I bought some really nice rather shallow terracotta pots with drainage and saucers off of amazon. What types of plants do well in terracotta? I know succulents do well in terracotta. I believe Calathea and ferns should not be in terracotta? I was thinking maybe my peperomia would do well in terracotta pots? What about palm plants?

In my opinion i believe most plants can go in terra cotta you just need to watch the watering for the plant.

In my opinion, all plants do well in terra. Cana and I try to have most of my plants in them because they breathe nicely. However, if they’re shallow, I would say most things that are closer to a succulent…

I moved my rattlesnake plant to terracotta yesterday because it just wasn’t drying out and then getting fungal gnats. I hope it will be OK in its new pot.

I’m sure it’ll be happy 🙃
