Pots of Growing Fun - Stewart Self-watering Herb Pot
We’re approaching that exciting time of year again – despite
the late frosts the crocuses are beginning to appear, the trees are beginning
to bud and my mind turns to all things gardening. While it might still be a
little early to properly begin working in the garden it is the perfect time to
begin the gardening year by planting up a few indoor crops of herbs and the
Stewart Self-watering Herb Pot is fantastic place to start.
Cleverly designed
with a skirt of absorbent cloth to feed water up to the base of each of the
four mini-pots that make up the whole, the Stewart Self-watering Herb Pot is
ideal for all experienced ‘window-siller killers’. We’ve all done it; carefully
created the perfect kitchen herb platter, gone away for the weekend and come
home to a sorry droopy mess of brown leaves and withered stalks. The water well
should last for at least a fortnight, even in the hottest of weather, and the
separate inners allow you to chop and change your crops independently without
disrupting the other plants. Being made from plastic, the look isn’t overly
classy, and yet I rather like it – the white and green combo brightens up my
gloomy kitchen window (my view is an attractive wooden fence, so all
distractions are welcome!) and being
wipe-clean it’s not too difficult to maintain.
The Stewart Self-watering Herb Pot is £9.99 and available
from all good garden centres. For more information visit: http://www.stewart-garden.com.
