Self-Watering Aroid Pots / Anti-Spiral Roots
Effortless Hydration and Root Health for Your Aroids
Our Self-Watering Aroid Pots are meticulously designed to provide consistent moisture and promote healthy root development. These pots feature an efficient self-watering system that ensures your plants receive adequate hydration without the risk of overwatering, effectively preventing root rot.
The innovative design includes eight rows of side ventilation slits, offering unmatched airflow to the roots. This, combined with the anti-spiral structure, encourages roots to grow downward rather than circling, fostering a robust and healthy root system. The transparent construction allows you to monitor root health and growth easily, ensuring your plants thrive.

Soil and Maintenance Recommendations
Our pots are compatible with both mineral and organic soil mixes. For optimal drainage and aeration, we recommend adding a layer of mineral mix at the bottom.
For larger pots (18 cm or 21 cm), finer mineral substrates like Lechuza Pon may slip through the drainage holes. We suggest using substrates with larger particle sizes for these pots, like our mineral mix.
To maintain a healthy growing environment, clean the water reservoir once a month to prevent the buildup of residues and mineral deposits.
While the use of a wick is generally unnecessary, incorporating one in our two largest pots can be beneficial. It ensures that moisture reaches the upper portions of the soil, which can be challenging depending on individual conditions and the soil mix used.
Common Questions
How does the self-watering system work?
The pot features a reservoir at the bottom that stores water. Through capillary action, moisture is drawn up into the soil as needed, ensuring consistent hydration without overwatering.
Can I use these pots for plants other than aroids?
Absolutely! While designed with aroids in mind, these pots are suitable for any plants that benefit from consistent moisture and excellent root aeration.
