So if you choose a plant pot without holes, you'll need to ensure that the plant stays in its plastic nursery pot (also called a grow pot) and place it on a saucer (if space allows), before placing it into your decorative plant pot. Style talk aside, there are practical considerations too: While decorative indoor plant pots help to spruce up our interiors, you'll often find that they come without drainage holes.

Choose colourful or patterned plant pots to inject some personality, or keep it understated with earthy tones (from sage green to soft creamy-whites), which is ideal if you're working towards a theme. The good news, is that from traditional terracotta plant pots to more contemporary designs, there are plenty to complement your interior scheme and space. For wow factor, you just need to choose a plant pot to suit. Potted succulents are perfect for styling on your desk, trailing plants will bring interest to your shelving unit, and our favourite – the much-loved, Instagrammable Swiss cheese plant – will bring drama to your living room corner.
