FAQs

Can I use these for outdoor plants?

Yes, they are suitable for both indoor houseplants and outdoor patio containers.

How long will one full globe last?

Under normal conditions, a filled sphere can provide hydration for up to 14 days.

Do I need to clean them?

Yes, periodic cleaning with warm water helps prevent mineral deposits and clogs.

Are they dishwasher safe?

It is recommended to hand wash them with warm, soapy water to avoid accidental breakage.

How many globes come in a set?

The set includes six vibrant watering globes.

Troubleshooting

The globe empties too quickly

Check if the globe was pushed too deep or if the soil is extremely loose/sandy. Use a more compact potting mix.

Water is not coming out

The opening is likely clogged with soil. Remove the globe, rinse the stem, and ensure the pathway is clear.

Globe falls over

Ensure the angle of insertion is near 45 to 90 degrees and pushed deep enough into the root ball for stability.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Prevents both over-watering and under-watering
Stylish multicolor design adds visual appeal
Extremely simple, non-electronic setup
Helps sustain plants while you are away from home

Cons

Requires manual refilling once the globe is empty
May clog if fine soil enters the opening
Not suitable for very large planters that require massive volumes of water
Glass material requires careful handling to prevent breakage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Avilo spheres, simply fill the globe with water. To prevent soil from entering the tube and creating a blockage, you can wrap a small piece of muslin or a coffee filter over the opening before inserting it into the dirt. When placing the globe, ensure you dig a small pilot hole with your finger or a pencil first; pushing the glass stem directly into packed, dry soil can cause the glass to crack or the opening to clog.

For care, periodically rinse the spheres with warm water and a mild detergent to remove mineral buildup. Ensure they are fully dried before storage if you plan to keep them away for a season.
