Those are very lovely planters. Is it possible to have a wider lip? Right now, I use similar orchid pots, but my problem is they do not have a lip so I end up double potting. I put my orchids on a pole so I need a pot with a lip so it can latch on to the holder.

I agree too with the suggestion of Ken, if you can raise the main pot but still have the foot connected to the saucer, that would be just fabulous! And also on the holes, more holes the better Smiling

This type of pot works for me:

And this is how I double pot right now, just so I can latch it on to the pole: that's just how I grow mine indoors, to maximize use of space.
