Installation so easy your Grandma could do it!
Our planters hang in 1 minute or less, and come with everything you need for installation. We're confident that Modern Botanical plants and frames are the easiest, no-hassle way to introduce plants into your space.
Add water. Add nutrients. Find good lighting. And watch roots develop, leaves grow, and flowers bloom.
What's the secret? Growing in water is a favorite trick of many green thumbs. It's all about selecting the right plants that grow roots which utilize the oxygen in water, similar to how they would when grown in soil or other similar mediums.
For those plants, water delivers oxygen, moisture, and nutrients to efficiently grow houseplants with minimal upkeep.
Since day one, we wanted to build Modern Botanical around socially conscious and environmentally friendly business practices. Our hand-made line of grow-in-water products reflect these beliefs.
Each grow frame is handcrafted in our San Diego woodshop. Materials include responsibly sourced domestic hard woods, all-natural finishing products to avoid the petrol-based standards of our industry, and real cork which is harvested without the the cutting-down of trees. We look forward to evolving our business practices for the better as we grow.

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.

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.
Very simple and beautiful!
Shasta Planter Set
I love the wall planter and the plants have all arrived beautifully packaged and they perk right up after a few days in the water. I will be purchasing again!
hi i received my plants and vase , however the vases are gorgeous but the plants arrived dead and brown .
The plants and hangers look great on my walls. Customer service is amazing
I bought the set with plants. The frames are absolutely beautiful but I was a bit disappointed with the plants. Half of the plants did not survive.
This is my second purchase and we just them. Easy to maintain, beautiful live art work right on our wall.
These are amazing. Love the look. Good quality. 2 of my plants died early on and they sent extra free of charge. Will definitely be purchasing more!
Right out of the box the product quality is just so clear. This business clearly takes pride in their work and it really shows. The hangers add some "life" to our place and look amazing. Their instructions and printed template made the hanging on the wall process easy. Plus, the customer service interactions I had were so helpful - these folks are a class act.
The only challenge I've had is that some of the plants I ordered had root rot when they arrived (probably since I live on the east coast, so long shipping route). I've trimmed / hydrogen peroxided them and TBD on whether or not they'll all make it, but it's nice to know the company will ship me new ones if these don't end up surviving. Others are already doing well and setting up new roots in the water!
I rarely write reviews, but felt like I needed to for these folks since it's such a great product and since they have such great customer service!
The wall hangers look & function as well as I expected. Big problem though. They're so compact it's impossible not to see room EVERYWHERE in the house for more. I've bought six & will be getting at least six more.
