Gravity’s Rainbow

Boskke Sky Planters

You reuse shopping bags, make your own compost, and “let it mellow.” You’re pretty green, but do you know what water wastrels lurk in sunny windows?

The houseplants (those H2O-guzzling bastards).

Put the kibosh on rampant overindulgence by replacing your regular planter with a Boskke Sky Planter. The nifty device uses an internal system to trap moisture so it doesn’t evaporate, causing you to water less and conserve more.

What’s also crazy is that your plants hang upside down (which we’re certain they love). But don’t worry about potting soil falling everywhere or splattered begonias: The BSP has a soil lock. We don’t know how it works: It’s all part of the magic.

Now get going and repurpose that old planter into something clever.
