Shelving that automatically waters your plants, even when you forget

It might not be as heartbreaking as saying goodbye to a pet, but no one wants to see their plants die—it’s a sign of failure. And since using a device that reminds you to water them is useless if you’re never home, this simple set of shelving will serve as your horticultural assistant, keeping your plants watered—and alive—for up to an entire month without intervention.

It sounds too good to be true, but it’s not. After all, entire jungles and forests thrive without mankind’s intervention, they just need a reliable source of water.

With the help of gravity, water is pulled down through a tube that keeps your vegetation hydrated with minimal intervention needed.
