Self-Watering Brilliance: Flo's ingenious self-watering system keeps your plants perfectly hydrated, with its integrated recycled cotton wick gradually watering your plants from the bottom up. The beauty of Flo's design is that you can see the water level at all times, meaning you know when your plant is thirsty again. This promotes robust, healthy root development, alleviating concerns of both under-watering and the more troublesome over-watering, to ensure your plants flourish.
Thoughtful Design: Flo is more than just a pretty face. Its handcrafted ceramic planter snugly nestles within the glass reservoir, elegantly cradled by a metal stand. But this design isn't just for looks; it raises Flo above the surface, reducing contact points and effectively preventing the mold growth that plagues many other planters. With the water level visible, you can be confident that your plants' roots are safe from excess moisture.
Perfect for Most Plants: Flo suits a wide variety of plants, even those that don't have a thirst for constant watering. The key is using the right soil for your plant, which will hold the ideal amount of water. As your plant's roots draw water from the soil, the soil, in turn, draws water from the reservoir via the recycled cotton wick.
Optional Cotton Wick: Using Flo for a plant that doesn't need frequent hydration? No problem—the recycled cotton wick is optional and removable, giving you flexibility in plant care.
Easy Maintenance: Flo's user-friendly design makes it a breeze to top up the water level and clean the glass reservoir. Drainage holes in the ceramic planter's feet ensure that excess water collects in the reservoir, providing a balanced environment for your plant.

Get To Know Flo
Self-Watering? How?
So, how do self-watering plant pots work? The truth is most don’t and others are just far to abstract or overly complicated with connected apps and buzzing alerts. At Frond we have taken things back to basics and steered clear of unnecessary tech.
Flo is a self-watering plant pot that operates on a simple yet effective principle. The glass reservoir holds water, and a recycled cotton wick extends from the reservoir into the soil of the plant. As the soil dries out, the wick draws water from the reservoir and delivers it directly to the plant's roots.
But that’s not all. Flo’s unique design allows you to see the water level at a glance. This means you'll always know when your plant is thirsty again, no more guessing!
This "bottom-up" watering method promotes healthy root growth and eliminates the risk of overwatering, making it an ideal choice for both plant enthusiasts and beginners alike.
Do Self-Watering Plant Pots Really Work?
Absolutely! Flo’s Self-watering system is designed to provide consistent moisture to your plants while also ensuring better water distribution throughout the soil.
Unlike traditional pots that often water just the top layer, Flo's wick system delivers water directly to the root zone, promoting balanced hydration and minimising the risk of gnats caused by damp topsoil.
Furthermore, Flo's innovative design keeps your plants' root system elevated above the water level, preventing them from sitting in excess water. This crucial feature reduces the likelihood of root rot, a common issue for poorly houseplants.
These advantages make Flo a practical and plant-friendly solution for maintaining indoor greenery, especially for those without a green thumb or who are frequently away from home.
1. Plant directly into Flo. Remove your plant from its nursery pot and plant into Flo’s ceramic pot
2. Wicking technology. Flo has a recycled cotton wick that absorbs water and through capillary action delivers water into the soil as it dries.
3. Visible water reservoir. With Flo’s unique glass reservoir your plants water source is visible at a glance. No guessing when to water!
4. Easy access and pot removal via Flo’s contoured rim, Great for water top up, cleaning and plant maintenance.
