I should have ordered a size up as these were a bit smaller than expected. Also the color is way off from the picture shown they are really dark green. I love the concept of watering from the bottom. These will be good for african violets since they need watering from below as to not get water on the leafs. I bought the 12" and they were huge so I thought the 6 would be half the size but the seem way smaller. I am now ordering the 8" and see if that's the right size. Nice pots but wish the colors were more correct. I ordered previously the ones that look purple on here but when I got them they were more brown. So keep in mind these will be darker than pictured.
