The Pepin Paula Autonomous Pot (White Speckled) is a compact self-watering ceramic pot designed to keep your plants consistently hydrated with minimal effort. Using a two-part system (an inner pot for the plant and an outer pot as a water reservoir), Paula supplies water gradually through the natural porosity of the ceramic, so the roots receive moisture as needed—helping reduce the risk of overwatering or underwatering. 

Pepin describes Paula as a “plantsitter,” providing up to 2 weeks of effortless watering, depending on the plant and environment—useful for busy routines and holidays.
