Description
Give seeds their best start with the Back to the Roots Self-Watering Terracotta Olla Pot. The Olla (pronounced "oy-ya") is an ancient gardening tool and automatic watering system that has been used for over 4,000 years by desert farmers to help grow plants in dry, tough climates. This easy plant self watering pot creates a microporous surface that slowly releases water through osmosis as your plants need it. Now, you can bring that same ancient technology into your home and experience worry-free watering - indoors or out! Place your water pot in the soil, fill with water, cap with the rubber stopper, and refill when empty after approximately seven days. The Back to the Roots Olla Pot plant watering system is a great addition to your at-home gardening supplies and plant watering devices!

Fantastic way to keep your gardens evenly watered through the warm months. I’m an avid gardener and my tomatoes did better than ever. I recommend fully watering in your garden, then topping up this Terra Cotta pot, for longevity of the watering. Target’s price on this is very fair, but they run out of stock fast, snap them up while you can.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always wanted to try one of these, so appreciated the opportunity from Influenster. We've had a particularly cold and rainy spring until recently, but I finally got the chance to try it out in a raised bed with my greens. This is much easier and less time consuming than watering daily and will be a lifesaver when we take short trips in the summer and don't need to ask someone to come over to water every day! I'll definitely be purchasing at least 6 more for my other beds

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used these before and they have lasted forever! I can’t wait to use them this season with all kinds of plants in my garden. Spring is here and my plants are sprouting and this will be in the ground soon! If you’re a forgetful waterer, this is the product for you.

Absolutely great value. Packaged well and very simple to use. I bought one for each of my large house plants because I am terrible at watering as frequently as I should. Works exactly as advertised.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is awesome! So easily to use and durable! This was a perfect product to receive for me because I leave out of town a lot and it’s hard to maintain my plants. This takes care of watering them when I’m gone for a week at a time. Definitely buying more to have for my garden.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all, I’ve never heard about irrigation pot before so I’m really excited when receiving the product. The packaging is great, looks like it’s expensive and high quality which gain customer’s trust. The product is made of good clay, it’s durable. It works like the instruction. I just need to put water in the pot and then bury it next to the plants, leaving the top exposed and the roots of the plants will grow toward the water source. Omg It’s brilliant !!! Then, I refill water after 6-7 days. It saves time and the most important thing is save your water bill. I love itttt !!
Great

Better suited for house plants

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, There’s no way this would work in a garden but is better suited for an indoor plant. I have a fiddle fig in a big pot and it gets neglected terribly so I was excited to throw this bad boy in there. I love how easy it is to fill and you can tell it’s seeping thru to the soil because the terracotta gets darker. The first watering I did my plant guzzled the entire thing within a day mai ly because it was dry as a bone but the second time I filled it a few days later I’ve noticed that it has stayed wet looking for the last 2 days so it must be doing its thing and slowly watering my plant for me. I don’t recommend this for certain plants because some plants need to be fully dry before watering but if you’re plant needs steady moisture I highly recommend! I hope they bring out some smaller options as well
Great for flower pots.

I like that is can easily fit into a large flower pot. The hole at the top is large enough to either pour from a watering can or use a hose.
