An air pruning pot is a specialized container designed to enhance plant root health by utilizing a natural process called air pruning.
Exposure to air dries out the root tips, halting their growth (pruning).
This triggers the plant to produce new lateral roots instead of circling or becoming root-bound.
Benefits:
Healthier Root System: Promotes a dense, fibrous network of roots, improving nutrient and water uptake.
Prevents Root Binding: Eliminates tangled, circling roots common in traditional pots.
Enhanced Growth: Stronger roots support healthier foliage, flowers, and fruit.
Better Drainage/Aeration: Reduces risk of overwatering and root rot.
