Black Fabric Smart Pot Planter (set of 3)

A fabric pot promotes healthy roots and healthy plants. These pots are light weight, durable, and easy to care for.

The fabric material is soft to the touch, but it maintains its shape very well. If the soil dries out or cracks, the stretchable material will contract with it and protect the roots from exposure to insects or sunlight.

A fabric planter breathes very well, which allows fresh air to reach the roots and excess moisture to drain away. If you're starting out with a plant cultivar you've never grown before, this feature can help prevent overwatering. The flow of fresh air to the roots also prevents soil pathogens and mold from getting established.

As moisture evaporates from the cloth pot, it will help cool down the roots of your plant. This is very useful for plants that are sensitive to summer heat. Due to the air cooling effect, an aerating pot can grow plants beyond their normal growing zones.

Unlike clay or plastic pots, this pot will conform to the shape of the ground. As it sags to hug the ground, the cloth pot helps equalize soil temperature with the ground temperature, and avoids some of the common problems with heat stress that kill off potted plants.

For young plants that you plan to sprout in a pot and then plant in your garden, it's important that the seedlings develop strong root systems. This fabric pot helps plants grow fibrous roots without as much circling as other planters. These healthy roots will be better prepared for transplantation.

When roots reach the edge of the porous pot, they either air prune or penetrate through the fabric and into the soil. Air pruning is a natural reaction to finding air instead of soil - it causes root systems to branch out and develop more extensively. Air contact fools the plant into thinking it's growing on the side of a cliff, and it holds on for dear life.

These pots give container gardening a new meaning. Fill your fabric smart pot like you would a regular terra cotta or plastic pot and see what a difference this aerating fabric pot makes!

Each order comes with a set of THREE containers

Choose from either the 5 gallon container or the 30 gallon container for larger or multiple plants.

These fabric planting containers also work well as liners for larger, decorative pots or transporting plants. Fill the bottom of the larger container with some soil, then insert the fabric planter with the plant.

This easy to use planter is a great way to help your plant roots to get the most out of a planter and release heat, keeping your plants the correct temperature for root development.

This planter is also great for aquatic plants!
