Product Description

Now, here´s a simple and attractive way to keep beloved houseplants perfectly watered at all times. Easy-to-use, hand blown stained glass Water Globes water plants efficiently for up to 2 weeks. It´s the most beautiful and fully-functional solution for automatic houseplant watering ever. The globes are simply filled with water and inserted into the soil of houseplants.

Here's how it works...

As soil becomes dry, it releases oxygen in Water Globes, which provides the exact amount of water the plant needs - it´s that simple! The perfect alternative to daily watering, it waters plants automatically during trips away, plus, no spills to clean up and no more over-watering. Gorgeous hand blown stained glass Water Globes dispenses water as plants need it, every time!

Colours supplied may vary between green, blue or red glass bulbs

With reference to the lady who had a problem with the Water Globe emptying too quickly. I have found that it works more efficiently if the plant is thoroughly watered first - then the globe is only topping up the watering and not trying to wet all the soil in the pot from dry.

Some good/some bad 26 Aug 2010

Looks great in the large plants, smaller plants look a little dwarfed next to them as they dominate the pots.

It is clear these will only function correctly if the soil is pretty damp to start with.

I noticed there are serveral imperfections/white blemishes in the glass, but this doesn't detract from the overall appearance.

The only thing I'm unsure about is whether these would over water the plants in the winter time when they require much less water.

I just wished they sold the smaller aqua globes for the same reasonable price on Amazon.

Edited below after using these for a few weeks: -

The bulbs I received are clearly the production defective ones. I have 6 of these bulbs with 2 of them with small necks which makes impossible to refill under the tap. Very frustrating.

Some of these are good quality with wide necks, these are fine. I don't mind blemishes in the glass, but these small necked bulbs are not usable.

Changed rating from inital 5 star, to 3 star.

..as the title suggests - easy to use and effective (I use them for indoor plants and they seem happy so far).

The price is also OK.

Water globes do the trick
I'm not sure how important it is that they are hand-blown. It probably means that they can be somewhat inconsistant in performance. Read more

This product allows you to go away for at least 2 weeks with one less thing to worry about. All my plants were still flourishing as when I left.
Would recommend.

Looks nice didn't work
Having read a few reviews on this type of product I decided that the best way forward was to water the plant and then stick the globes in....which I did. Read more
