These little owls are sure to be a hoot, whether they’re on your desk at work or your window at home, these are amongst the cutest cactus pots for sale on Amazon.

We love the pale bamboo stand, and the fact that these come with their own little drainage hole, which helped them make their way onto our list of the best cacti pots for sale, though the stand doesn’t leave any room to hold what comes out of the bottom, so be careful whilst watering. This would make a lovely gift, but beware the messy Styrofoam it arrives packed in which must be taken apart in order to verify that nothing is broken or damaged. Undoubtedly one of the best pots for cacti on Amazon.

It’s often difficult to find a shallow, attractive bowl for potting mini cacti or succulents, and this is one of the better looking ceramic ones out there, which is why it found its way onto our best cactus list!

It’s ideal if you’ve opted for a natural look, as opposed to a more ‘artificial’ one! Your cacti will be right at home in this rustic planter, whether they’re potted indoors on your coffee table for all to admire or sitting pretty on your patio.

This comes with a drainage hole, but no tray or net to collect any dirt or water, so be sure to set them in your sink when it’s time for a watering.  It might not suck up as much water as your average terracotta pot after watering, but neither are your average terracotta pots so pretty.

This terrarium is perfect for that symmetrical, minimalist look and we love that it’s open faced, making it ideal for cacti for which terrariums ordinarily spell a slow and prolonged death.

That alone was enough to earn it a spot on this best cactus pots list! Cacti and succulents, even mini cacti and succulents, shouldn’t be housed in terrariums because they’re closed environments that get too moist, and because succulents and cacti love bright light, glass terrariums just act as solar ovens. Your cacti + this terrarium are match made in heaven. Its reviews are proof that it’s one of the best pots for cacti on Amazon!

Thanks to the fiberglass construction it has the same glossy finish, durability, and light weight of a modern car bumper or body panel. My ikea pots just can’t compare.

So make your own best cacti pots for sale list, or have a look at our selection of the best potting soil for indoor plants. I know I’ll see it there.

Drawbacks:

It did come up a bit short, literally, which was a problem seeing as I wanted a large, tall cacti pot for my large cacti. But I still love it, and it’s still on my best cacti pots list, so make of that what you will.

I’ll be honest, these earned an immediate spot on my best cacti pots for sale list as soon as I read ‘llama’.

Everyone could use a little bit of whimsy in their lives, and this pair of Llama and goat planters is nothing if not whimsical. They’re unglazed, so your cacti get plenty of air and come with little nets for their drainage holes for no mess watering.

These make perfect gifts for the plant person in your life, but they’re so cute, you’ll want a pair yourself. They’re handmade, so no two sets are exactly alike! You’ll be hard pressed to find a better accent piece, just like I was hard pressed not to put these on my best pots for cacti list.

This is an elegant indoor planter, well suited to your smaller, tiny cacti and well suited to its place on my best pots for cacti list.

It’s subdued and calming, with a durable glaze and a beautiful finish and I love shallow bowl-style pots capable of accommodating multiple succulents and cacti at once. It’d be the perfect final touch for any soothing space that just needs a little more TLC.

There’s a water dish for drainage, but it isn’t attached and the saucer and pot are both quite slippery so using some museum wax or other putty to hold it is a good idea. Onto the next pot(s) in my best cacti pots for sale index!

Why pick this?

The price is the main selling point of these pretty ceramic planters, and why they made their way onto my best pots for cacti list. They’re starkly white and tres austere, assuming you’re into that.

Drawbacks:

However, you have to be mindful that at $25 dollars for 3, the quality is a little lacking and they’re hollow and not too stable. The drainage plate is attached to the bottom, so it’s one large piece, which makes them great if you prefer a more traditional drainage setup. All in all, they’re somewhere near the end of my list, and there are better options out there when you’re looking for the best pots for cactus.

Why pick this?

These are absolutely tiny, perfect for your bookshelf or desk! And perfect for my best pots for cacti list. I love how cute these are, and what a great gift they make. They’re simple and sleek, and are sure to fit right into any space.

Drawbacks:

They’re so lightweight, they’ll shatter at the slightest provocation. And no drainage hole, which is a big drawback but you can hold them over the sink and replace them when you’re done watering.
