In a world where time is scarce and sustainability matters more than ever, LECHUZA planters are rewriting the rules of plant care. Designed and engineered in Germany, these sleek, self-watering planters are the intelligent—and elegant—solution to keeping plants healthy with minimal effort. Whether you're a seasoned plant lover or just starting out, LECHUZA brings out the best in your plants—and takes the stress off your shoulders. Welcome to the next generation of plant care.
What makes LECHUZA different?
Traditional pots often leave plants at the mercy of inconsistent watering - either too much or too little. This leads to drooping leaves, root rot, or crispy, thirsty plants. LECHUZA solves this problem at the root with a built-in sub-irrigation system that waters plants from below, exactly when and how they need it.
Here’s how it works:
- Water reservoir: each planter contains a hidden reservoir that stores water below the soil line
- Water level indicator: a visual guide shows when it's time to top-up, no guesswork needed
- Capillary action: through a wick or mineral substrate, water is drawn upwards only as the plant needs it
- Plant-driven hydration: plants take control of their own watering schedule, so you don’t have to
Freedom to live (and leave the house)
LECHUZA planters can keep your plants perfectly hydrated for up to 12 weeks, depending on the plant type and environment. That means no more plant-sitters, rushed watering before holidays, or returning home to crispy casualties after a heatwave.
They're also ideal for:
- Families on school holidays
- Those prone to forgetting their watering days (you’re not alone)
Smart, stylish, and sustainable
Sustainability isn’t an afterthought - it’s a core value at LECHUZA. Each planter is made in a state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly facility in Germany, where:
- Over 70% of the water used in manufacturing is collected rainwater
- 100% of internal plastic waste is reused in production
- Planter liners are made from 100% recycled material
- LECHUZA products are fully recyclable
This focus on sustainability continues into the design. With LECHUZA’s efficient self-watering system, you use less water overall, helping you conserve a precious natural resource while keeping your plants happy.
Designed for indoors and outdoors
LECHUZA planters are built to last, made from premium, UV-resistant, and frost-proof materials that stand up to all seasons. A smart drain plug allows excess rainwater to escape if used outdoors, protecting your plant from waterlogging during wet weather.
And with sleek, award-winning designs in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colours, they look just as good in a living room as they do on a sun-soaked terrace.
A substrate that outperforms soil
Every LECHUZA planter comes with a starter supply of LECHUZA-PON, a mineral-based substrate that’s cleaner, more stable, and longer-lasting than traditional soil. It delivers optimal drainage, stores nutrients, and helps prevent pests and mould.
But that’s just scratching the surface
