Watering the Boo-Boo Plant

1. Get a shallow dish. A water bottle cap works too.

2. Add water. Distilled or purified water is best, but tap water is fine. The capsule has tiny holes in the bottom that let water reach the moss inside.

3. Dip the base for about 1 minute.

4. Wet only a quarter to half of the moss. Succulents and cacti don't like too much water, and soggy moss can hurt the roots.

After watering

• Keep the plant still for 30–40 minutes so the moss can settle.
• Keep it away from the cold until it dries.
• If condensation forms inside the capsule, take the top off and let it air out.

How often?

Each plant's page lists its watering interval. When your plant arrives, give it a short 30-second drink, then follow that schedule. Every live plant order includes these instructions.
