I avowed to use technology last week to help me keep plants alive — a daunting feat if you know me — but Botanicalls, though impressive and aggressively geeky, is just a little too involved for me. Enter Grobal pots, which, though low tech, are exactly the kind of gadget I need.

Grobal's sophisticated reservoir knows when the plant needs water and nutrients and gives it up, unlike, well, me. Extra points for the drop-dead gorgeous colors, courtesy of designer Karim Rashid!

It's cute. I wouldn't get it for myself, but I'd definitely buy it for any brown-thumb friend or accidental plant-murderers.
1omg I want one. I'm a total accidental plant murderer.
2Adorable and functional?! I totally kill my plants. I'm going to pick up at least one for me and probably more as gifts.
3I want this for my desk, my cat ate the bamboo plant that was there so I need something to bring back some life.
4Oh...I need like 5 of these, to you know, give off the impression that I can actually keep plants alive.
5I need these for my plants too! Somehow I always end up with plants that are brown/wilting.
6AH! Perfect. I managed to kill every single plant i owe except for a single cactus. And the colors are awesome too!
7Super cute! I may have to get me a few of those :]
8Aww. They're so cute!
9I like this idea, i would get one for my desk at work.
10Ooo!! I want one!! Or two! lol My sister &I accidently killed a money plant.
We weren't
paying attention to who was watering it &when..so we ended up drowning it. :T I wonder if they come with the seeding for the plants or if you have to supply those yourself..
11seeing as how i have a natural green thumb, i can take care of my plants solo. but for those who can't it would be great.
12These are awesome! Perfect for a person such as myself who definitely lacks her mother's green thumb.
13I want some of these for two reasons: They are super chic and I can't stand terra cotta pots...they just don't fit with my decor and two I really cannot remember to water plants.
14yeah,its cute.totally need one.
