slate cachepot

A cachepot holds your plant's nursery pot and protects the windowsill and furniture from water. We offer it in three shapes. The CUBI cubes from 11 to 31 cm suit cacti, herbs and green plants. The conical STILO cachepots are available from 11 cm up to the 58 cm tall STILO 31. The slim JARDI boxes with 21 and 28 cm length hold several small plants side by side; for longer boxes on the balcony, there are the flower boxes. Each piece is made of genuine slate with naturally broken edges and is therefore one of a kind. All shapes are available in anthracite and in warm Rusty brown.

Orchids sit in a narrow nursery pot and need room to grow upward. For this there is the PYLO as an orchid cachepot in 12 and 14 cm width and up to 29 cm height. The slate looks calm next to the blooms and gives the pot weight. If you prefer to arrange a row, choose the orchid cachepots in two heights and mix anthracite with Rusty. For large houseplants with a wide root ball, the conical STILO is the better choice. As a moving-in gift a cachepot holds the first houseplant in the new home.

Measure the diameter of the nursery pot and add about two centimeters of wall thickness to the outer dimension. With the JARDI 21, for example, it is 21 cm outside and 19 cm inside. The small cubes from 11 to 17 cm are intended for cacti, succulents and herbs. For a large cachepot up to 29 cm outer width, choose the CUBI 31 or the STILO 31, which with a 14 kg and 58 cm height also carries tall plants securely. If your plant is even larger, you will find in the planters containers up to 80 cm.

The cachepots are waterproof and therefore built for indoor use. If you want to use them outdoors, drill one or more holes in the base with a normal stone drill bit; a hammer drill or percussion drill could break the stone slab. It is best to put the pot in a rain-protected spot, for example on a covered balcony. In winter, keep it dry so that freezing water does not burst the stone. For permanent outdoor use, the plant bowls and planter columns with a hole in the base are suitable. You will find an overview of all shapes under plant containers.

A cachepot is in view every day and carries the weight of soil and water. That is why we use slate, a natural stone that is several hundred million years old and extremely robust. Our cachepots are waterproof, have non-slip feet that protect furniture, and are handcrafted, so every piece has its own grain. CLIMAQUA delivers from Germany or Switzerland.
