Minute Small Ceramic Pot with Drainage Hole and Saucer — Green Blue
Years ago, we designed 4 lines of pots, in 8 different colors. They were just okay, so we never ran them. One day, we had an idea - we grabbed the best two pieces from each line and placed them together. We loved the vibe. And that’s why we call it 'minute', that's how long it took to produce the best line we've ever made.

- Dishwasher-safe. Can also be hand-washed with warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
- The glaze is dipped and kiln-fired — it is sealed, durable, and not looking for trouble. No special cleaning products required.
- For pots with saucers empty the saucer periodically. Standing water in the saucer defeats the purpose of having a drainage hole, which is a thing we feel strongly about.
- Not frost-safe. Designed for indoor use. A covered outdoor shelf in temperate weather is fine. Freezing temperatures are not.
- Handle by the body of the pot, not the rim, when moving with a plant inside.

The Ultimate Repotting Guide
For those who have killed a plant. Or several. Or, frankly, many.
Before you put a plant into the Minute, you have to get it out of the nursery pot — a process that ends badly more often than any gardening influencer will admit. We wrote a full guide: when to repot (early spring, and not when you're feeling impulsive in October), which soil to use, how to tell your plant is root-bound, and how to avoid the three mistakes that kill perfectly healthy plants within a week of a well-intentioned repotting.
It is the guide we wish someone had handed us twenty-five years ago. It is written by people who have personally committed most of the errors in it.
Chosen by the New York Botanical Garden and Others Who Knew What They Were Looking At
Every Chive pot starts as a sketch that gets argued about at considerable length. We have been doing this for twenty-five years. We are, it turns out, constitutionally incapable of making something we don't mean.
We've never fully understood why botanical gardens keep choosing our pots, except that people who run botanical gardens have spent their careers watching things grow at whatever pace they grow, and have developed, as a result, a very low tolerance for objects pretending to be something they're not. A Chive pot is what it is. The botanical gardens figured this out before most people did, which is either a compliment to them or an indictment of everyone else. We're not going to decide.
