Cymbidium Orchid Pot 7 L
A tall black cultivation pot for mature Cymbidium orchids and their extensive root systems.
- Tall profile
- 7 L
- Ø 22 × H 25 cm
- Base drainage
The Cymbidium Orchid Pot 7 L gives a mature Cymbidium what it needs most: genuine depth for its dense root system without burying the plant base. The tall tapered Ø 22 × H 25 cm body provides a stable fit, while the drainage base lets water leave after watering. It is a clear, functional choice when roots have outgrown a shallower pot and need room downwards.

Depth for the roots without burying the plant base
Cymbidium orchids build dense, vigorous root systems. The tall profile gives roots vertical room while the plant sits high enough for the pseudobulb bases to remain above the mix.
- The 7 L capacity and Ø 22 × H 25 cm dimensions suit a mature plant that genuinely needs a deep pot.
- The raised drainage base lets water leave the pot after each watering.
- Place the oldest pseudobulbs near the rim and leave room in the direction of new growth.
A deeper pot does not mean more retained water. Use an airy orchid mix and let the pot drain fully. Do not leave it standing permanently in water.
Free drainage
The base releases water when the pot is watered and allowed to drain without a standing reservoir.
Room for new growth
The plant can sit off-centre so new pseudobulbs have space to develop.
FitWhen the 7 L size is genuinely suitableCheck roots, stability and the direction of new growth.
Choose depth for the roots, not unnecessary volume
The right pot accepts the existing root system and leaves controlled space for new growth without a large volume of mix that dries slowly.
The roots need the 25 cm depth without being forced into tight folds.
Large foliage does not automatically mean the orchid needs a larger pot.
Leave open space in the direction where new growth is emerging.
RepottingPosition a Cymbidium with room for new growthFour clear steps for stable roots and the correct planting height.
Repot in the correct direction
The best time is generally after flowering as new roots begin, or when the mix has broken down and no longer stays airy.
Check roots and mix
Remove broken-down material and trim only dead or soft roots with a clean tool.
Test the position before filling
Place the oldest pseudobulbs near the rim and leave space in front of new growth.
Keep the plant base high
Pseudobulb bases and the crown stay above the final surface of the mix.
Fill without over-compacting
Add a coarse, airy mix around the roots and stabilise the plant without closing the air spaces.
After watering, let the pot drain fully
Do not leave the base in permanent standing water. Watering frequency depends on temperature, airflow, mix and active growth.

Short answers about size, repotting, watering and package contents.
01Why is the Cymbidium pot so tall?
Mature Cymbidium orchids form dense, extensive root systems. The 25 cm height provides more vertical room without making the diameter unnecessarily wide.
02How do I know whether 7 L is the right size?
Check the actual root system. The pot should accept the roots without severe folding and leave controlled room for new growth, not a large empty volume.
03When should a Cymbidium be repotted?
Generally after flowering as new roots begin, or when the mix has broken down, roots have filled the pot or drainage has slowed.
04How should I position the pseudobulbs?
Place the oldest pseudobulbs near the rim and leave space in the direction of new growth. Keep their bases above the mix.
05Which growing medium should I use?
Use a coarse, airy orchid mix that drains well. Adjust the exact composition to climate, airflow and watering frequency.
06How should I water after repotting?
Water according to root and mix condition and let the pot drain fully each time. Avoid permanent standing water.
07Can it sit inside an outer pot or saucer?
Yes, provided collected water is emptied after watering and the pot base is not left submerged.
08What is included?
One black Cymbidium Orchid Pot 7 L. Plant, growing medium, outer pot and saucer are not included.
