Hydro-Mats
Cut Your Watering Chores by 80%
When we first tested these water-absorbing mats, the results seemed too good to be true. So we asked some of our customers to try them, and they gave Hydro-Mats rave reviews! Each individual mat holds a full quart of water, wicking it up almost instantly and then releasing it slowly, so you water weekly instead of daily.
- Mats can be cut to fit your container or hanging basket
What Our Customers Say
"I have them in my hanging planters and my larger containers as well. The planters that I have them in only need half the watering as others."
Barbara, Acme PA

Comments about Hydro-Mats:
I used up my supply this year, & purchased a supply for next year for my outdoor railing planter, hanging pots, etc. It really helps keep the water for the plants to prosper, esp. during this drought. My plants remain perky all day.
I just didn't appreciate paying all that postage for such a light item.

If this works as good as it written about it will be worth it's weight in gold. when I remember to bring siccors out with me it cuts well and easy to use in the bottom of pots. I have a teried pot that has small space of the root ball of plants and so far the plants are surviving in the sun.

Comments about Hydro-Mats:
I don't water my potted flowers every day, and we live in an area that gets a lot of wind. I tried the hydro-mats this summer. They seem to help hold the moisture in the coco lined hanging planters. I always wondered what professionals used in hanging planters that always look so nice. I'm pleased so far!
