Containers with the self-watering system can be called a relatively new technique in the field of gardening. Thus, they have on one side the hole, instead of holes for drainage at the bottom. Here the nutrient medium should be installed directly on the platform with holes and over the water reservoir. In this case the roots grow through the culture medium directly into the water.



Most often water from the reservoir is absorbed into the medium. This type of containers may be called a combination of hydroponic method of gardening which lies in that the roots of plants grow in nutritionally enriched water and of standard container gardening. Such containers with self-watering system make it possible to maintain moisture and nutrients, and allow not paying any attention to the plants for several days.

The simplest embodiment of this method is placement of saucer with water under the pot with the plant. In such a situation, the excess water is absorbed in the culture medium or in the longest roots. Today, many models of such containers are represented on the market. But you can make one with your own hands.

You have probably watched the Home & Family show where I participate in the role of expert in the questions concerning garden lifestyle. I was asked by one of the producers to create a planter he saw in a garden magazine.

What came to mind first was the gorgeous design and too difficult construction. That I why I changed the design so as it could be made of wooden crated bought at the store.

Consequently, this planter acquired the name ‘Home-and-Family-Show-Vertical-Succulent-Monogram-Planter-by-Shirley-Bovshow’. Home & Family deck contains the wall planters for succulent in the form of letters "H" and "F".

The construction includes the following unique elements:

  • This unique design is created by means of hanging crates of different sizes which form the letters “H” and “F”. 
  • This kind of wall planters does not contain soil. 
  • The weight of the planter is quite low as the cuttings of succulent are planted in wet moss.
