Q: do i just pour the water in the bottom?? is that how it self waters?? or do i put it on the dirt at the top first and then it keeps rewatering with the water i poured in the top?

Q: can the bottom be removed? I was to use it as a decorative planter instead of self watering so I don't want the tray on the bottom
submitted by tlmeade99 - 11 months ago
A: Great question! The bottom portion of the planter can be detached. There are slits in the upper portion so if you remove the bottom portion when/if you water the plant the water will seep down through the dirt and out the bottom. Therefore, we would not recommended to remove the bottom part of planter. Hope this information helps!

Q: Can the bottom part be detached?
submitted by maria - 1 year ago
A: Hello Maria - Great question! The bottom portion of the planter can be detached but you wouldn't want to. The bottom portion is a reservoir for holding water that self waters the plant and its roots. There are slits in the upper portion so if you remove the bottom portion when/if you water the plant the water will seep down through the dirt and out the bottom. Therefore, we would not recommended to remove the bottom part of planter. Hope this information helps! - Kasey

I love the color. The color is true to the description online, so I was not surprised when I bought the planter. I loved it so much that I got the bigger size in white. And put them together and filled them both with succulents and put them on my patio table.

TheOtherAmy - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
Like the description says, this is a lovely little planter. It fits perfectly in my windowsill and is the perfect size for me to grow green onions and cilantro and have them at hand for cooking year-round. It exactly suits my needs for my two favorite flavor enhancers for making it seem like i didn't just add water to ramen and making muffin tin egg bites that much better. My only tiny little complaint is that the little watering spot could be a tad bit bigger, it is really hard to put any water into it. It is barely bigger than the container so it almost lays flush against it. My cooking funnel does not work, a cup or glass does not work... The only thing I found is using a flexible disposable cup and slightly squeezing it, and only pouring about half of the water into the planter, then refilling it. Any more and it spills out. I've made it work, but just having the bit more of a lip would bump this up to a perfect item for me.

Love this planter, its sleek and modern but practical to use in my home. Decided to get something (unbreakable) to grow some cat grass for my kitty that wouldn't be too expensive. Works perfect and still looks great in my space!

The color online is WAY off the real color. The real color is so very bright orange and not what I expected. I did a curbside pick-up and didn't see it until I got home. Yikes!

Exactly as pictured and what I needed for my window. I’ve had some trouble getting the dirt off that I spilled on the sides. It’s like a textured plastic. It’s does come off with effort though.

With my patio table and chairs, we don't have a lot of room for larger planters. These are perfect for small places indoors and out. I use them for herbs and bulb flowers.
