Retro Plant Terrarium with Wooden Stand – 3 Bulb Vases

Cute. Easy to put together

I recently started propagating houseplants, so I ordered this after getting a little tired of using mason and pickle jars from the pantry. After assembly, I added some water and plant cuttings and placed it near a window that receives regular light throughout the day. So far, so good.

Pros: Assembles quickly and easily. All hardware and fasteners are included, along with illustrated instructions. It looks beautiful and is a lovely addition to just about any area in the home. The natural wood has a warm, neutral look and blends in with any decor. It can be used to propagate a variety of plants. A small watering bottle is included that allows you to top off the water in the jars with precision, even while the cuttings are still inside.

Cons: The glass feels fairly thin / fragile, so you need to be extra careful not to scratch or crack the tubes. If you break one (or more) you will likely need to order a whole new set as the jars are not (to my knowledge) sold separately. Also, while the instructions are fairly straightforward, the illustrations could have been a bit larger and more detailed.

This is a great little kit for the budding gardener in your life or yourself.

This is a simple, but useful vase for flowers, water plants, or propagating plant cuttings in water. The assembly is a little tricky, but manageable. The base is adjustable and its width is perfect for a window sill. I use it for rooting plant cuttings, as the large bulb and small neck hold up the cutting so the end is suspended in the water. If you were going to use it for growing plants hydroponically, you might run into issues with the small neck being bisected by the metal rod that has to go through the middle of the neck of each vase- getting the plant out might require disassembly if the plant had grown around either side of the rod. For the same reason, it would be difficult to use for propagating a leaf or other cutting without a stem (spider plant baby, for example) because you can’t fill the vase all the way to the top because of the holes in the sides of the neck for the rod. But its a cute, handy little triple vase any plant person could put to use.

It looks so good, I could find some water plants to use on it and they give a cute touch to my kitchen. It fits good in the space I keep it.

It's too easy to assemble, I did it in a few minutes. The glass thickness seems good but one of the jars came cracked, nothing that affects it function but I think it's important to say it and the seller takes care of packaging and transportation to deliver them.

For the price it's just good and I like it.

I'm giving this five stars (even though there is one minorly irritating design decision in the way the glass bottles are mounted) because it has been perfect thus far. The stand is solid and not flimsy, the glass bottles are reasonably thick (not to the point of being excessively heavy, but also not so thin as to prove an issue for shattering).

It's also a great look to see it propagating basil and such with the root progress being visible on a glance. I really like that part.

It's easy-ish to put together, which ties back in to the odd design decision mentioned previously. The rod that the glass bottles are supported from actually passes through holes in the glass, with rubber stops to keep the bottles from sloshing around much, but it makes it to where if you need to remove the middle bottle (for cleaning or whatever), you have to remove one of the other bottles to do so. It would be nice if the support bar had some mechanism for snapping the bottles in place as opposed to passing through holes in the glass.
