Succulents can be grown in wooden flower pots. In fact, succulents can be grown in any container; it is just that the final result may not be as easy and worry-free as growing them in coarse ceramic pots.

The only advantage of growing succulents in wooden flower pots is probably the matching style; they look beautiful when planted in them, and a thousand pieces of gold cannot buy the feeling that you think it is beautiful. The second advantage may be that you happen to have a pot on hand and can reuse an old item. (In fact, besides wooden flower pots, some tea caddies can also serve as containers for planting; naturally, these all deteriorate relatively quickly.)

Other than that, there seems to be no particular reason to recommend using wooden flower pots.

Because wooden flower pots really have no advantage

1. The wooden flower pots commonly sold on the market for 10, 20 or 30 yuan usually swell under the combined effects of watering and sun exposure, and typically split at the seams. After one or two years they are pretty much ruined. Anti-corrosion wood may be a bit better.

2. Some wooden flower pots often do not have pre-drilled holes, and compared with other flower pots, they are not especially breathable either.

3. When wood is damp, it is always relatively easy for mold to grow and for insects to be attracted.

In the end, as long as you think it is beautiful, that is enough. If using wooden flower pots, consider some succulents that do not need frequent watering; pay attention to ventilation, and dryness can appropriately extend the life of wooden flower pots.
