Summer is upon us and hopefully that means you have a few fun trips planned away from the house!
Summer also means high heat and plants that require frequent watering, especially if they’re in a container. But you don’t have to worry about your plants withering away while you soak up the rays on the lake or sea shore with my latest giveaway!
You can add this insert from Southern Patio to almost any planter (up to 18 inches) and turn it into a self-watering planter.
When you’re potting a plant in a planter or container, first add the self-watering insert to the bottom. Then plant your flowers as usual. (Check out my post on how I used this self-watering insert by clicking here.)
The way the insert works is you fill the reservoir with water when you’re home, and the rope wicks water from the reservoir into the soil for the roots to soak up while you’re away!
But that’s not all I’m giving away this week! (3) winners will also receive one of these 16″ Cabana resin planters!
Maybe you don’t have a green thumb yet, but I think you’ll be on your way to one with a self-watering insert and a pretty new planter! Use the widget below to enter for your chance to win!
**Thanks to Southern Patio for sponsoring this giveaway!
Thanks for the giveaway!
love this idea as I always forget to water my plants, thanks for the great info
Finally a way to help prevent root rot from overwatering by over zealous gardeners like me. Thanks, Chelsea and Southern Patio!

I am sorry you are going to miss Mother ‘s Day! I bet you are a fabulous mom! Can’t wait to see what’s happening in Denver!
Thanks, Dawn! ~Chelsea
This would be perfect! I wish I could participate..
Thanks for the great giveaway though!
XO, Vanessa
Love the look of the planter!
Very cool watering tool — and a classic style planter, too!
What a great idea! We have a timer for our garden, but nothing for our potted plants.
It’s interesting how the amount of water and sun can affect a plant. We planted a number of lilies in a long container and the ones in the dryer/shadier areas are doing half as nice as the ones on the opposite end.
Yes it’s crazy to see nature in action like that! ~Chelsea
Very cool! Will have to check these out.
Thank you this would make my mother’s day!
