Sustainable, stylish and super-sized: the new XXL plant pots by elho

Embargo 1st January 2024

The trend of having luscious potted trees and extra-large houseplants is set to soar in 2024, with more people opting for big, bold, and beautiful statement foliage to fill their homes and gardens. From oversized exotic houseplants like the palm plant, bird of paradise or monstera deliciosa, to bamboo plants, hibiscus and acer trees, the bigger the better is the mantra for the year ahead.

While some might wonder how to squeeze such supersized plants into a suitable pot, the sustainable plant pot innovator, elho, has the perfect solution, with two new large-capacity plant pots added to its extensive collection.

The greenville XXL and vibia XXL offer nature lovers the chance to bring big, beautiful plants into their space, whether it’s indoors or outside, while providing plenty of space for them to thrive.

greenville XXL

The new greenville XXL boasts a generous 55cm capacity, making it the perfect roomy pot for a number of large plants. Made from 100% recycled plastic, it is durable and lightweight meaning it can be moved around and repositioned with ease. The XXL pot is also UV and frost-resistant, meaning it will remain vibrant all year round.

The greenville XXL also features a built-in water reservoir, so no more worries about over or under-watering. 

Available in modern black or natural leaf green, pair perfectly with russet trees like the Japanese Maple or the elegant Juneberry shrub for elegant bursts of white flowers in the garden. For houseplant enthusiasts, finding a pot large enough for mature plants like eucalyptus or fiddle leaf fig tree can be a challenging task, but the greenville XXL can be placed indoors using the matching saucer to collect drained water, keeping your plant happy and hydrated, and floors dry!

vibia XXL

Available in two trendy colours - terra and anthracite - the new XXL pot in elho's vibia collection is perfect for adding a Mediterranean touch to the garden. The large-capacity pot is 65cm, making it an ideal size for zesty citrus plants or exotic olive trees to bring a touch of Italy to your space.

For thirstier plants, place the coordinating vibia saucer underneath the pot to collect and hold the drained water. This will ensure the tree has plenty of moisture to stay hydrated and healthy.

Thanks to its lightweight yet durable material, and UV and frost-resistant properties, the pot will stay strong, bright, and radiant for many years to come.

Big is best!

Whether you're adding a tropical tree, leafy shrub, or glossy houseplant to your growing collection, remember to always water large pots deeply to encourage its root system to develop as they search for water in the soil.

To accentuate your plants further, try positioning two pots on either side of the front door for a statement welcome or place supersize houseplants next to a mirror to emphasise its luscious leaves and greenery. However you style them, the XXL pots by elho offer a bold and trendy addition to the home and garden.

As with all elho products, both XXL pots are made from 100% recycled materials, produced with wind energy and are also 100% recyclable.
