1、 Basin selection

The flowerpot used for planting iron trees must have good air permeability, which is a very important point. Don't blindly ignore the air permeability of the flowerpot for the sake of beauty. You can use ceramic basin, purple sand basin and tile basin. The size of the flowerpot has no specific limit. The size of the flowerpot should be determined according to the size of the iron tree, as long as it is not particularly large or small. Usually, as long as the plant is not particularly large, the diameter of the flowerpot is about 20-30cm

If the air permeability of the flowerpot is not very good, you can also make several air holes at the bottom of the flowerpot, which can also better discharge the accumulated water. At the beginning of planting, the flowerpot used can be smaller. When it grows a little larger, it can be replaced with a larger flowerpot

2、 Precautions

1. The flower pot for planting iron tree should not be too shallow. Too shallow pot is very unfavorable to its root system and will directly affect its normal growth

2. If you use an old flowerpot that has been used before, you should disinfect it before planting, because there may be germs in the flowerpot, so as not to endanger the root system of the iron tree
