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.
New packing is terrific! Arrived very quickly. Soil is compacted so it takes a while to loosen it. I put them in a bowl with water for a day and then continued to loosen it before putting in a vase with spring water. Love the ease of care and unique look.
This is my first time growing plants in pure water so I've been a little nervous. It's been over a month and they look great! I totally recommend them even if you're an inexperienced plant grower!
This was the most perfectly packaged plant I’ve ever received. She was so snug and came out just as stunning as I’d hoped.
I love my 8 plant starter set ! They looks great on my wall together with the frames!
One plant did not fare well on the cross country trip, but customer service was awesome and replacements were sent right away! All are doing fine adapting to life on the West Coast!
Zero complaints
Beautiful and full plant
Loved it. And tutorial video on how to prep and clean the plants was very helpful.
I love them! They have transformed my wall into something beautiful.
These plants arrived in a timely manner packaged brilliantly so they could make it to me safely <3 I loved the surprise of having 6 new plants and being able to cultivate them into their new habitats! They started thriving as soon as I placed them in their forever homes and perked up with the light (: No regrets here and will buy from them again!
