Hanging Planter Tessaro — Self-Watering with Reservoir and Wicks

Make room for more greenery without crowding your shelves with Tessaro, a hanging planter and self-watering planter in one. Its rope-suspended design brings plants into view while a matching removable water reservoir sits beneath the planting section.

Wicks connect the reservoir to the potting mix, carrying moisture upward through the base. Unlike a standard drainage saucer, the lower section stores water for the wick system and detaches for refilling and cleaning. Choose a plant and growing mix suited to wick watering, and check the reservoir and soil regularly because water use varies with the plant, conditions and pot size.

A basket-weave pattern, diagonal ridges, raised dots and crackle-style relief give the rounded body a different texture from every angle. Let trailing foliage frame the patterned sides near a window, or use the Outdoor version in a sheltered spot above your patio. Secure the planter to a support suitable for its full watered weight and keep it within easy reach for care.

Choose Indoor in PLA or Outdoor in ASA, with colors from the palette for your chosen material. The selected size refers to the usable inner diameter, not the overall outside width. Each piece is made to order in your selected size and color. Listing photos show the design rather than a fixed color and may show different sizes or color combinations.

How to set up

1. Moisten the wicks and suitable potting mix, then arrange the wicks on the side and center supports so they remain in contact with the mix.
2. Pass the wick ends through the base openings so they reach the bottom of the reservoir and remain in contact with water; keep the water level below the planting base.
3. Securely reattach the reservoir before hanging, then check the soil and water level regularly. For the Outdoor version, remove excess water after rainfall.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Your Tessaro hanging planter includes a matching removable water reservoir, specialized self-watering wicks, and two hanging ropes. These accessories are included with both drainage options.

The wicks are made from a specially designed absorbent material that carries moisture from the reservoir into the potting mix.

UNDERSTANDING THE DRAINAGE OPTIONS

The drainage option refers to the internal planting base above the reservoir—not the outer bottom of the assembled planter. Both versions use the same wick-fed watering system.

• NO DRAINAGE — WICK OPENINGS ONLY
The planting base has small openings for the wicks, without the additional drainage slots. This keeps the planting base mostly closed while allowing the wicks to connect the potting mix to the water below. “No drainage” does not mean there are no wick openings.

• WITH DRAINAGE — WICK OPENINGS + DRAINAGE SLOTS
The planting base has wick openings plus additional curved slots. These provide extra passages for excess water to drain into the reservoir, especially when watering from above.

In both versions, the lower reservoir has a closed bottom and holds water for the wicks. The drainage slots do not open directly to the outside. Check the reservoir after watering and remove excess water to keep the water level below the planting base.

HANGING ROPE LENGTH

• 4″ and 5″ planters: two ropes, each 59.1″ (1.5 m) long.
• 6″, 7″, 8″ and 9″ planters: two ropes, each 78.7″ (2 m) long.

Lengths are measured before tying. The finished hanging height depends on how the ropes are tied.

A ceiling or wall hook for hanging the planter is not included.
