Sick of never-ending chores, sad plants and messy leaks? You just want plants to bring joy to your life. It's time to eliminate the burden and guesswork.
PerkyPod's internal drainage and water catchment system is a game-changer. It's the biggest plant pot innovation since self-watering plant pots were invented in the 1970s! And it works much, MUCH better.
Our foolproof system drains excess water into a removable catchment drawer which can be tipped out and recycled anytime that suits you. Or leave it there for the next watering session. Your floors (and to-do list) will thank you.
PerkyPod is suited to all plants, whether inside your home or outside in your garden, porch or balcony. Use it for ornamental houseplants or edibles such as herbs, fruit and vegetables. You can now grow large plants in places you never thought you'd be able to, and replace all your artificial plants with real ones because PerkyPod avoids the usual problems such as puddles and heavy lifting.
If your plants like to be mobile, add PerkyPod's hidden castor wheel system. Featuring a patented Omnia Wheel multi-directional castor (Australian-owned and made) with 360° turn mobility, keeping your plants on the go has never been easier. What a perk!
"As a landscaper of 30+ years, I was very impressed during my PerkyPod demo. Put simply, it's a game-changer. No more overflow from pots onto my floors. And now I can move plants around easily with the wheel design. I'll be using PerkyPod for my own plants and recommending them to my clients." David, Lakeside Garden Creations, Newcastle

1. Soak your plant

3. Overflow funnels into water catchment drawer - no puddles
4. Empty drawer (recycle onto another plant!) or leave until the next watering session
5. Optional, hidden wheels for easy manoeuvring
Like people, plants can be complicated.
It takes a lot of love, care and attention to keep them happy.
Are they getting enough water?
Are they getting enough light?
Are they mad at you for what you said earlier?
Put simply, plants can be needy.
That’s why we’ve innovated a new kind of pot that uncomplicates plant care and takes the guesswork out of keeping your plants alive.
PerkyPod has been built with sustainability as a core value.
- It contains recycled materials and is recyclable
- UV-stabilised for indoors or outdoors durability
- Responsible water use through recycling
PerkyPod's drainage and water catchment makes lush plants easier than ever:
- Reduce your carbon footprint through grow-your-own herbs, fruit and vegetables, even on apartment balconies and small terraces.
- Reduce waste from plant deaths while avoiding artificial plants.
- Bring plants into your home and outdoor areas to promote a connection with nature.

Most plants enjoy a really good soaking all over the surface area of the soil until water starts seeping out the bottom. You'll hear the dripping! Otherwise, how will you know that every root has had a drink?
Next, be brave and DON'T water again until the soil dries out. Start with watering every 7-10 days and adjust from there. Try 14 days in winter. Test dryness by sticking a finger into the soil or use a moisture sensor. There are many variables: type of plant, root structure, weather, indoors or outdoors location, extant soil dampness, etc. However, the more-water-less-often approach is the key to healthy soil and root ecosystems.
Plus, you can water your plants without having to move them elsewhere like a sink or lawn, and no waiting for drips to finish before returning them. Reducing your plant chores will lighten your mental and physical load… what a perk!
PerkyPod has a 40cm diameter, is 42cm tall and weighs roughly 4kg.
We will develop more options in future but this initial size was chosen to strike the balance between being large enough that most people would not want to lift, whilst being compact enough to look good inside or outside in a garden, balcony or patio.
The water drawer has nearly 900mL capacity – so you can give your plants plenty to drink without worrying about overflow!
Start with giving your plants no more than 1 litre of water and see how much drains into the drawer. You’ll soon learn what each of your plants needs to stay perky.
If you have an overflow situation, do not fear. The internal parts of PerkyPod are made of plastic so spills are easy to wipe up.
We hope so, one day soon! For now we just have white PerkyPods but we hope to include other colours in our next production run.
As a start-up business, we have begun with one size as our market research indicates that it’s a really popular size for houseplants. Also, it fits a plant that is probably a bit too heavy for you to want to carry around.
As the major cost for anything made of plastic is in the tooling (plastic mould), we only have one size at this point.
But please send us any suggestions so we know where to take PerkyPod next!
PerkyPod is made of UV-stabilised ASA plastic so it can be used indoors and outdoors for many years without discolouring.
When used indoors, PerkyPod saves the hassle of water running all over your floors. No more rotting floor boards, mouldy carpet and slippery drips. And no more lifting elsewhere so you can water in ample volume.
When used outdoors, PerkyPod prevents dirty messes leaking all over your patio and balcony, or into your pool! And say goodbye to unsightly limescale stains on your floors and pot saucers.
Wait 10-30 minutes for the water to finish draining into the water drawer. If you listen carefully, you may even be able to hear when the drips have stopped! Then you can remove the drawer and tip the water out of the easy-pour spout.
You can recycle that water on other plants (especially handy when you don’t want to waste precious fertiliser) or tip it in your garden. Or, you can leave the water in the drawer for the next plant chore session. It’s up to you!
We love making perky plants achievable for everyone - even black thumbs! Our founder, Louise, is a busy mum and civil engineer who has always looked for ways to make life easier. PerkyPod simplifies watering with no stress, mess or lifting. Add the optional wheels for ultimate ease! Patent-pending and Australian-made and owned.
