What Makes It Uncommon

For plant parents, a vacation means hunting around for someone to babysit those botanicals...or drenching them before you leave and hoping for the best. Instead, treat your indoor greens to some intensive care with this amusingly designed and efficient self-watering system.

  • Inspired by hospital IV bags, it’ll deliver a steady drip of hydration to any kind of potted plant.
  • Just fill with water, hang the bag on the included hook, and open the flow regulator to release life-sustaining refreshment that’ll last for up to seven days (depending on the flow setting).
  • Ideal for taking care of plants while you’re away (or just forgetful about watering).
  • Made in China.

Great gift!

I thought this was the perfect gift idea for a doctor. It was well received!


Cute and fun gift for your nerdy gardener

Quality was better than expected. The item is a bit larger than expected, so do pay attention to the measurements. I gave one of these to my mom and friend who both geow herbs in their homes and the slow drip is much better for the plant. They love how fun it is and as both have a background in STEM they were very excited about the fact soemthing this nerdy exists. I thought it was so cute and was very happy my giftees loved the item so much and have put it to immediate use. #sweepstakes


What a Great Gift!

This is one of the most unusual and well-received gifts that I have ever given to someone. It's bigger than I thought it would be, and very sturdy. The directions were clear, so it went together easily. It looks best in a flower pot that is at least 8" in diameter, and definitely added interest to a potted plant that I gifted to the local Rescue Squad that helped me last year. They loved it! #sweepstakes


This is Brilliant!

I bought two of these, one for our local EMT squad and one for our Veterinarian's office. I got them each a pet-safe plant to go with it, but I discovered that I needed to buy 8" pots in order for this to work, because they're big. The whole thing was very easy to put together and seems sturdy. Both recipients loved the gift.


Great support

Easy to setup and use! Bought this for my friend who loves plants but they could use a little support. I also purchased it for another friend as well and it has been a hit with both! They had it setup and in a plant in less than 5 minutes. #sweepstakes


Easy to use

I bought this for a friend who loves plants and is also in her residency and it's the best combo! Easy to setup and move around as needed.


Stopped working

I got this and it was amazing (although I agree with ibe review in that there desperately needs to be a taller version). My shamrock got enormous!!! However, after about a year it just stopped working and the water bad stayed full. I figured something was clogged after all that time, so I removed the drip hose and cleaned the part you stick in the dirt. When I tested it, it seemed to work fine; water seeped out of it. But I set it up again and it's still not working—the water bag remains full. I really loved this and it saved my shamrock, but now I'm hesitant to order s replacement.


Hilarious Gift

I am a registered Nurse and have a son who has killed multiple plants so, over the years, I have given him funny gifts, i.e. fake plants, hand blown glass plants, etc.. When I saw this item I knew I had to give it to him for Christmas. We all had a great laugh. Hopefully his plants will have a better chance at survival now!


Perfect for those traveling plant lovers!

Ok.. so my bestie LOVES his plants. Thing is, he travels A LOT for work... and that can mean hiring someone just to come in and love on his plants during his trip. These Plant Life Support Self-Waterers were my way of helping a bff out! Now he doesn't have to worry about his plants getting the H2o they need while he's off making more money to buy more plants with.


Cute and functional

Really cute item, and functions well! Of course, for the price it will probably not last forever but if you set it up correctly it has been working great. The only slight downside is that the metal holder can struggle in loose soil or small pots. But this is likely solvable with some work.

Can it be used with outdoor potted plants?

Verified reply from Jen

Yes, as long as they are potted you are ready to go!


How long would a bag of water last? I plan to travel abroad for a month and would like to use these.

Verified reply from Ashley

Thank you for your question! The flow regulator on the Plant Life Support Self-Waterer allows you to release life-sustaining refreshment that’ll last for up to seven days depending on the flow setting.


Is this reusable or one time use?

Verified reply from Maxienne

This is reusable.


Does this work for orchids, or would the flow rate be too high?

Verified reply from Dayle-Marie

Thank you for inquiring about our Plant Life Support Self-Waterer. You can adjust the flow regulator to drip more or less water depending on the needs of the plant. Here is a link to our video of how to assemble: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu6wJj7QeXY


How does filling the bag work?

Verified reply from Michelle

Hi! You fill the bag from the open tube at the bottom using a faucet, before you attach the tubing that you will insert into the soil.
