Iris Ohyama lightweight plant pot, 18 cm diameter, drainage holes with tray, UV-resistant polypropylene, 0.3 kg, stackable for transport, available in terracotta, white, charcoal colorways.

B+Best for Small Apartments

Iris Ohyama's lightweight plant pot is the practical choice for small-apartment balcony gardening. The 300-gram empty weight per 18 cm pot is critical for balcony gardeners in apartments where building specifications often limit total balcony load to 180 kg/mยฒ โ€” four large plants in heavy ceramic pots can approach the limit quickly. UV-resistant polypropylene survives hot summers without cracking or fading, the drainage tray fits the pot footprint exactly, and the stackable design makes off-season storage manageable in a small apartment utility space. The aesthetic is utilitarian but adequate โ€” the terracotta, white, and charcoal colorways read as intentional rather than purely functional.

Pros

  • 300 g empty weight โ€” practical for weight-limited apartment balconies
  • UV-resistant polypropylene survives hot summer temperatures
  • Included drainage tray fits the pot footprint exactly
  • Stackable for off-season storage in a small apartment utility space

Cons

  • Aesthetic is utilitarian โ€” not a display-quality decorative pot
  • Smaller size range than Western competitors (18 cm is the main offering)
