PlantAssure Sub-Irrigation System
$9.52 – $12.26
A PLANTZ exclusive that makes caring for your plant foolproof. Our PlantAssure Sub-irrigation System is designed to extend your plant’s watering interval, often times allowing plants to go several weeks to a month between waterings.
The kit is sized to the grow pot of your plant, and raises the grow pot above the liner creating a reservoir from which the plant draws water as the soil dries down. Each kit includes:
1) one PVC ring of approximately 6″ or 8″ in diameter that will raise the grow pot approximately 1″ off the bottom of the liner
2) four wicks made of capillary matting material that absorb water from the reservoir into the soil profile.
When a PlantAssure kit is ordered with a new plant from us, the plant will be delivered to you with the wicks installed and you will incur no additional shipping costs. You will simply place the plant on top of the PVC ring in the liner and push the wicks down in to the bottom of the liner where it will come in contact with the water when you water the plant.
Please note that liners are NOT included with the system if it is purchased without a plant but any local garden center should have these. You should measure the diameter of the base of the plant and purchase one locally that is slightly larger.
You can order the PlantAssure kits separately and install them yourself on your existing plants or plants from other sources.
Thanks Sue!
Not enough experience with it yet, but seems helpful re: watering proper amounts.
I’m glad I ordered the PlantAssure kit too.
Thanks Karen! I’m also glad you have it and thanks for your note. It certainly takes the guesswork out of wondering when it needs to be watered!

Great system . . . a real time saver.
These are great and add a lot of room for error in your watering.
This is a must- makes it so you only water one or two times a month.
Great system. It takes the question out of watering.
Great device to extend the watering interval. Must have.
It’s a must have!
I have another plant without it so I’m really happy to try it!
Just started using it. Think it will work great!
Works well and simple to install/use!
I’m yet to see how this works. I understand it in theory, but my first plant was frozen in transport, so I am yet to watch this work. I am slightly concerned that the water will start to smell stagnant. We will see!
The plant should be using up the water regularly so you can wait until the liner has dried down before adding fresh water. It should extend the watering intervals since there is more water for the plant to use and not sit until the water is stagnant.
Thanks,
Sue
Easy to set up!
Simple and efficient system to ensure your plants have water but aren’t soaked and aren’t prone to root rot.
Great system!
Sue is very helpful! Plant is beautiful and received it in great condition.
Thank you! I have a great team that helps! Your next order will be shipping soon! I can’t wait to see the photos!
Sue
Works great – first time I was able to keep my plants alive!
Vinyl liner broken in transit. Luckily had saucer to replace it with.
Thanks for letting us know! I’m hoping you’ve received the replacement liner and all is well now. Will reach out via email to check on you!
Thanks,
Sue
Makes it easier to water my plants.
Love this! Makes watering so easy!
Haven’t received it! Ordered same time as plant.
This was installed in the plant for you. The white capillary wicks are protruding from the growpot holes at the base of the plant and the riser ring is in the liner under the plant. I’ll give you a call to make sure you have it and have gotten my care instructions too!
Thanks – Sue
Simple yet effective solution to prevent root rot of any plant.
I love plants, but caring for them is not one of my strengths. This system has helped me keep my plant alive and looking great!
Awesome! Thanks for letting us know and we wish that everyone would invest in this for their plants to help keep them happy and healthy!
Sue
Great system, although I need a flashlight to see what’s going on inside my larger decorative planter.
Measuring and dating will help you with this once the plant has settled in. It takes about 4 weeks for them to settle down.
Thanks,
Sue
Love! Makes maintenances so very easy!
The system makes it so easy to see when I need to water my plant. Gives me peace of mind.
Making it all so easy, thank you.
So far it’s been great I never thought keeping your plant hydrated could be so easy.
Not sure how to rate this as I have not used it yet
I am emailing you now to help get you started!
Sue
A bit pricey for what it is…pebbles could also raise the growpot to allow drainage and air circulation around the roots.
The system is more about the capillary wicks than the riser but we try to make it easier for customer by adding the riser which is the perfect height and a bit easier to use than pebbles.
Sue
The PlantAssure Kit is a great innovation which solves the over or under watering problem that plant novices have.
I don’t think you qualify as being a novice anymore! So glad your plants are happy and healthy!
Thanks,
Sue
Love the watering system. It takes the guesswork out of watering.
Yes it does and we highly recommend it for every plant!
Thanks – Sue
Great for taking the guess work out of watering plant
A life saver. Takes away the worry of over & under watering. Love it!
Our palm is healthy – more importantly, even though I’m a novice at keeping houseplants, I am stress free and literally never worry about over or under watering. Very simple to use, and the instructions and videos from the Plantz team were great. Even if I didn’t love the customer service (and I do), I would choose Plantz for all my future houseplant needs because of the simplicity and peace of mind that come from the irrigation system.
Thank you Jocelyn!
Sue
Unique! They make it super easy to understand, too.
Very easy to use and works very well. Takes the guesswork out of wondering if the plants need water or not!
Thanks – Sue
Easy installation, too early to deserve a 5 until I see how it works, but I have 100% confidence I’ll add that extra point once I see how much easier it makes my life
This is a fantastic system! I want it for all of my plants!
If you are one who is not sure about watering (I’ve learned the hard way how important it is to get it right) you need to get this. Just do it.
Getting it on a watering schedule is the most important thing! I think we’ve all killed a few plants by overwatering!
Sue
The idea here is great, but a few things could improve it, I think: 1) the ring could be slightly bigger, so the plant sits more firmly atop it, and 2) instructions could indicate that water is supposed to come up to the _bottoms_ of the growpot’s holes, not above that.
Thanks for the notes. I think we state in a few places that the water stays below the holes where the wicks are protruding but I’ll highlight this in my emails going forward.
Thank you!
Sue
Life saver!
So convenient
Makes watering and maintenance of plants easy
Keeps plants watered!
Yes! It takes the guesswork out of wondering if they need water or not!
Thanks – Sue
Works exactly as described!
So glad to hear that it is working for you. It does take the guesswork out of wondering when and how much to water!
Thanks – Sue
This helps cut down on watering worry, but not absolutely necessary if you’re good with plants. I do like it.
It is perfect for those who are new to houseplants or are purchasing something that requires high light!
Thanks – Sue
this thing, while so simple, makes watering the plant so much easier! takes the guesswork out and that is much appreciated as a first time plant mama
We wish that all our customer would try this and we use it in our house accounts here in Central Florida as it makes our technicians lives so much easier!
Thanks – Sue
Makes the decision about when to water the plant very easy.
We’re so glad you’re understanding the system. It’s so easy to use and really helps prevent over/under watering and can extend the watering intervals too!
Thanks – Sue
Makes perfect sense.
Thanks!
Sue
Make knowing when to water very easy.
This system took the guess work out. It’s working beautifully! No brainer!
Thanks for the nice and true comments! I hope that others see this and give it a try!
Thanks – Sue
This has been great!
Only negative is that shipping cost as much as item.
Hi Melissa – Unfortunately, we don’t have any control over FedEx and their pricing. I wish we did! We try to get customers to add supplies when they order the plant so we can include everything in the same box and there is no additional shipping charges. We do try to get our rates lower on a regular basis but so far, FedEx isn’t being very flexible!
Works well. Glad I purchased it.
Waiting for my ring
My two plants are beautiful, they have transformed my apartment into a homely space all while being healthy to live with! Easy process and amazing customer service. I had lots of questions and I was encouraged to send pictures of the plants so they could comment and send advice on where to put them and how to care for them.
The PlantAssure Sub-irrigations System is a must have for the FLF trees, its made my life so much easier.
Very cool. Not 100% certain I set the white pieces in the pot properly but the pants are thriving so hope it’s a good sign.
I’m really glad I added this to my order.
Watering system makes caring for the palm so easy.
Received plant only a week ago and haven’t had much experience with the benefits of the irrigation yet.
Sure help rid of the guessing game of “is it wet or dry?”. So very happy with the help of the PlantAssure.
I purchased 2 other plants and those get a 5 rating. They did super through the delivery. More than all of this, I want to commend you on your outstanding customer service. Sue was the person I dealt with the entire time. She was amazing to work with. She followed the delivery, provided instructions, and then followed up to see how things were coming along. I will recommend you guys to anyone that wants some amazing plants. I look forward to ordering some for myself at home now. Thanks so much Sue Waltzer. Your amazing!
This appears to be working very well, glad I got it!
Still trying to figure it out. A bit complicated, and once the tree is in its container, I’m hoping the watering will be easy.
So far, so good! Purchased this with a plant so it came ready to use.
