Give your succulents a facelift with these quirky plant pots

Whether you’re decorating your cubicle at the office or your bedside table, a potted plant is a fun and relatively low-maintenance way of sprucing up your space. You’re not just limited to choosing between a cactus or a less thorny succulent, however; the pot or container your flora sits on adds just as much of a design element, if not more.

Perhaps you’ve grown tired of the cheap plastic containers, clay pots, and tea cups that most plants come in and are looking for a nicer vessel to place them in. Here are some local shops and sellers that offer unique and quirky pots for your flora.
