Description
Saucer is a shallow plate that sits beneath a plant pot to catch water draining through the soil, protecting the floor underneath.
Four sizes are stocked, 10 inch, 12 inch, 14 inch and 16 inch, with prices from AED 10 to AED 35.
In the UAE a saucer does more than catch spills. Tap water here carries dissolved salts, and as collected runoff evaporates on a warm floor, those salts concentrate and dry into a pale crust on the plate. Emptying the saucer instead of letting it evaporate avoids the mark entirely.
How to use the Saucer
Pick a size wider than the base of your pot, not wider than its rim, so the pot sits stable with room for runoff. Tip out standing water within an hour of watering. Water left sitting keeps the lowest soil permanently wet, which is the most common cause of root rot indoors here, and it gives mosquitoes somewhere to breed.
Where the Saucer works best
Use one under any pot standing on marble, parquet, carpet edges or painted balcony tiles. Outdoors it also stops fine soil washing across paving. Match sizes against the pot and planter collection.
FAQ
Which saucer size should I choose?
Measure the base diameter of the pot and pick the next size up. A 12 inch saucer suits a pot with a base under 12 inches.
Can I leave water sitting in it?
No. Empty it after watering.
Plants Care
Watering:
Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.
Light:
Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.
Temperature:
Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.
Fertilizer:
Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! We ensure that every plant we send out meets two key criteria:
- We carefully inspect each plant for signs of root rot, pests, disease, and unhealthy foliage or stems. If we find any issues, we don’t ship the plant. This meticulous care ensures that every plant is healthy and ready to thrive in its new home.
- We ask ourselves if we’d proudly display the plant in our own homes and if it matches the online photos. If both answers are yes, we ship it. However, if you're not happy with your plant, we offer a hassle-free replacement within 14 days of delivery.
Yes, we strive to match the appearance of the plants shown online. While natural variations in color, shape, and size are to be expected, we do our best to ensure your plant closely resembles its online image.
Your plant will arrive in its nursery pot to ensure safe transportation. We recommend leaving it in this pot for at least 6 to 12 months to acclimate to your home’s environment. For succulents, which acclimate faster, we may replant them before shipping.
Consider the following:
- Light: A bright, indirect light spot offers more plant options than a shady area.
- Time: Some plants need minimal care, while others require more attention.
- Style: Choose plants that match your aesthetic, whether tree-like with large leaves or vining varieties.
