Curiosities about terracotta
Italian terracotta pots
Frost resistant
Corsiani kiln terracotta is guaranteed frost-resistant down to -35°, thanks to Impruneta clay rich in minerals such as quartz and iron, which make it extremely resistant to weathering. Our terracotta also has the property of creating a kind of insulation from the cold and at the same time allows the roots of the plant to transpire.
In winter periods, care should be taken so that terracotta pots do not fill with water, as it may freeze and create pressure on the pot. For this reason, it is necessary to make one or more holes in the bottom.
Benefits for your plants
The terracotta pot offers many advantages over those made of plastic or other materials. The porosity of terracotta allows the roots to transpire. It is easy to recognize if a plant located in an earthenware container has been overwatered, as the walls will be damp. For flawless drainage, it is also advisable to purchase feet to put under the pots so that water will drain out of the holes without any problems.
Terracotta is a material that keeps the earth cooler in summer and is a good insulator from the cold in winter. Regarding the well-being and growth of plants such as lemons or oranges, we recommend the choice of Conche, straight or flared as needed. The size of these pots will naturally depend on the age of the plant. For plants such as laurel, ivy and other hedge species, rectangular or square boxes are functional, inside which the plant will grow undisturbed by external agents.
