Rose. I too was looking for shallow pots..I found some on Ebay and Amazon, but some are Orchid pots...But no side slits. Good luck, Toni

Lynn - bonsai pots make good shallow containers for succulents, and I often use terra cotta saucers:

{{gwi:3271}}

with a couple of holes drilled in the bottom (easy in terra cotta).

Tip to remember: it's much more important that you use a coarse soil in shallow containers than in deeper ones because a higher % of soil will remain saturated. If you were to use heavy soils like Miracle-Gro and others similar in the shallow containers pictured, the soil would be 100% saturated after a thorough watering or a heavy rain - not a good situation where succulents are concerned.

Try shopping these links (copy/paste to your browser) for shallow containers in various sizes & price ranges:

Have found some ceramic pots (similar to bonsai style) at Lowes next to their selection of succulents.
