Why Buy AquaPots?
AquaPots are self-watering ceramic pottery invented by award-winning landscape architect Jack Barnwell. Unmatched designs, refined colors and unprecedented finishes make AquaPots a great addition for not only porches, patios, terraces and balconies, but also in the landscape. Homestead Gardens is excited to carry several styles and colors of AquaPots in all their stores, including online!
Top 3 Reasons to Choose AquaPots by Proven Winners:
- Highest quality finishes of any ceramic planters – AquaPots’ proprietary clay formulas and processes result in the removal of foreign substances trapped in the material, resulting in incredibly smooth, pure finishes. You’ll find little to no pitting in the glaze utilized on AquaPots, compared to others on the market. Pitting allows debris and water to get into the pottery, compromising it over time.
- Most durable planters on the market – AquaPots have been time-tested and perform flawlessly in gardens across North America. The process of curing the clay at ultra-high temperatures and using only the highest quality, purest clay which is free of impurities allows AquaPots to withstand high and low temperature extremes.
- Trendsetting colors and finishes – We don’t just follow the trends, we set them; constantly studying trends and colors. Each new glaze recipe takes years of work and trials to perfect before introduction. Currently, dozens of unique colors and finishes are available across the full line of AquaPots. You can find a variety of these colors and finishes at Homestead Gardens. In fact, you’ll find a stunning collection of Aqua Pot containers planted with your favorite annuals and houseplants, ready to place right in the perfect spot!
