Terra Cotta AquaCone® Watering Devices are an ingenious and attractive way to provide moisture directly to plant roots. Simply fill a wine bottle (or similar bottle) with water. Place the AquaCone over the top of the bottle, then tip the bottle and cone upside down and place in the soil near a plant. Water will seep slowly into the soil through the porous terra cotta and the small holes in the base.

Pros
- Attractive
- Clever Solution
Cons
- very fragile
Best Uses
- Hydrangeas
This is a great way to water plants deep but I'm not sure that it works as advertised. Each time I fill a bottle full of water the plants drink it all. But, then again, I've got very thirsty Hydrangeas. Also, the instructions warn that these are fragile and they are. I broke one the first day. Still, it's a clever solution and a reasonable price. I will buy more.

Best Uses
Using to supply extra water to fruit trees. This way the plants get water deeper to their roots. The colored bottles look nice too.

Pros
- GREAT Idea
Cons
- Terra Cotta - Fragile
Best Uses
- Watering Plants
I purchased this in conjunction with the colored bottles to water my indoor plants. I chipped one as I took it from the packging. I was still able to use it for its intended purpose. The added color from the bottles is something fun to add. You could use your own wine bottle.

Pros
Cons
Best Uses
These do not work. The water runs out within seconds. Even if the terra cotta was wet and the plant dirt was moist. Don't waste your money. There are better options to water your plants.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Pros
- It looks cute
Cons
- Dumps Water All At Once
Best Uses
- To look good
I thought this would water my plants a little at a time but all the water runs right in
Pros
- Conviente
Cons
- Water Drips To Fast
Best Uses
Used in an agapanthas quite root bound, so the water driped to fast. But still the did the job
I think they would be better without the 2 tiny wholes in the bottom. The clay they are made of should be enough to leach the water into the soil. The holes take the water out of the bottle to quickly. I'm going to plug the holes up on a couple to see if I like the performance better.
