Sky Planter, Hanging Gardens of Boskke

When one hears of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, perhaps imagine land floating in the air as the peculiar moon Pandora in Avatar or huge hanging parterres: a scenario that would not indifferent, but remain to the imagination. In fact, the terrarium lamp by designer Kristýna Pojerová approaches this poetic landscape image floating before us, or Sky Planter pots.

For fans of urban gardening , the New Zealand company Boskke has devised a system of pots of clean lines and rounded, designed to be suspended from the ceiling or wall. In the living room or bedroom, these boxes can accommodate decorative plants such as ivy, geranium, or orchids, while in the kitchen can form a true garden of herbs from mint dill or thyme, to even strawberries. Hanging wall or ceiling at different heights, different volumes and colors of plants, we can convert corners of the house hanging gardens for the enjoyment of all.

Sky Planter These pots are available in different sizes to accommodate different types of plants you want to have in our home. The find online white ceramic with sizes of 12, 14 and 19cms high from 26 € (U.S. $ 34) or recycled plastic 13, 19 and 25cms from 19 € ($ 25).

The commissioning of the plant site is done very easily as shown in the video: just transfer our factory from one container to another, place the grill and cover that will prevent it from falling earth and the contents of the pot and where we want to suspend it in a well lit spot. Once hung from the ceiling or wall, the Sky Planter, which is designed to that irrigation is effected by the top, with a deposit account that stores water and provides little by little to the plant by a period of approximately two weeks. This striking design not only saves space on the floor or shelves, but also gives greater prominence to our plants and decorative effect.
