Commonly known as Magic Flowers, Achimenes are the hidden gems of the summer garden. These delightful plants produce an endless stream of funnel-shaped blooms in vibrant shades of violet, pink, blue, and white. Their trailing habit makes them the absolute gold standard for hanging baskets, window boxes, and decorative patio pots.
Why are they called "Hot Water Plants"? Legend has it that watering them with slightly warm water "wakes them up," though we simply love them for their resilience and spectacular floral display from mid-summer until the first frost.
Prolific Bloomers: A single basket can produce hundreds of flowers throughout the season.
Shade Heroes: They brighten up north-facing porches and shaded corners where other flowers struggle.
Unique Growth: They grow from fascinating scaly rhizomes that can be harvested and replanted year after year.
Velvety Foliage: The dark green (and sometimes bronze-tinted) leaves provide a lush, premium backdrop to the bright petals.

Our plants and mosses are hand selected at local growers with the utmost care and love. Here, they are grown in the most sustainable way possible. This way, the plants in your glass bottle are guaranteed to thrive together and you will enjoy your personal ecosystem with plants for many years to come.
We learn by doing. By creating your own terrarium with plants in a bottle yourself or with your children you learn about the various facets of the earth and thus the basis of our living existence in a creative way. Stone, potting soil, roots, plants, water and recycling all come together in this creative eye-catcher for your home.
• We work with MPS-certified plants and recycled glassware.
• Dimensions and colours of live plants may vary.
• It is also possible that, due to the season, a pictured plant is not in stock. In that case you will receive a beautiful alternative.
• It is recommended to open your ecosystem once a month for a few hours.
A great gift for your green friend, but definitely also for your less green friend. Does he or she not have a green thumb? Then follow the five steps yourself and make it for him or her yourself. Great story, right?
You can let your ‘I do have a green thumb’ friend figure it all out him- or herself!
Give it as a birthday gift, a housewarming gift, or whatever occasion you can think of. It makes for a different and unique gift. This time, gift the bottle but hold the liquor. That is, if you manage to give it away... We bet that this special eye-catcher will have a place in your interior in no time.
