Called TEKU 17 but these clear nursery pots actually measure 16.5cm wide across the top, are 14.5cms tall, and are 11.6cm wide across the base. The inside measurement across the top is 15cms wide as the new design TEKU have a wider lip for easier removal from cover pots for watering. These are the new design TEKU pots with even better drainage than the Original. Check out the photo of the base on this one!  

But wait, there's more...

TEKU pots are like Transformers: More than meets the eye. At first glance you see an extra-clear pot for your indoor plants. You can use them by themselves, or pop them in a cover pot, making them suitable for all plants. You can play I Spy and keep a watch on those roots and substrate moisture levels. Job done. But there's more. What you don't see until you turn it over is the clever base design.

Elho or TEKU or Rain?

Elho's Orchid Pots are thicker, sturdier, UV safe for outdoor and indoor use including in direct sun, and made of recycled plastic. They have a rounded base, same as Teku do, to reduce sharp pot edges scratching surfaces. However Elho are not completely clear like the Teku or Rain.

Rain are almost completely clear like Teku are, both being better for monitoring of even delicate, finer roots and of the moisture level, but Rain are thinner and not quite as sturdy as Teku or Elho. They don't have rounded edges like the Elho and Teku do. Rain also have vertical ridged lines running the height of the pot around all sides.

But what really sets Teku apart is the drainage. With root rot a concern all house plant hobbyists share, drainage is a key factor that reduces the risk of root rot. by helping get rid of that dreaded perched water table, while increasing vital oxygen for roots.

What cover pots do these fit?

The TEKU 15 fits all 16cm Elho cover pots, including Elho Brussels, Elho B.For Soft, and Elho Vibes which come in lots of colour options. Depending on how high you want the plant to sit in the cover pot, you may need a handful of pebbles below the nursery pot inside the cover pot to lift it up.

All about that base

TEKU pots have unique asymmetrical drainage channels which increases drainage and also makes them more stable on mesh and wire surfaces. They have these neat 'U' shaped slots you can push plant stakes in to for better stability to support your plant. But what really sets TEKU apart is drainage.

The placement and number of drainage holes provides faster, better drainage for happier roots and to help avoid root rot. It gets water out of your substrate much faster.

Plus the clever raised internal drainage help prevent roots sitting in residual water that collects at the bottom to avoid a perched water table. No wet feet! Both the tall drainage slots and domed drainage holes help increase aeration, reducing the risk of root rot.

The new design TEKU pots now have rounded edges to reduce the risk of scratching your nice plant shelves, and a new non-slip pattern on the base to help avoid slipping and sliding.
