PerkyPod – better than a self watering pot
PerkyPod – better than a self watering pot
PerkyPod is the clever alternative to a self-watering pot that takes the guesswork out of watering, keeps your floors clean and gives your plants a beautiful home – indoors or out.
Australian-made and award-winning, PerkyPod’s unique drainage and water catchment system keeps roots happy, prevents over-watering and stops dirty, smelly leaks from ever reaching your floors, decks or carpets.
The PerkyPod is available with wheels for ease of movement for loads up to 75kg. It's also available without wheels, which you can pair with our 30cm Plant Glider (90kg capacity) for the ultimate set-up: healthy plants, easy movement, and no more heavy lifting of your heaviest plants.
Why you’ll love PerkyPod
If you’re tired of:
- Droopy leaves and pest-prone, stressed plants
- Ugly pots with cracks, stains and salt marks
- Time-consuming watering and clean-ups
- Saucer spills, mud streaks and wet rings on your floors
…PerkyPod was made for you.
Its smart internal design drains excess water into a hidden catchment drawer. Empty it when you’re ready, or let the water be recycled at your next watering. Your floors (and your mental load) will thank you.
Perfect partner for Plant Glider
PerkyPod is sized to sit perfectly on our 30cm Plant Glider, so you can create a lush, mobile plant set-up that glides with a gentle push.
Place a PerkyPod (no wheels) on the 30cm Plant Glider 90kg for:
- A wheel set up with a higher load capacity (PerkyPod capacity with wheels is 75kg)
- Extra stability in high-wind areas
- Smoother movement over surfaces with bigger gaps
Choose a PerkyPod with wheels if you:
- Want simple roll-and-go movement on flatter surfaces
- Still want the benefits of PerkyPod’s self-watering and catchment system
Either way, your plants stay perky – and your back gets a break.
How does it work?
- Soak your plant
- Water drains while you put your feet up
- Overflow funnels into the water catchment drawer - no puddles
- Empty drawer (recycle onto another plant!) or leave for the next watering session
- Optional hidden wheels keep it stylish
