About Our Plantable Pots
We’re excited! Our plants are grown in 3.5” square x 4”deep 100% biodegradable pots that can be planted directly in the ground. Made from coconut fibers, these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic. Just snip off the Bluestone band and plant the pot—they are ready to grow!
Plastic vs. Plantable
Since switching to plantable pots over 10 years ago, we’ve seen numerous advantages to growing in biodegradable pots instead of plastic! The exceptional permeability to water, air and plant roots allows our plants to quickly grow a robust root system. In traditional plastic pots, plants will tend to become root-bound with a tightly interwoven root mass at the bottom of the container. When grown in our plantable fiber pot, the same plant grows healthy roots throughout the entire pot which air prune as they exit the pot. In addition:
- You plant the pot directly into the ground causing little to no transplant shock.
- Made from a renewable resource requiring very little energy.
- 100% biodegradable. Naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time. No composting required.
- Ships in our custom packaging system that protect plants during transit and has completely eliminated the use of styrofoam peanuts in our shipping.
