beauty I hope she adjusts and thrives, way too big for Wandering Saturn 🪐
@SensationalKoa I seem to have been "channeled" here by @JenniB81 but I am glad Jenni channeled me as I have enjoyed your post and the relayed comments. Thanks so much for sharing 😊 😀 ☺️
@JenniB81 So I am being channeled now, am I? 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
I thought I felt a disturbance in the force LOL 😉😉
I may come back to add some memes and puns later, but if not you may seem some more elsewhere. The pot looks like Saturn with its rings, maybe it's in the stars 🌟 🤩 so I go from plant pot to plan-et, get it 😉😉😆 🤣 😂 😹
@Seymour I saw the channeling, it’s about time you made an entrancece into this Universe here today, it was one heck of a ride flying in and out of here today, I never expected the great exploration it took me on of all great suggestions and commentary and the fact that this pot made with plant based (pun-intended or not) it renewable and degradable materials is safe for the planet and the plants not just the style is unique but deserves an A+ for that uniqueness as well, that became an ultimate attraction post today. Thanks for stopping by.
@sensationalkoa 👏👏🥰 great comment! 😂 Xxx
@JenniB81 Thanks, for channeling, I never expected that it would blow up here and that I would receive all the wonderful suggestions I did as I posted the pot when it first arrived and hadn’t asked for suggestions because it was ordered to place my “Bella” in it, she looks to have already outgrown it, lol
@SensationalKoa Hey Madeline, this post was on another planet (I said to Jenni it looks like Saturn 🪐 to me), such a big response. So the universe has spoken!
No surprises that i want one, the Planet named after the goddess of love Venus is calling me! 😍💕
Wow Bella, she's beautiful ❤️
I am so going with the vibe
@PlantJedi Oh My…that Persian shield is gorgeous, I own a Rattlesnaker (Rattles is his name), I’m loving the purple Alocasia Azlanii because that would make the ring pop because the color matches perfectly,and the Rose Calathea is one I have wish listed a while back.along with these in the (5) photos, too.
@PlantJedi and….during the pot glow up yesterday, this arrived and poor “Bella” still hasn’t made it to her new pot yet, oh, boy, bad mamma jamma trying to get this Beauty unboxed and settled to adjust, meet Princess Philomena (Rare-Pink Princess Marble Philodrendron-Erubesens, she’s not that pink though so hopefully this East facing window will bring her more pink color from early morning sun.
I absolutely have a hard decision, thank you everyone for all the wonderful and beautiful suggestions, now I have so many plants to think about all Beauties and more pots, too. Because I see many winners.
@PlantJedi Wow, Miguel! That’s great! I love Sasha, when I get my house eventually I’d love to get this Monstera I need the space for it. Absolutely love it.
@PlantJedi I’m loving your suggestions either way I’m probably going to pick up a couple of those suggestions as well. It is a 6 inch deep pot circumference diameter the opening is only 3.5 so that poses issues to get the plant out safely for plant and pot so any plant will outgrow this and so I’m going to use the suggestions I was given or just slip in a 3inch grower’s pot so can I always change the plant in there, too and just utilize it as a starter pot to just slip it in there. There absolutely has been many great suggestions and I was going to order another one of these pots in another color scheme as well because you’re able to create the color coordination out of the colors available and they are creating more colors and I requested a moon with craters in white or yellow with a star ring, so we shall see if they create that. I’m a Universe enthusiast as well, lol. Good vibes!
@PlantJedi WOW 🤩! Miguel! That is one heck of a beauty I need to get my hands on where did you find that. I love it! So Unique, too. I love unique!
@PlantJedi the nursery where my new Nanouk just came from because they are exceptional and they said they aren’t selling it right now because low sale volume due to what you stated about growing Lille wild wildflower and they did say but it can hang down so I appreciated that response told them to let me know if they will sell it again they said they haulted that version as of now.
@PlantJedi Oh, that is spectacular, loving that, too! I’ve been busy since I came home from work, I had a lot of plant mail today mostly succulents and some cute pots for those ideal for the spot they will reside. Plus, guess who who was re-potted today with the Fox Farms soil, orchid bark, and a bit more perlite since that soil has some already ta-da my “Bella” and “Rattles Tattles” the Calathea Rattlesnake, who is not looking so good he’s getting a bit crunchy on edges and even a brown spot on a new leaf, and just recently too, I don’t know why either, he’s getting burnt from the lamp which I doubt because it would have happened before now, wondering if it’s fungal because we had a lot of cloudy weather here in NY so the spot he’s in his soil doesn’t dry out that quick so he gets watered less and was fine. he’s in indirect bright light if the sun is out yet near a lamp that goes on for maybe 3 hours around 7pm. I’m hoping the re-pot helps him, his roots looked okay and in tact I potted him with the same as Bella and have to keep an extra careful on-look at both for their progression. Whew-though, Finally done.
Oh, they all have one now, each with a different saying, lol! Rattles will have pray for me, my money tree has please don’t die, lol you know the one you helped me with that I now will treat rattles with because he too showed up poor in February with some brown edging was making progress and now seems to have a sign of something Bella lost a newer tiny leaf at the bottom this morning and another leaf turned yellow however that is probably because she was transferred to late otherwise she is looking yeah fine, my favorite yes. Your Stella, is just Stellar, too as is all of your beauty’s.
@SensationalKoa love it even more. ❤️❤️❤️
@RousingSourwood Thank you, I’ll show you my newest to the universe collection.
@PlantJedi today I received plant mail and guess what it was? And guess how it showed up yet is a real tall beauty but came with the same disease that is killing Bella nothing is helping her, so what’s left is going into a new pot if her roots aren’t rotted. Just guess what showed up with signs of Blight and same fungal disease?
@PlantJedi i misplaced your email address. I was working when I jotted it down, I have it somewhere. I didn’t lose it, lose it just misplaced it. I wish I can locate because it is easiest way to reach you otherwise I have to find you in a feed.
@PlantJedi take your number down it’s too late now I’ll text you tomorrow sometime during my workday
@PlantJedi go look at my Oasis I had a following last week about my pots I believe you were in that feed I told them they had to wait for the reveal in my oasis go look. Beware for many laughs I didn’t make a post I did it discreetly in my oasis tell me if you think I should make a post. Lmao
@PlantJedi when I try to post a question even with a # it comes up telling me cannot post whether it’s a question or a post there are glitches on my end when I addressed this I got labeled negative, okay, yet it’s not me and I blame myself anyway because I’m new yet it is more the glitches on my side that haven’t been ironed out just yet for smoothness of operation and user-friendliness above all. So I’ll try to post it and whichever way works that’ll have to be for now. 😃🤞🏻
