Water is life for so many plants, and in hydroponics it's often the delivery method of water, oxygen, and nutrients. Whenever available, we recommend using Reverse Osmosis or other filtered water. Municipal tap water in many locals works great as well.
Full of all the good stuff - these Hydroponic Nutrient Drops like to be shaken, not stirred, to ensure an even distribution of essential nutrients with every dose.
Away with measuring cups, scales, and expensive measurement devices. Hello to simple, efficient nutrient drops. As easy as 1....2....3.... for happy plants.
Propagations, houseplants, even leafy vegetables are all going to thank you. Whether you're growing in a Modern Botanical vase or another home setup, the plant options are nearly endless. Have fun growing!

Water, Nutrients, and Care
This is not your average prop product - we've done thorough testing to ensure houseplants can grow in our vases for years without having to be re-potted
Growing in water is flexible and forgiving. Top off water weekly and replace it monthly. The fresh water will replenish the oxygen - making root rot and watering stress a thing of the past.
Experience your plants growing leaves, flowers, and roots through the course of the year - all with a minimal care routine. Add water, a few drops of nutrients, and watch them thrive.
Here's a Care Guide to Growing in Water if you'd like to learn more.
Is growing plants in water seriously that easy?
Yes! We love planting in water because of how clean and easy it is. To keep your plants alive, simply ensure that they’re kept in an area without much temperature variation, refill the water every 2 weeks, and a monthly couple drops of nutrients. A full care guide can be found here.
How do I find cuttings for your products?
Sourcing plants is one of the most exciting parts of owning our Grow Frames and Hangers. The first places we generally look for cuttings are existing houseplants, swapping with friends and family, and buying plants to use for cuttings from local nurseries. Additionally, we'll be selling cuttings as an optional add-on from late March - October if you'd like our curated selection.
For more info on finding plants to grow in our products, check outthis guide here.
Each frame comes with a mounting guide to ensure easy hanging on any wall. Tape the guide to the wall where you'd like your frame and plant(s) to hang. Follow the simple instructions, and voila!
For a step-by-step walkthrough, here's a video of Modern Botanical co-founder, Conrad, going through the mounting process in our San Diego woodshop:
How long will my plants survive in water?
Plants purchased from Modern Botanical should stay healthy for at least a year. Beyond that, it varies by variety, but some plants, like the monstera deliciosa, have been known to survive for over a decade in water. Plant selection is key, which is why we only sell plants that thrive in water.
Nice craftsmanship and plants are nice as well! I did have one that arrived poorly and it was replaced.
Love these!
I purchased three frames with three plants. The plants arrived first. Frames arrived a few days later. The two of the three plants look a little rough but I am hoping now that the frames and plant food has arrived, the plants will perk up and take off.
They make it SO easy to hang and it's beautiful! Ingenious product. I want a wall full of them now!
These are really nice. My husband said to buy more. Sweet!
My plants arrived on Thursday. I got everything hung and set up on Saturday. Today is Wednesday and there are only a couple of plants looking a little distressed (and understandably so after shipping) - all the others are as chipper as they were when they arrived. I'm anxious to see how soon they'll start rooting and leaving :) The frames are as easy to hang as they are pretty to look at. Customer service's responsiveness is exceptional. I just wish I had more walls free to hang more plants on!

It's as described and beautifully made.
I love that there is a beautiful way to root/grow plants in water. It's easy and lovely! I had no trouble mounting these on the wall.
Was so impressed with what I got as a gift. It can stand alone (what I wanted) or mounted. So bought 2 more. Quality is excellent and I believe the price to be very fair for the work and beautiful wood these pieces are made of.
Love my little tubes, they look great in my office and bedroom
