This Is How It Works

Tevaplanter uses a unique porous ceramic technology that holds water inside and gradually releases it through its outer surface. This provides steady moisture directly to the roots, allowing plants to grow without soil. The design mimics natural conditions where plants grow on rocks and trees, creating a clean, low-maintenance way to bring nature indoors.

Learn how to grow on tevaplanter

1

Add seeds or plants

Begin your journey by attaching plants or spreading seeds directly onto the vessel's exterior—no dirt, no digging, just contact.

2

Fill the Reservoir

Pour water into the hollow center of the vessel. The patented porous material will slowly wick moisture outwards, providing consistent hydration to the roots.

3

Watch it Thrive

Sit back and observe nature at work. Over time, the roots will grip the ceramic surface, transforming the planter into a lush, living sculpture.

Grateful for this!

Grateful for this! I love the design the idea and plants. I saw the idea on Kickstarter and invested immediately. Ordered two new ones and can't wait!

Just Incredible!

Just incredible, after several years of waiting I received my tevaplanter. The wait was worth it!! It's well thought out, the result is just great!!

Beautiful Design, Perfect Results

The planter is beautiful and working perfectly. I also bought one to make a gift, it has created the surprise effect I was expecting ;)

A Living Piece of Design

I love how this turns plants into part of my space, not just something sitting in a pot. Every time someone sees it, they ask about it.

Thriving with Minimal Care

The plants look healthier than ever and the setup is incredibly easy to maintain. Beautiful and effortless.

1

Sowing

Sowing is a method for growing plants from seeds. The process of sowing seeds requires a short preparation before the magic of nature unfolds right before your eye in astonishing details. It is a great visual education on the first stages of a plant's life and suitable for curious children.

Plant plugs

Plant plugs are young plants in their early stage of development. We really like using plugs because they are small and can be placed all around the Tevaplanter surface to give you a beautiful result right away - and look as if they've been there all along.

3

Cuttings

The Cutting method allows new plants to grow from a single stem or node taken from an existing plant. The cutting is placed directly on the Tevaplanter, where moisture is continuously supplied to the roots as they form. Once established, the cutting develops into an independent plant. This method works especially well for vining, trailing, and fast-rooting species.

4

Mother Plant

The Mother plant method keeps new plants attached to the parent, which supplies water and nutrients until they form independent roots. Once strong enough, the connection is cut, creating two plants. This method works best for climbing and creeping varieties that root from joints and stems.

5

Replanting

Replanting is a method of transferring a plant from a planter to Tevaplanter. The process requires carefully removing the plant and gently removing soil from the root system, and finally mounting and securing the plant roots onto your Tevaplanter.

Fern Spores

The method for growing ferns from spores on the tevaplanter is to wait for the fern spores to be ripe and then rub or sprinkle them onto the moist tevaplanter surface. It's important to keep the surface moist throughout the entire process. It may take months and even years for spores to grow into a mature fern on the tevaplanter.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Want to learn more? Read our full list of FAQs

What makes tevaplanter unique?

The tevaplanter is unique because it uses a specially engineered porous ceramic that slowly releases water, letting plants grow on the outside without soil.

Just fill the inner chamber and place seeds or plants on the surface. Roots naturally cling and drink from the moisture within. It’s durable, non-toxic, and designed to create the ideal low-maintenance home for plant growth.

What's In The Box?

- Tevaplanter vessel (porous ceramic planter)
- Ceramic lid
- Ceramic Base
- Rubber Bands (for plant mounting)
- Getting-started guide

How do plants get their nutrients or fertilizer?

Plants on the tevaplanter get their nutrients through liquid fertilizer sprayed directly onto the roots on the outside surface. The water inside provides moisture, and the fertilizer you spray gives them the nutrients they need to grow.


Do NOT add fertilizer into the tevaplanter water chamber.

What kinds of plants can I grow?

You can grow a wide variety of plants on the tevaplanter, especially ones that enjoy steady moisture on their roots. Popular choices include:

  • Mosses & microgreens (chia, watercress, flax, mustard, buckwheat)
  • Orchids (like Paphiopedilum, which grow very well)
  • Ferns
  • Vining plants
  • Small tropical plants
  • Aroids (certain species adapt nicely)
How long can a plant live for on the tevaplanter

A plant can live on the tevaplanter for years as long as it’s a species suited to this style of growing and you keep up with basic care (refilling water and spraying nutrients).

Some plants like mosses, ferns, vining species, and Paphiopedilum orchids can thrive long-term and stay healthy for multiple years on a single tevaplanter.

There’s no fixed lifespan, the plant will keep growing as long as it’s the right type and its needs are met.
