Recently we came across the Sky Planter. This award-winning plant pot allows you to hang a plant upside down from the ceiling, instead of placing it on the ground. It’s a new take on the traditional potted plant, and not only an original and stylish one! In this article we’ll tell you more about it.

Sky Planter
The Sky Planter, from the brand Boskke, isn’t just a stylish upside down plant pot. It’s also very handy, because the pot contains the Boskke Slo-Flo irrigation system. This provides your plant with water for up to two weeks at a time. Ideal for people who often forget to water their plants, or for when you go on holiday! The plant and soil are held in place with a locking disc and mesh. Once hung, the soil compacts above the mesh, so it can’t fall out.
The plant pot is available in two types: one is made of stoneware ceramic, the other one of recycled plastic. You can choose between three sizes, and two colors: white or black. The ceramic version is also available in the color burnt terracotta.
The orchid is a very suitable plant to place in the Sky Planter. Check the video below, to see how it works:
