Modern planter with a hidden water reservoir, removable drain plug, and display shelves

How the Water Reservoir Works-

This planter features a hidden water reservoir beneath the soil to help manage excess water and keep your plant's roots from sitting directly in it.

Removable Reservoir Insert-

The round perforated insert sits inside the planter and supports the soil while allowing excess water to drain through the openings into the reservoir below. The insert can be removed whenever you need to clean the planter or access the reservoir.

Drain Plug-

The removable plug on the back of the planter seals the reservoir during normal use. When it's time to empty excess water, simply remove the plug and allow the reservoir to drain before replacing it.

This design helps reduce the chance of overwatering while providing a convenient way to manage excess moisture without disturbing your plant.

Note: This planter is designed with a drainage reservoir to collect excess water. Plant care requirements vary, so always water according to your specific plant's needs.

I attached 3 different size drain plugs just for different printer tolerances and in case someone wanted to sand down the model and clear coat it. You can put a small rubber o-ring around the base of the plug to decrease chances of leakage. If watered correctly there should be minimal water collected though
