I have a lot of small self watering pots that work great, but have been looking for something I could use for my larger plants. I've moved my bird of paradise into one and it's never looked so healthy because before it was hard to water it just the right amount without worrying about spills on my floor (where my small plants can easily go to a sink). Have just bought another two for some of my other large plants as it's really working well and looks great at the same time. And I love that it's Aussie made.

I’ve always had a green thumb. I talk to my plants, they talk back (politely), and they’ve lived with me longer than some members of the family.

I now live with my son Aaron and his family, which means I’m surrounded by grandchildren, shoes at the front door, and constant activity — but my plants still expect the same royal treatment.

My biggest problem wasn’t keeping plants alive. It was the watering circus. Every watering day meant:

lifting heavy pots

taking them outside or to the sink

dripping water across the floor

and someone inevitably saying, “Nan, you’ve made a mess again.”

Along came the PerkyPod.

Now I give my plants a proper soak right where they sit. The water drains away into the drawer and the floor stays dry — which has apparently made me very popular with the household.

I still have my routine: a quiet wander around the house in the morning, a chat to the plants, a little tidy up, and yes… sometimes a cold beer afterwards while I admire my work.

The plants are thriving, the roots are healthier and I’m no longer wrestling pots like I’m moving house every Tuesday.

The best part?
It lets me water properly — a deep drink — without worrying about puddles, stains or overdoing it. Then if you need to move the pot, they just glide across the floor on the clever wheel system.

I didn’t need help growing plants. I needed help managing them.
This is the first pot I’ve owned that understands that.

Highly recommend — especially if you love your plants but don’t love carrying them around the house and making a mess every time you want to water Gertrude the Gardenia

Love my two perkypods with wheels… easy to
Move around and I love being able to water my plants knowing they’re are draining well
And not sitting in stinky water. Easy to use.

Finally I have a solution that helps me manage a rather large indoor plant without having to break my back moving it outside to water. The convenience means that I water it more often and if I am a little too enthusiastic, Lou’s design fixes that as well. You cannot go wrong.
Noting that indoor plants can cost a bit, I feel confident that I will not be throwing money out the window because of killing yet another plant. Lou’s design is worth the investment. Thanks Lou!

Gave my sons partner a pot
She loves it always changing up their house
Makes it so easy to move her favourite plant
