St. Louis helps me from prototype to a national recognized 3D printed self-watering pot
That foundation opened the door to sharing our story more widely. Over the years, we’ve been featured on STL TV’s City Corner, KSDK’s Show Me St. Louis, KMOV 4’s My St. Louis Live, STL MADE and in the St. Louis Business Journal. Each feature was more than a spotlight — it was a reminder of the strong local roots and partnerships that continue to shape our story.
How does Self-Watering Pot Work?Each Posie Pot includes a hidden reservoir seamlessly built into its one-piece body. Through natural capillary action, water is slowly drawn up to the roots, giving your plant just the right amount of moisture it needs. |
I leveraged fifteen years of mechanical and aerospace engineering experience to drive R&D. Step by step, I refined our design to address gardeners’ biggest pain points and promote sustainable planting with recyclable, corn-based plastics and precise water delivery.
“Our goal is to promote sustainability while simplifying plant care”
Art meets science meets gardening with the Posie Pots.
Today, Posie Pots operates as a women-owned small business, offering signature styles like Wave and Twisted Square, each crafted to delight and perform. You’ll find our self-watering pots at the Missouri History Museum gift shop bringing easy care greenery watering pots to homes across town.
Key Features:
95% less water
10x larger reservoir

Best Watering Pot Features for Busy Plant Parents
We continuously gather customer feedback and apply lean iteration to improve both form and function. Our efforts stood out among nearly 15,000 applicants, earning us one of just 500 spots at Walmart’s 11th Annual Open Call. Today, Posie Pots is available on Walmart and working towards getting into 100 stores nationwide.
Despite our national growth, I remain deeply rooted in St. Louis. In 2023, when ABC’s Good Morning America host Tory Johnson declared, “These planters are made in America—to be specific, St. Louis,” I felt immense pride in our hometown’s support.
