Meliflor PROPOT fabric pot — root aeration, 4–30 L

For potted plants, choose the container together with the growing medium and watering routine. TerraLED offers Meliflor PROPOT as a breathable growing pot for indoor or outdoor use. Water drains through the fabric, so protect the surface below with a suitable saucer or tray.

For a plant grown at home, the container should suit its position and your watering routine. Meliflor PROPOT is a flexible growing pot with permeable fabric walls. It is also suitable outdoors, but it does not protect the surface beneath by itself: collect the water that passes through the fabric.

Which size should you choose?

Start with the space reserved for the plant, then compare pot and saucer measurements. A 4 L pot has a 15 × 15 cm base, while the 20 L occupies 26 × 26 cm. Both 11 and 15 L models have a square 23 cm base; the 15 L is simply 3 cm taller.

Potting and cleaning

Place the pot flat and leave room to inspect the plant and empty its saucer. The handles make it easier to hold; support the base when the wet root ball is heavy. After use, remove soil and roots, clean and rinse the fabric. Allow it to dry before the next repotting.

Watering a fabric pot

Check the root ball before watering. Add water slowly, let it drain and empty the saucer. On furniture or near a sensitive floor, also check that the collection tray does not overflow. Avoid leaving the fabric standing permanently in water.

Breathable walls around the root ball

Roots reaching the walls remain close to the surrounding air. When their tips dry on contact with it, they can branch rather than keep circling against a closed wall. This is the principle of air-pruning. A breathable container still requires a growing medium and watering routine suited to the plant species.

Choosing a saucer

Sizing suggestions are based on the stated pot and accessory dimensions. Check the flat internal base of the saucer, rather than its outer rim: it must support the filled pot without squeezing the fabric. These suggestions do not replace that measurement.
