What flowerpot looks good with the fairy finger?

When planting fairy fingers, you should use a flower pot with better air permeability. You can choose a clay flower pot. The size of the flower pot should also be considered. The specific size of the flower pot should be selected according to the size of the plant. In terms of color, the color should not be too rich, and a single color is best.

When placing the cactus finger in a flowerpot, you must be careful to manage it well during its growth period. It should not be exposed to the sun, but should be exposed to more sunlight. It should not be exposed to rain when it rains, as rain will cause the branches to fall off, greatly affecting its ornamental value.

Selection of flower pots for cactus fingers

You can use a medium-sized flowerpot for the fairy finger. If the flowerpot you use has been used to plant other plants, you must disinfect it before use to avoid the presence of pathogens that may harm the plant's roots.

It is better to use a small pot for growing cactus for two or three years, and then change the pot after the flowering period is over. Prepare a suitable pot and soil before changing the pot. The pot should be slightly larger. Then observe its growth. If it grows a little bigger, change to a deeper pot.
