If you sometimes overwater your plants and end up killing them, it really isn’t your fault: it’s the lack of self-watering pots. Far too often, pretty plants are being damaged as a result of water damage to the roots.
With Rainy Pot, you get to imagine how Zeus would react on those rainy days; by pouring water into the clouds, water is evenly distributed to your precious shrubs below. These little plant holders can stay inside and never need to be drained because their base will never flood with too much water. Your plants get to enjoy natural environmental and a light sprinkle and you get to enjoy the beautiful feeling of keeping your plants for more than a week.
If you have kids, this is a visual way to explain the cycle of ecology and the movements of nature.
