Mini wick pot - you pick


Attractive self-watering pot for those who wish to "wick" their miniature violets.  Includes 2 1/4" (57 mm) pot, wick, and plastic reservoir (2 1/4"w x 4 1/4"h).  For best results, you must use potting mix containing at least 50% perlite--like our "wicking" mix.  Comes in three colors: rose, violet, or green.  Select your color below.  To use, fill reservoir with water, exend wick from water in reservoir through bottom of pot into soil.

Mini wick pot - you pick

Average Rating 4.8 out of 5

Perfect

I love wick watering and had my minis and micros each in pricey little wicked planters but noticed often as they grew , I had to water midweek Slowly I have moved into these wicked pots and my life is serene now I only have to water every 7-14 days and I put painters tape around so poof no algae My violets and streps are thriving and look beautiful!!! Highly recommend Donna

a little disappointing

I ordered several of these last year and have mixed feelings. Some of my violets have done well; others seem to dry out too much. Maybe the length of the wick is an issue? It's also rather difficult to get down into the bottom corners to clean the pots when algae grows.

Great Pots

I ordered three of these last year. This is the only way to go when growing african violets. I am ordering more today. I wish they would make them for the stanard violets. I just love them.

Received 2 of the clear wicking pots as a gift, Loved them, couldn't wait to order more. Will be buying more when the green & blues are available.

Nice!

I thought these might look a bit cheesy around the nice ceramic pots, but they actually look rather elegant. They raise the minis up, and I wish I'd gotten one for every semi as well, at least for while they're young. The pots they arrived in also fit the hole, so you can use them immediately. They were out of clear, so I got purples to match purple flowers, and pink to match pink.
