How to make a multi-plant pot?
Unlike our natural ecosystems, our house plants are usually a single species in each pot; whilst this is great to maximise the growth of these plants, it does reduce the biodiversity within your home environment. The idea of a multi-plant pot is to create a biodiverse plant pot, with varieties of different species growing together. This plant pots can be any size, but to feature a larger range, the pot needs to be bigger.
Finding complimenting plants to put with your feature is important. I find that succulents go well with other succulents, grasses go well with ferns, and smaller flowering plants go with larger ones. If you have a large feature plant, such as a Monstera Deliciosa, you will want it to have its own pot. However, if it is something like a succulent, eg. Crassula, you may want to pair it with another succulent.
