About this model
<p>A stylish pot designed especially for carnivorous plants, with a few useful features to make caring for them easier.</p><p>The bottom section works as a protected water reservoir, keeping the water covered and helping reduce evaporation. Since carnivorous plants usually need distilled water, rainwater, or other low-mineral water, this also helps you waste less of the good stuff.</p><p>The plant sits in the central pot, while the upper section works as a sun shield around it. This helps reduce direct sunlight hitting the pot itself and keeps the root zone from heating up too much on hot sunny days.</p><p>It was designed with carnivorous plants in mind, especially <strong>Dionaea (Venus flytrap), Drosera and Sarracenia</strong>, but of course you can use it with any plant or setup you like.</p><p><strong>Features:</strong></p><ul><li><p>Integrated water reservoir</p></li><li><p>Helps reduce water evaporation</p></li><li><p>Helps save distilled or rainwater</p></li><li><p>Sun shield around the inner pot</p></li><li><p>Helps reduce overheating of the roots and growing medium</p></li><li><p>Removable central pot</p></li><li><p>Designed for carnivorous plants</p></li><li><p><strong>Super easy to print</strong></p></li><li><p>Recommended UV-resistant materials for outdoor use</p></li><li><p>Stylish design :)</p></li><li><p>Use it however you like!</p></li></ul><p></p>
