We highly recommend this if your temperature are either VERY HOT or VERY COLD. Eco-Pots Eco-pots are composed of 85% rice hulls and natural binding agents (starch-based, water-soluble binders and biodegradable additives). There is no heavy metal, benzene or any other toxic ingredient involved during the production of these pots. Formed by the hot press method, these pots will last anywhere from 3 to 5 years depending on usage. There is no industrial pollution generated during manufacturing and there is no waste as all scraps are re-used. Eco-pots will biodegrade and can be composted back into the earth. The rice hulls along with organic, environmentally friendly pigments give these pots a very natural texture, look and feel. Our custom made eco-pots are economical and earth friendly with a classic look!

3 Inside each eco-pot there are 4 nibs, one in each corner that will insert into 4 round holes in the bottom of our grower pot. When placed in correctly the grower pot will lock into the eco-pot & stabilize the plant. Eco-pots are available in avocado green, dark brown, mustard gold, and Paprika red ****May Mixed Box Specials****** ----All mixes include the box, & FedEx Charges----- We will guarantee a great mix of what is looking the best at the farm in these landed mixed boxes.
