Pots suitable for Catts.
OK, so far my catts in the small pots are doing fine, but as they grow, they will need bigger pots, and therein lies a problem.
The pots I use here are really good, as they are much closer to cylindrical than most, and aren't too tall, so there is less tipping problems, both with orchids and other plants.
My problem is that even tho they are shallower, with increasing diameter comes increasing depth, and with depth comes an increased risk of root rot. I love the teak baskets, except for the problem when it comes to repotting, of roots breaking.
Ideally, I would like to find a nice stable plastic pot with diameters of 20 to 30 cm, but which only have a depth of 10 cm or so so that the medium will dry out quickly and not hold too much moisture.
I'm in the UK, so a European source would be best, but failing all else, I'll ship them in from the US if I have to.
So, anyone with any ideas please?
