Product Description

The Plant Nanny is a specially-engineered ceramic stake that waters your plant easily and beneficially. Inserted into moist soil near the root base, the Nanny will release water as the soil begins to dry, so it won't under-water or over-water your plants. The lovely fluted glass globe serves as the water reservoir and adds a shimmer of beauty to the plant. The water level can easily be seen, so you know exactly when to refill the globe. Packaged in a decorative gift box.

5.0 out of 5 stars better than aqua globes, June 16, 2008

By 

Elise (South Carolina) - See all my reviews

I purchased three of these globes 2 years ago and love them. They work wonders when you're a negligent plant keeper. I needed some more, but opted to try aqua globes since they are cheaper. I've had the aqua globes for several months and there's no comparison. Unfortunately, the aqua globes I purchased were difficult and time consuming to fill. Also, some of the aqua globes did not always release water as designed. These PlantNanny watering globes are much easier to fill and they do not fail to water the plant. It's worth the extra money.

This review is from: The Plant Furniture Company 8100 Clear Fluted Glass Watering Globe with Plant Nanny, Set of 3 (Lawn & Patio)

I have many indoor plants & it was "hit or miss" in remembering which ones needed watering and which I had forgotten. With the "Clear Glass Watering Globe", just insert the pottery "stake" flush with the pot into the roots, then place the ball into it. All you see is the globe. The globe holds about a cup of water which seeps into the plant over 3 or 4 days. When the globe runs low on water, remove it (not the stake), refill, insert it back on the stake. No more guessing. Love these globes. Unobtrusive, kinda pretty. I have bought nine now. I also use them for starting outdoor plants. So low to the ground the wind never bothers them. These watering globes are not the ones sold on tv.

The only reason I can keep an indoor plant alive is these great little things! They look great in the pot and do a great job of keeping the plant perfectly watered.
