    Comments about Watering Bulb:

    Was looking forward to the arrival of this product. Now I can't find a place I even want to use it. Its cute and does add a little color to the lower portion of a potted plant but there's no sense using it for what its intended.....the watre just flows right through it within minutes.

    Comments about Watering Bulb:

    I bought 7 watering bulbs for my house plants over 6 months ago and I love them. These are wonderful if you go on vacation or if you are forgetful when it comes to watering your plants. I'm thinking about buying some for my outdoor potted plants as well.

    Comments about Watering Bulb:

    The instructions were vague but usage really self-explanatary. Great for indoor potted plants that need regular moisture. Makes frequent watering very convenient. It would be nice if it came in more colors.
