In your opinion, what color flower pots best show off indoor green plants?

I'd like to buy pots that don't detract from the lovely green color of my three new plants, ZZ, Pathos and I can't remember the name of the third one. Decorations in the room include colored glass bottles, (jewel tones of turquoise, blue, purple, green), a colored glass wind chime and a painting of the turquoisey-blue color of the ocean. Also, any suggestions on what color to paint my new wooden tiered plant stand? Thanks. Although I am not color blind, I do have trouble figuring out color combinations. Thanks again!

Terra cotta, definitely.
Reply:... Stick with Terra Cotta ....... It is inexpensive, visually non-assaultive or distracting, and will let a plant be itself ... Goes with any Color Scheme .......
Reply:I would go with a pale blue glass pots... they would be hard to find but they would look so good with the things you described. It would be unique and pretty but not strong enough to stand out from the rest.





for the stand... i think i would either stain the wood to cherry... or paint it... but why would u want to paint over the wood? i personally like the wood color.. but if your going to do a great job painting over it (haha) then i would suggest white/ivory (it would help the plants POP especially with a few great pots), or khaki. blue always goes with khaki.
Reply:i would just stain the wood and use the stucco colored pots, they reddish brownish orangish color, but keep it hidden, the wood showing would look the best.
