apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I need more room for herbs! I was growing basil and cilantro in the same pot, but they both want to get a lot fuller than they can while they're sharing space. Please give my herbs more room. :-)

what a great product! we just got rid of some gross old whisky barrels left by the previous owner and are looking for new pots for our deck - these would really hit the spot!

How I'd use this "Flokati Rug," eh? Well, that is a funny looking rug! So I guess I'd start by filling it up with dirt and laying down some mesculin seed to make it nice and soft on top!

or maybe I'd add some more tomato plants to my container garden... mmmmmm.

At my work they use a lot of plants for display purposes. When the plants are "no longer needed" they THROW THEM AWAY! Seriously. They put them in the trash. So I always grab them out of the garbage can & take them home. I have lots & lots of rescued plants in my apartment with room for more! I would absolutely love some EcoForm pots!!!

I would like to have some more plants at work. I'm in a building with metal panel walls, horrible cast off furniture and horrible black dust that comes out of the vents. The plants would help. Definitely help. I hear that spider plants are great for air cleaning.

flokati rug?? i'm confused. as for the pots, i would cover my deck with them, filled with any easy-care plant i could get ahold of.

These would look lovely in my patio.

i'd use these pots for my container garden, possibly herbs or lettuces.

they'd be very handy!

We have a great porch that needs plants. The aloe is in a cracked pot and needs a transplant! Love this idea, thank-you.

I'm moving to New Orleans in a few weeks, and the new house has a dirt yard. Help NOLA come back green by giving these fabulous items to me!

PS- I could use a flokati rug as well.

Perfect for my patio. Thank you!

I'd use these POTS in my outside window sills and/or on my porch steps! thanks AT!

Let's see.... I guess I could hang the Flokati rug on the wall outside where I would put these AWESOME pots! My brand garden is still in its infancy stage and if I don't win these I will have to go out and buy some! Pick me AT!

They only last five years... There are clay pots that have been kicking around my family for generations.

And they won't break down in a landfill if they're in a trash bag, which is how most things get to a landfill.

I'm skeptical about the claim that these pots will somehow know to start breaking down when they get to a landfill but not before. But I would use a pot like this to grow plants for my chickens: they need portable plants that can be taken away from them to recover on a regular basis. A pot I don't have to worry about them eating (unlike plastic) or breaking (unlike ceramic or terra cotta) would be a great thing.

Yes, please! Just bought some salvia and impatiens that need a new home.

me please! I need more big pots for growing lettuces on my fire escape and these sound great and lightweight!

hmmm. no Flokati rug here, but I'd use these earth friendly pots on my back porch, with some pretty flowers that I planted with my daughter.

One word: cilantro.

I'd use this to grow some cat grass so my cat would stop eating my plants. Or I'd put a red geranium in it and place it on my balcony.

How would I use a handmade rug made from New Zealand wool? (http://www.flokati-rugs.com/) To warm my toes in the winter, I guess.

But since you're giving away those cool pots....my boyfriend and I just planted our first-ever garden at our first apartment. I'd love to plant some lilies or sunflowers in those pots!

We just moved into a brand new house. We need backyard landscaping, and I have horrible clay soil. These pots would be a great solution!

Love them on my rooftop deck!

this would be perfect for my succulents

fill them with herbs and put them on my back porch!

Herbs in the kitchen window. Yay!

I can always use more pots for herbs

I just started my patio garden!! and i have the sweetest aunt who is making rose cuttings for me- so all i need is those pots to make the perfect rose garden outside my window.
(and the flokati rug to enjoy in the living room while looking out the window?!)

I live in the most abysmal apartment in a most luxurious Old Town Alexandria, VA. I would let something like these pots wake my basil from its slumber and allow my mint to rock my mojitos. I would also just love something from AT. Peace.

A Flokati Rug would be nice...but I think I'd rather have the pots filled with pretty things like marigolds and basil on my window sill!

I'd love the yellow pots as a cheery welcome to my front patio.

I've been eying similar pots at Target recently.

Well, I'd put that flocati rug over my icky rental carpet...haha! I've got a little rose plant that's been thriving, but could use a repot for sure! And then maybe I'll actually start that herb garden, because I've always been reluctant to go pick out new pots!

I'd put the flokati rug on my porch steps and the flower pots between my 2 sofas... no, wait, that's not right.

I am practicing NOT making plants die when they become my property, so I'm starting with chocolate mint plants. Lovely smell. Let's see if they stick around. :-)

I'd love to use these pots along the ledge outside my window!!!

Flokati rug? I must be missing something somewhere. But, I'd love to comment on these pots! I've just recently turned my brown thumb to a green thumb (plants are growing for me finally!) and I was just thinking the other day how I'd love to re-pot some of the plants I have. So, this post came at the perfect time. How I'd love some new pots!

I'd start a succulent garden inside, all the recent posts on AT have inspired me!

There is a spot on my porch just waiting for these pots and some colorful flowers!

Perfect for our patio!

My mother was a very generous and selfless person, even when she had nothing material to give. When I moved out, she gave me a tiny jade plant. Today, almost ten years later, that jade plant is so healthy and robust that I regularly give away potted cuttings to friends and family, just like Mom would have. I'm always looking for more pots for my cuttings.

I would love these for the deck!

one word: Please.

My porch is screaming for some decoration

I'd plant some hot peppers in them!

Hmm, I would put the flokati near my bed so I could step on it in the winter. As for the pots, I'd use them for herbs or for succulents.

One of my big goals for the summer is to grow my own herbs (basil for pesto and for tomato and mozzarella salads), mint, cilantro, etc. I would love to have some pots to put them in (I've heard mint can spread like a weed in a garden and should really be in a pot). If the pots were large enough I'd grow tomatoes (home-grown always taste the best in tomato sandwiches).

I just moved into a place with some outdoor space, I'd love to use these for a little herb garden!

Well, I'm not sure how I'd turn this pot into a flokati rug, but I'd put plants in these pots.

By the way, I'm not really sure how these would biodegrade in a landfill with no oxygen. I'd like to learn more about how they'd decompose in a landfill

My sedum plants are getting a little too big for their current pots and could use new homes.

My Lavender plant really really wants some more space.

I would use them for mint, as mint takes over around here if it's not contained. Peppermint, chocolate mint, lemon mint...oh, possibilities abound!

I'd love to use those for some marshmallow mint and nutmeg thyme I've got my eye on. So pretty!

I'd use these for some cilantro and basil- to go with our 6(!) tomato plants.

I could use some more pots. Some of my plants are screaming to be repotted or divided.

I'd use these to repot things from the ancient cracking pots left by the previous owner that are breaking into pieces every time they are moved.

My spider plant at work has babies that desperately need homes. Won't you give a baby spider plant a home?

I'm just getting started growing and could definitely use some new pots!

I am learning to garden--after 15 years in NYC with no outdoor space to speak of, now I have a yard and patio. These would be great!

I'm continually trying to grow plants on my fire escape. These look ideal for that.

I am trying to get my thumb a little greener by starting small containers. I love the idea of these- less plastic that will be around forever!

I'd plant some flowers on my south facing fire escape.

I would plant some mint to make some lovely summer mojitos.

for the love of any plant that helps shade and shate with a neighbor.

The herbs on my deck are in black pots that came straight from a nursery, so they're functional, but not pretty. I'd love to put them into something a bit lovlier.

I will use them to hold my strange new plants coming in the mail soon from http://www.lithops.net/! I just bought a brown EcoForms pot from Target, but they didn't have any black - much classier!

I would use them for our container garden!

I have a backyard in Brooklyn. Help me green it with these nifty pots! :D

I would use these in my back yard dining area

well i just moved into my first house this week and have no plants or pots so if i won these i would get right to sprucing up the yard! i love the look of potted plants on the back deck.

I would plant bright flowers, like zinnias and moss roses, that would compliment the dark pots and place them on my steps!!!

i'd use for herbs in my kitchen

I'd plant some more varieties of herbs- never enough for me!

I'm going to plant the Flokati in those pots... and hopefully grow some herbs.

I'll put it on my patio

I would use them to branch out into gardening, livening up my small, small patio. :-)

this would be great to get my garden started!

Just ordered 2 planters from CB2. These would definitely complete my patio.

Save my plants. Save the planet.

i have one ugly planter right now and this one would look really nice in my kitchen window.

We just moved into a new house, and the back yard is still sand and straw. I would LOVE to turn it into a beautiful container garden, and these pots would start me off right. I'm planning a kitchen pot full of herbs, and I'd love to have succulents as well.

I've been thinking about where to transplant my egg-crate started parsley, basil, cilantro and oregano. This is perfect.

I redecorated my apartment patio with a rug, new chairs and some lovely flowers. Now I really need these pots for my herb garden. I love having fresh herbs for my kitchen. These pots will work well on my patio.

I just bought some succulents AND got several random cuttings...these pots would be perfect.

i live in a tiny apartment and my mom wants to start a small outdoor vegetable garden (everything potted - we don't know the condition of the soil) so this would be a great gift for her.

I am a total greenie and bought some basil that needs a new home

I'd use these pots to grow more baby greens and expand the basil collection (we're pesto freaks).

Uh, flokati rug??? I keep buying more pots as my garden expands, so these would go to very good use.

These green pots look fantastic! Our family has been steadily working on becoming more eco-consciours! I would put lovely flowers in these pots and set them on our front porch. Please enter me in your marvelous drawing. I appreciate it! Thanks, Cindi

We need to keep some cilantro by the front door! (it's too hot in the veggie garden and the cilantro keeps going to seed; by the front door it will have nice indirect light for the summer).

i would love these pots, how responsible to use biodegradable pots

I will use these pots to expand my indoor herb garden.

i was just looking for some pots for my daughter's flower seeds and it would be great to have some that are green.

One can never have enough pots, just don't tell my husband

I've got some outdoor ivy that I want to repot as a houseplant, and my chives need to be divided. Plus, I'm moving and have all kinds of spaces I'd like to fill with plants. I'll take all the pots I can get!

I would place these pots on my front porch after I plant
lavendar in them.Thanks for the giveaway

I want to start some plants for my ugly, bare yard and also get a mini herb garden going.
