Product Details
Made in Italy
Pot feet are essential for proper drainage in any pot placed outdoors, allowing excess water to escape through the hole at the base. Elevating the pot also helps protect plant roots from insects. Our pot feet are thoughtfully designed to complement all our large outdoor pot collections.
Bergs Potter, a Danish company established in 1942, creates handcrafted terracotta plant pots in Tuscany, Italy, using premium Italian clay and high-temperature firing to ensure durability and optimal plant health through natural porosity and aeration.
CARE
Bergs Pottery terracotta pots are designed to be frost-resistant due to their high-quality materials and firing process.
They are handmade in Italy from premium Tuscan clay, which is fired at extremely high temperatures to create a dense, durable material.
However, their frost-proof nature depends on proper care and conditions. To ensure your Bergs pot lasts through the winter, you must take proper precautions against water freezing inside it.
Key care instructions for frost protection
- Ensure proper drainage: Do not let the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot become clogged. If water accumulates and freezes, the expansion can cause the pot to crack.
- Elevate your pot: Use pot feet, small rocks, or wooden blocks to raise the pot at least 2 cm off the ground. This allows excess water to drain away before it freezes.
- Remove saucers: Take off the saucer during the winter months so that water doesn't pool and freeze underneath the pot.
- Insulate larger pots: In areas with extreme cold, consider adding an insulating layer of bubble wrap, fleece, or burlap around larger pots for extra protection.
By following these winter care tips, you can help your Bergs pot withstand cold temperatures for many years.
