Cloudy Watering Devices

This Ceramic Cloud Devices Takes Care to Water Plants Automatically

— December 3, 2014 — Art & Design
If your house plants are always looking a little thirsty, this handy device takes care to water plants automatically for you and looks pretty cute in the process. The device takes the form of a ceramic cloud and to give plants an extra boost, the Rain Cloud automatic watering device is paired with a bottle of nutrients so that roots and soil are kept from being too acidic.

The Rain Cloud device doesn't over-water plants, but it does assist with regulating soil moisture and drainage. If you want to be sure that plants will survive year-round, this cloud-inspired self-watering system is an excellent one to give or receive as a gift for those with not-so-green thumbs.
