Product Features
  • WATER LESS OFTEN: A cotton wick draws water up from the reservoir in the base and into the soil as it dries, so one fill can carry a plant for up to a week, depending on the plant and the light. There is no saucer to empty and nothing left puddling on the windowsill.
  • SEE EXACTLY WHEN TO REFILL: A clear window on the base shows the water level at a glance, and a spout on the side lets you top it up without lifting the plant or moving it off the shelf, so a refill is a quick pour rather than a trip to the sink.
  • DRAINAGE THAT KEEPS ROOTS OUT OF STANDING WATER: The inner pot lifts out and has drainage holes in a vented base, so extra water runs down into the reservoir instead of collecting around the roots, and the soil gets air as well as water. Lifting it out also makes repotting and rinsing the reservoir simple.
  • SHELF, DESK OR WINDOWSILL: The set comes in three sizes, 8, 10 and 12 inches across, made for tabletop and shelf plants like pothos, snake plant, herbs, succulents, African violets and spider plants rather than floor trees, and the two smaller pots nest inside the largest when they are not in use.
  • LOOKS LIKE POTTERY, LIFTS WITH ONE HAND: A matte pot sits over a speckled, terracotta-toned base, so the set reads as decor on a bookshelf, a desk or an office credenza rather than a nursery pot. It is plastic all the way through, which keeps a planted pot light enough to move with one hand and lets it take the odd bump. In white or black.
Product Description

Fill the base, set it on the shelf, and let the wick take it from there.
The Backyard Expressions self-watering set pairs three planters — small, medium and large, 8, 10 and 12 inches across — each with a reservoir in the base and a cotton wick that draws water up into the soil as it dries. A clear window shows how much water is left, a spout on the side lets you top it up without moving the plant, and the inner pot lifts out, with drainage holes that send extra water down into the reservoir rather than around the roots. One fill lasts up to a week, depending on the plant and the light.

The matte upper pot and speckled terracotta base are finished to look deliberate on a desk, an office credenza, a windowsill or a living room shelf, and the durable plastic will not chip or crack the way ceramic does while staying light enough to move a planted pot with one hand. They suit pothos, snake plant, succulents, spider plant, peace lily, philodendron, African violet, orchids, herbs and most common houseplants. To use them, fill the reservoir through the side spout and refill when the indicator reads empty, typically about once a week, though thirsty plants, brighter light and warmer rooms will shorten that. For newly potted plants, water from the top for the first two to three weeks until the roots reach the wick.

The set includes three planters in small, medium and large, enough to cover most of a collection or to move a plant up a size as it grows. Each one has a lift-out inner pot with drainage holes and a perforated, aerated base, so excess water drops into the reservoir instead of sitting around the roots. A clear water level indicator window on the outside of the base shows how much is left at a glance, and a side fill spout lets you top it up without lifting the plant, carrying it to the sink or disturbing the soil. Because the reservoir is built in, there are no separate saucers to knock over and no rings of water left on a shelf or desk.
