A planter plate (also called a saucer or drip tray) is a simple tool that makes a big difference at home. It sits under your pot and catches extra water so your floors, shelves, and windowsills stay clean. Over 80% of indoor gardeners say a drip tray helped them keep their space neat and tidy.
At Vedicflora, we offer planter plates in many sizes, shapes, and finishes — all at the lowest prices online. Whether you have a tiny cactus pot or a large floor planter, we have the right fit for you.
Why Every Plant Parent Needs a Planter Plate
Drip trays do more than protect your furniture. They also collect water that roots can slowly drink up, which helps in hot summers when pots dry out fast. Your plants stay healthier and your home stays spotless — a simple win for every household.
Our best-selling planter plates come in plastic, ceramic, and terracotta finishes. Plastic trays are lightweight and easy to clean. Ceramic plates look great on display shelves. Terracotta options suit balcony gardens and outdoor pots beautifully.
How to Pick the Right Planter Plate
The right plate should be 1–2 inches wider than your pot's base. This gives enough room to catch all draining water without overflow. Always match the plate shape to your pot — round, square, or oval.
- Small plates (up to 15 cm) — ideal for succulents, cacti, and small herb pots
- Medium plates (15–25 cm) — great for money plants, peace lilies, and indoor ferns
- Large plates (25 cm and above) — perfect for floor planters, fiddle-leaf figs, and palms
- Deep-rim plates — best for plants that need frequent watering
- Plate sets — save more when you buy multiple sizes together
Many of our plates are available as value packs, so you can cover all your pots in one easy order. Thousands of home gardeners across India have rated our planter plates as a must-have for any balcony or indoor garden setup.

Frequently asked questions
What size planter plate do I need?
Choose a plate that is 1–2 inches wider than your pot's base diameter. For example, a 20 cm pot works well with a 22–24 cm plate. This ensures all draining water is caught without spilling over the edges.
Are planter plates the same as pot saucers?
Yes — planter plates, drip trays, and pot saucers all refer to the same thing. They sit under a pot to catch drainage water and protect your floors and shelves. The names are used interchangeably across most garden stores in India.
Can I use planter plates outdoors on my balcony?
Absolutely! Terracotta and heavy-duty plastic plates are ideal for balcony and outdoor use. They handle sun, rain, and humidity well. Just empty standing water after heavy rain to prevent mosquito breeding.
How do I clean a planter plate?
Most planter plates are easy to clean with plain water and a soft cloth. For mineral deposits or algae, soak the plate in a mild vinegar-water solution for 15 minutes, then rinse well. Plastic and ceramic plates can also be wiped down with a damp sponge.

Yes, we deliver to most pincodes across India. Use the pincode delivery checker on the product page to confirm availability in your area. Orders are packed carefully to ensure plates arrive without cracks or damage.
