1、 Basin selection

There are many pots made of materials on the market. When you choose a basin for desert roses, the merchant will introduce you to the basin with the highest profit. This kind of basin is not necessarily suitable for the growth of desert roses. When selecting pots, we should select pots according to the habits of plants. As mentioned above, desert rose has fragile roots and is drought resistant. Its roots must not be soaked in water. Once soaked, they will rot and are difficult to deal with

So choose a basin with good air permeability and drainage performance. The size of the basin should be determined according to the volume of desert rose. Generally, the volume of the basin is twice that of the plant. First, the root system of desert rose can have space to grow in the basin. Second, it is to leave enough space for the plant to grow in the next year, so as to avoid the small basin and affecting the plant health

2、 Homemade Basin

In addition to buying pots, you can also use local materials to make your own breeding pots of desert roses. Firstly, select the container whose volume is twice that of desert rose, the best of which is clay, and then drill several holes at the bottom of the container to prevent excessive watering from causing ponding at the bottom of the basin. Then bury a finger thick cotton thread in the basin soil, and the length should extend out of the bottom. The purpose is also to drain the excess water out of the basin and avoid ponding and rotten roots
