Product Details
Keep pot plants watered while you're away — these bird-shaped self watering spikes push into the soil and release water slowly as it dries, in packs of 4 up to 48.
Fill the bird, push the spike into the pot, and the soil draws water out gradually instead of all at once. It's a simple way to cover a long weekend, a busy week, or the indoor plant that always gets forgotten — and the bird shape makes it a feature rather than something you'd hide behind the pot.

Watering tip: water the plant normally first so the soil is damp, then insert the filled spike. Pushed into bone-dry soil, it empties almost straight away; into damp soil, it releases slowly over days.
Why Plant Lovers Use Self Watering Spikes
- Slow-release watering - water drains out gradually as the soil dries
- Holiday cover - keeps pots going over a long weekend or short trip
- Self watering spikes for indoor plants - and outdoor pots too
- Cute bird design - blue and red birds that look good in the pot
- Reusable PVC - rinse, refill and use again
Care & Use
Rinse between refills to stop algae building up. How long a spike lasts depends on the plant, pot size, soil and weather — check how quickly it empties in your conditions before relying on it for a longer trip.
Please allow a small measurement tolerance due to manual measurement, and slight colour variation due to different monitor settings.
Where They Work Best
Small and medium pots of herbs, houseplants and flowers on windowsills and balconies — exactly the plants that dry out fastest when nobody's home.
They also make a cheerful gift for someone who's new to looking after plants, alongside a potted herb or succulent.
