# What can actually survive \& thrive in this lil 10' Spring Iron Prism…

_Posted by Jeni Lyn on 2024-11-21_

What can actually survive \& thrive in this lil 10' Spring Iron Prism Planter? Since I have started using Planta, it seems many plants need drainage. I purchased it years ago with growing herbs on my window sill in mind. Any ideas would be graciously appreciated. Thanks!🌵🪴🌻🌲🌴🍁

If you want you can do succulents you’ll just need to be very aware of the watering situation. I keep most of my cacti and echeveria in pots with no drainage

Bog plants!!! I have succulents, cactus, and some philodendron in none drainage planters. Like kades said, you just gotta make sure you check they're drying out properly

Some of my plants have no drainage holes in their pots, I use a moisture meter, it's brilliant! Amazon for around a tenner, just dip it in the soil and it's tells you if it's dry, moist or wet 😁
