Forget blending in — these pots were meant to stand out! Plant these crayon-bright containers with cool-season flowers to add color this fall, or stock up for next spring. Each pot holds 7 quarts of soil; the 1-quart reservoir is easy to fill through the side port. Made from 100% recycled, UV-stable plastic so color won't fade.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
Just received them but previous self-watering pots I've used outdoors have been marvelous. I expect these to be the same. Once I actually have experience I will then upgrade to a 5 which is probably where they ought to be ranked. I am buying more!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
This is an attractive, reasonable-priced (on sale) self-watering pot. The matte finish is not too "plastic" looking, and the color is lovely. It seems quite sturdy and will probably last a long time. The only reason I don't give it the full five stars is that the hole for adding water to the reservoir is an oblong shape instead of round, making it sometimes difficult to fit the pliable plastic cover back on unless you position it just right. It appears that it would have been easier if the hole and cover were round.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
I ordered half a dozen for container gardening on my deck, and liked them so much I ordered another half dozen. The pots are light and easy to move around, hold lots of water, and are perfect for the tropicals I grow to make the long Illinois winters bearable. My plants grow well in them; I wish they were also available in a larger size.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
good buy for a beginner..stops over watering
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I love these pots because they help prevent plants from drying out while at the same time providing easy drainage of excess water, and plants seem to thrive in them.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I have 2 other hanging "self watering" pots. They are plant savers during our hot, dry summers.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Like really like this pot and I would buy again.
Better producted than I expected and very reasonably priced.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Planted them with plumeria, will be easy to move to follow the sun or avoid the frost.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I love using primary colors in my cottage style house and garden. These pots fit the bill by adding splashes of color even when you are using evergreens or mostly green plants. I love the way the saucer is made to catch and maintain the moisture inside the pot. This works well for our hot and sometimes dry summers in Tennessee.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
I also added strips of a wicking material with the bottom in the well and the tops coming up the sides of the planter. I put mums in the pots and sat them on my front steps to brighten up my otherwise dull front porch. They work wonderfully and look great.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Finally; attractive, inexpensive (i got them on sale) self-watering planters that i can pick up without having to be a weight lifter.

What is great is: it can be used inside or outside.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Really lovely blue color. Nice size and sturdy.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I am working on building up my window sills and these pots were the perfect purchase. Affordable, large, and they are really well designed. I love that I don't have to water frequently, my old pots do not store water well at all compared to these. I am going to buy some more!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I am looking forward to growing spices on the back deck.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I haven't had to water my plants daily since I used these pots for plants on my porch. We have had a very dry season here in Western PA where I live and my plants have stayed green even though I DO forget to water them periodically.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I ordered these on-sale for next spring. I like the colors and am gradually replacing all my conventional pots and planter with self-watering styles because we are frequently away from home for long weekends. Access to the water reservoir chamber seems awkward. It is not a pitcher-type lip like on my favorite self-watering pot but a hose-sized hole on the side with a removable plastic stopper. I will probably lose the stoppers first thing when I begin using these pots outdoors. They would be very hard to fill indoors.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
My only additional comment is a disappointment that you did not have the green colored container available. Would have loved to have all 3 colors.
Thus I gave in a 4 * rather than a 5 *.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I was excited to get the self-watering planters as we are gone for short periods and don't like to have someone take care of things.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I purchased two pots and they are perfect.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Am using for houseplants that I place outside in the spring and return to the house in the fall. The pots I was using were not draining well and were too shallow.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
These pot are great because they totally cut down on the amount of time spent on watering plants. Here in the northeast we've had one of the hottest and driest summers on record. Having self watering pot is,especially in ther full sun areas of my garden is just great.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I bought red and blue pots. I put a small tomato plant in the red one; it grew faster and the tomatoes ripened more quickly than in the previous weeks. The red color may have encouraged it and the self watering feature definitely helps to keep the moisture level regulated esp. in the drought we are experiencing.
The flower in the blue pot is also doing well but not as dramatically as the red pot.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Hope to use this product this fall for mums and other outdoor flowers. A nice size and color. If larger pots were available, would buy them also.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Love this pot! Bought ten of them when they went on sale!

I arranged all of my Mums in these pots on a wall. They look very colorful.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
These are beautiful pots - colors are vibrant and they are lightweight to more around. I am using them for seasonal plants (mums) which i will put into the ground later in the season. Thank you!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Didn't use them yet ... Will use it next year get them 2 late 2 use this year like them..... I got 2 blue 2 red .
Comments about Colorful Pot:
good idea but a hassle to fill and recap
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Pots replaced metal planters that stained stairs. New red pots brighten entry and my plants do not dry out!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I really liked the color but was disappointed after a big rain that everything planted in them was drowning.they hadn't been planted long enough for the roots to take over and when i dumped the water the plant was coming too. i'm sure they will make good greenhouse planters or house planterd out doors is questionable
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Needed something sturdy and attractive to replant a Hibiscus tree, this filled the bill exactly.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
This is my first time with these pots. Experimenting with house plants. We're out of town alot and hoping this works on my thirsty plants.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I wish I had them earlier when it was warm. Maybe next year I guess assuming we have a warmer summer.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I will use them for transferring outside plants inside for the winter
Comments about Colorful Pot:
These pots are GREAT...should have bought a couple more!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I like to grow herbs in pots, and like self-watering pots because I am away alot and our summers tend to be very dry. What attracted me to these pots are the bright colors. I prefer color neutral pots for flowers, but think the bright colors are a fun contrast to basil and parsley.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Adds color to the yard! I live in the desert and having the water resevoir is important.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
these hold pretty big plants, I have a couple of huge Christmas cacti that were terribly root bound and in need of transplanting. These did the trick, plants are happy they're beginning to bud.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I bought these on clearance as I was attracted to the colors and the fact that they had water reservoirs. However, access to the reservoirs are
through a hole in the side of the container (no outward spout) and I see where it is going to be hard to fill them once the container is planted!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
These pots provide a burst of color in a shady spot by our front door. They are big enough to hold several shade-loving bright plants - and to provide real interest to our entry way. I'll likely add a couple more next season.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
This colorful pot is perfect to brighten my patio with sweet smelling flowers.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Using these pots for outdoor and indoor plants. They are attractive and drain well.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I use them onmy deck so I don't have to water as much
Comments about Colorful Pot:
These are a good size, light, and their straight sides make them stable and space-efficient.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Nice bright colors add additional interest to the garden scene. Helps keep potted plants hydrated, saving the gardener time and energy.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Only thing wrong with this pot is the fact that it is difficult to see when the reservoir is getting full. I wish it had the little cup to pour the water into so one can see when the water level is getting full. I have run it over several times. It is a good smaller self watering container for my indoor veggie garden in the sunroom. I grow small tomatoes in it along with a few water loving herbs and greens.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
These pots with their built-in reservoir are just the right size for my out doors plants. A great buy!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I have this planter on the front porch, and it has a nice "pop"!
Comments about Colorful Pot:
This pot is not so big and heavy that it is hard to move around. Great size and weight when you are trying to find the best area in your yard for a specific plant. You can move it easily to get more/less light, etc.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I recommend having larger and smaller sizes available.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I haven't had these pots long enough to thoroughly rate them, but I do wonder why the plug for refilling the water resevoir is oval rather than round. It makes it difficult to reinsert easily.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Used for outdoor planting. Looks great, waater less, light-weight and easy to handle.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
This is a good indoor pot for larger houseplants. Although I really prefer the oval self-watering planters that were available last year, the oval shape didn't work well for large, individual plants. At the sale price, you can't go wrong.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
Just the right size for a marvelous display of
a variety of plants, and with the water reservoir
a time saver for the weary.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I use this pot for patio plants. It's not as large as some pots and is much easier to manage. It's very attractive with plants in it and it works well. Love the colors.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
Used for colorful pots on front porch, look great, good colors.
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I'll use a these pots for display on our porch steps and probably fill them with herbs! Can't wait until spring
Comments about Colorful Pot:
I bought this to use outside. The "Window Plug" is higher than it should be to allow heavy rain to get out. As a result, if you don't tip it over after thunderstorms, the roots rot. I got it for 1/2 off at end of season so I could deal with this. I would have been quite unhappy had I paid full price. The Green color is not the light green shown in the catalogue or on the internet but a Kelly Green that looks really cheap. The blue is a good strong blue and looks good. I didn't buy the red ones.

not just another boring pot

Comments about Colorful Pot:
We've had lots of rain lately and this beautiful pot never drains. As a result, I find myself tipping it over to let the water out so the roots don't rot. It should be designed like the hanging basket so that there's a place for the overflow to go.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
When I received my order,I was suprised at the lack of quality. I ordered five blue pots, and they are flimsy and cheap-looking. I will use them as outdoor planters because they are made with a drainage shelf inside, but they surely won't be any kind of centerpiece container.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
This is a great pot for outdoor summer annuals. The reservoir is nice to have in the hot and humid weather and it drains easily.

Comments about Colorful Pot:
I am using the pots for my petunias outdoors. With any type of heavy rain, it is easy to pop the plastic "water windows" off to drain excess water from the pot. However, when reattaching the window back to one of the pots, the window did not just snap back. It somehow popped thru the hole and is now floating in the water reserve. Hopefully, I'll be able to fish it out sometime!

I purchased this to go outside among all the other various pots.
It is a little smaller than I was thinking it would be.
