The Franklin Self Watering Planter combines a classic planter design with sub-irrigation technology for a vessel that's equal parts form and function, 

The patented sub-irrigation insert allow plants to drink from the roots, just as nature intended. Simply lift the planter to refill the dish below when the reservoir is empty.

By watering from the bottom, instead of the top, the plants roots are able to grow into the water reservoir and drink whenever they're thirsty - so you don't have to guess. The design allows for increased root oxygenation, which prevents pesky issues like root rot.

Instructions

Place the Sub-Irrigation Insert into the planter, fill the pot with the included Aeration Stones, and pot your plant. Give the plant a heavy watering when first planted, until water runs freely out of the bottom of the Sub-Irrigation Insert. You'll want to continue watering your plant from the top for 2-4 weeks, until the plant's roots grow down into the reservoir. You can test to make sure the plant's roots have grown down by filling up the reservoir 1/4 to 1/2 way. If the water level goes down on its own, you're in business.

Make sure that you give your plant a "dry-out" period between refilling the reservoir, usually around 2-5 days.

This planter can also be used in the same way as a traditional planter with a saucer.
