Demi Garden Bed: how self-watering works
how self-watering works
Pour water into the built-in reservoir—roots draw what they need.
• No overwatering, no dry soil, no guesswork
• Effortless, balanced hydration
Two drainage levels keep things in check: bottom holes for runoff, higher holes direct excess water into the reservoir so soil never gets waterlogged. Refill every few days, depending on plants and weather.
mindful moment: Watch the soil darken as it absorbs water—pause, breathe, notice the little changes in your garden.

Frequently asked questions
Most self‑watering garden beds only need refilling every few days, depending on plant type, weather, and growing conditions.
They’re great for vegetables, herbs, and ornamental plants that benefit from steady moisture, especially in patios, balconies, and urban spaces.
The self‑watering garden bed has two sets of drainage holes: bottom holes for full runoff, and higher holes that let extra water—like rain or overwatering—settle into the reservoir without drowning the soil.
To use the self-watering feature, use the provided drainage plugs to seal the bottom holes.
