Does the pot have good drainage? Does it need a saucer? I haven't been able to find matching saucers.

I have a pot inside this pot so I don't know about drainage. It does have an insert to work for drainage and does not need a saucer.

The ones I have do not have drainage but have indicated areas where you could punch out holes for drainage.

Most pots have holes in the bottom and require a saucer underneath to capture water runoff...this type has no holes, but has an inner chamber that stores the excess water for later absorption. :)

The soil is heavier than potting soil so it is not optimal for pots and planters. Seeds may grow but there may be issues with drainage. Also pots are hard to move with heavy soil in them. I am using it in the garden; I re-ordered potting soil for the planters.

I don't know about that, Gary- I will say that this pot started to leak at the bottom after a few months of use. I tried getting in touch with the company about this and have had no luck. Hmmm. You'd think that a pot like this would be watertight- no trauma to it, just use. I'd find a different one.

If the bottom of the pot is flat, then normal pot with full amount of water isn't a problem to its surface. Just ensure you don't put a single tiny point onto the top particularly the center.

The pot is large enough and holds enough soil that we do not use a saucer. It has a 12 foot lemon tree in it and it does very well.

Yes, the pot hasd a hole for the Hose. It is very good since it has a lid to keep leaves and other trash out of it.

We have had zero problems with it concerning drainage. Just remember that it does not come with anything to stake it down...we used hangers, which is holding up really well. Good luck! We think it's a really great product, and much cheaper in price than if you were to buy it at Home Depot.

I haven't had any problems with drainage. I just installed and tilted it slightly for drainage

Sorry Ross the answer is NO. You would only be able to fit a pot that was 19inch in diameter inside the saucer. Does this help you?

When I drain the water, the lid is not on, I use a colander which I place in the sink. Not one problem. This is my favorite pot. Have given a few as gifts. Make soup, chili & lots of other stuff in.

It should have drainage holes. If not you can make some by holding it bottom towards a friend with a 45 S&W; and have him take a few well placed shots. ( be careful not to stand behind pot). It Would also be beneficial to place a few Inch or more sized rocks to cover the bottom 2 inches which will aid with drainage.

these pot look nice but it doesn't take as much dirt as a reg. pot. the deepest part are on the sides where it deeper. I notice that the flowers only grew on the deeper side not in the middle of the pot.Make sure to make the holes on the bottom for the excess water to get out. I'm happy with them and I bought white which you can paint them in different colors next if you like.

It comes with a plastic pot - same one as in the picture. Based on my experience with this plant it is best to buy a clay pot, not a glazed one (you can put a clay pot inside a glazed one for decoration purposes). Buy a small pot first and let it outgrow it before switching to a bigger one. Never overwater the plant - best way is to put water on the saucer and let the plant "drink" as much as it needs to, once or twice a week usually is enough. If there is any leftover water on the saucer just discard it. Hope that helps.

No to both of the above. it is a flat square, so you would place a saucer on it, then your plant pot. It is made of a hard plastic and doesn't absorb moisture.

The base of this saucer measures about 11.25''. I actually own this and used a tape measure for accuracy. In order to determine if your pot will fit you will need to measure the bottom of the pot. Hope this helps.
