When plants are suddenly given legs

Translation: machine translated
In the new flower pots from various brands, green plants are not only rooted. They have recently started to grow legs or smile at you.
Something has been different lately. Scrolling through the flower-pot range, I've noticed designs that have legs, ears or faces. The quirky flower pots seem to be a micro design trend. It turns your plants into likeable figures that set accents in the interior. Especially if you choose a "tongue-in-cheek" model.
Character heads
Plants give these flower pots a hairstyle. For example, if you choose a elephant foot, you can turn your plant pot into the protagonist of the picture book "Struwwelpeter". Or you can opt for a spiky hedgehog hairstyle. Then go for the cactus. Even if you don't have a suitable plant for the character heads, their faces also make them stand out as design objects in their own right.
The big crawl
Flower pots that stand on stilts make plants tall. They elevate your green roommates and bring them a little closer to the sun. Whether they are made of metal, ceramic or wood, they add variety because they break up an arrangement with several planters. Different heights accentuate the individual flower pots, especially if you place them on the floor.
Good listeners
With these designs, it's hard not to have an image of a person in your head. On the one hand, because the plant pots have small ears. On the other hand, because they are called "Alfred" or "Lava". The names sound likeable and turn your plants into silent listeners. At the same time, their little ears are decorative and practical when you carry the flower pots from A to B.
