I love this trick - maybe you do this already and I was just under a rock for the last decade. I saw this on a florist card and have been tending to my houseplants this way for a few months and am loving it! This works especially well in pots that don't have built in drainage.
Do you see the ice cubes in the planter?
Put a few ice cubes in your houseplants for the weekly watering - no spilling, no leaking out the bottom, and your littles can even do it for you!
This is the BEST TIP! Thank you so so much, Becky! Now if I can just remember to refill the ice cube trays regularly...;)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Now I can in good conscience go buy some house plants! I so dislike watering indoor pants because of spillage, but no longer! Yay! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Must try this.
ReplyDeleteBecky have you noticed that the cold is too shocking to the plants? That would be my only worry. I have some small orchids and don't want to kill them (although likely they will succumb to my black thumb anyway). Thanks for the wonderful idea.
