Growing violets at home is not an easy task.

It is important not only to remember about care, but also about choosing the right pot.

If the pot is chosen incorrectly, it can cause illness or even death of the plant.

Ceramic pots are popular. However, you should not give preference to such a vase when growing violets.

There are several reasons for this.

The thing is that the material cools down quickly, which means that water is absorbed worse when watering, which has a negative effect on the roots of the plant. In addition, salts from the water remain on the walls, which ultimately also has a negative effect on the condition of the flower.

But what kind of pot is best for a violet?

As experts note, the flower will feel best in a plastic pot.

It is very important to choose the right size pot for the Saintpaulia. Do not choose one that is too high or too wide.
