Most people water their plants from the top, though plants actually absorb water from the bottom up. Marly Pots are complete with active water reservoirs that sit at the bottom of the pot, to be drawn from as needed through a process called capillary action. 

Once the water has been absorbed and is able to reach the plant's leaves, the water can then be used for photosynthesis and other essential plant processes. By allowing the plant to absorb the amount of water it needs, when it needs it — we are eliminating the potential for over/under-watering that usually occurs while growing.

Marly is made from a combination of virgin and recycled HDPE (High Density Poly Ethylene). Our pots are highly durable and can easily be recycled in a variety of applications. The root basket inside the pot is made from sustainably sourced recycled aluminum.

Not yet! However, after you order your Marly, we will connect you with local nurseries to help fill your pot, no matter where you are.

Keep your Marly wherever is most convenient for you. Our watering system is designed to sustain healthy plant growth indoors and outdoors. Just make sure you place your planter within conditions that are most suitable to whatever you choose to grow.

Each Marly comes with a detailed care card that includes information on your planter and the best conditions for optimal growth.
