The large Tika in Orange is a glazed ceramic plant pot with a center drainage hole and a matching saucer, and orange is the color that has never once in its entire existence asked whether it was welcome. It simply arrives, warm and certain, taking up exactly the space it intended to take up, and waits for the room to adjust, which the room always does, because orange at the right shade is impossible to argue with, and this is the right shade.

It is not the orange of a traffic cone or a Halloween decoration or something that needs a holiday to justify itself. Glazed ceramic holds moisture more evenly than raw terracotta. It is the orange that sits on a shelf next to everything else and makes everything else look like it was waiting for something without knowing what. Now it knows. The answer was orange. It always was.

Potting Tips

  1. Repot in the evening.
  2. Wait 1–2 days after watering, then repot.
  3. Buy potting mix. Not backyard dirt.
  4. Move the top layer of soil from the old pot into the new one. It's a little ecosystem.
  5. Never go more than one inch bigger.
  6. Soil line sits an inch below the rim. Leca or small rocks at the bottom for drainage.

Pot Care instructions
  1. Dishwasher-safe. Can also be hand-washed with warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
  2. Glazed pots are dipped and fired in the kiln — they are sealed, durable, and not looking for trouble. No special cleaning products required.
  3. 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.
  4. Not frost-safe. Designed for indoor use and covered outdoor temperate weather use. Freezing temperatures are not recommended.

Orange: The Large Tika Pot That Was Always the Answer

Orange is the colour we have to talk people into. They arrive scared of it. Orange carries a reputation. Traffic cones. Halloween. A certain kind of dated kitchen. People bring that baggage to the shelf. Then they see this orange and pause.

This is not that orange. We pulled it toward warmth and away from alarm. It glows instead of shouts. It reads like terracotta that went to art school. The fear usually melts within a minute of holding one.

What it does to a room is the fun part. A grey space warms up instantly. A dull corner wakes up. One orange pot can carry a whole shelf of neutrals. People do not expect that much from a single pot. Orange overdelivers quietly.

It is, privately, a studio favourite. We do not admit that to every colour. Orange earned it. It is the most fun to photograph. It is the first one visitors mention. We are always a little surprised more people do not choose it.

Green leaves look spectacular against it. Warm pot, cool foliage, instant contrast. The plant looks chosen. The shelf looks intentional. You looked brave. You only picked a pot. We will keep that between us. The warmth was the whole assignment. Orange aced it.


Potting a plant with Chive

  1. It's best to repot your plant in the evening. Trust us, we know.
  2. Repot 1–2 days after watering — keeps the same rhythm going and won't shock it.
  3. Potting soil is not the dirt from your backyard. Go buy good, nutrient-rich soil.
  4. The top layer of soil in your current pot should be the top layer in the new pot too. It's a little ecosystem your plant likes.
  5. Never go more than one inch bigger than your existing pot. "It'll grow into it" is not correct, and you will kill it.
  6. Keep the soil line about an inch below the top of the pot. Add some leca or small rocks to the bottom for better aeration.

The Ultimate Repotting Guide

For those who have killed a plant. Or several. Or, frankly, many.

Before you put a plant into your new pot, 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.

The Tika Family

The Tika comes in three sizes. Three-inch, five-inch, and Large. Orange runs in the eight-inch Large. Same glaze across the family. Same drainage. Same saucer. Orange does not do subtle. The rest of the family balances it. Pick a few colours. The set was built to mix.

Pots With Drainage

Every Chive pot drains. The Large Tika has a real hole and a saucer. Water has to go somewhere. Roots rot when it does not. Orange drains as clean as the rest. Browse the full drainage collection. Loud colour, same sensible engineering underneath it.

Grow Something Bold

Orange does not do subtle. Neither should your plant. Shido Seeds grow fast and grow well. Radishes in two weeks. Herbs and flowers on your schedule. The packets look sharp on a shelf. Plant them, then pot the results in the orange Tika.

Frequently asked questions

The pot is sorted. Now what goes in it?

Shido seeds come vacuum-sealed, non-GMO, and packaged well enough that people keep the packets after the seeds are gone. Which is either a design success or a problem, depending on how you look at it.
