Sarah Burrows and Nick Behr

Prior to launching their company, Sarah and Nick struggled to sustain a kitchen garden in their fourth-floor Chicago apartment. Despite both honing their gardening skills as children, as busy adults they struggled to grow anything (container gardening is incredibly challenging). They turned to hydroponics for help and were astounded by the results, but unimpressed with the quality of products available. With that, the seed for their stylish, space-saving indoor gardens was planted.

My friend loved it

I gave this to a friend to have something living and green to anticipate and look forward to because winters are long in Minnesota. She loves it, and it's already growing!


I would buy this product again

I got this for my husband for Christmas. Once it was opened, we followed directions for assembly. Can't wait to see our lavender and have it's scent fill the air.


I sent as a gift..

But it didn't grow:( she kept the pot and was going to buy different seeds.

Response from merchant

We’re so sorry that your Self-Watering Lavender Grow Kit didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how disappointing that must be, especially since we usually receive such positive feedback and rarely encounter issues with this item. This isn’t the experience we want for you, and we’d love to make it right by sending you a replacement. We’re reaching out directly to get this sorted for you.


Very well done....

This is a Mother`s day gift and it is everything I hoped it would be when i ordered it. First, it is as easy to set up as place a tub in a jar...end of process! But it is truly self-contained so those without a green thumb can enjoy real flowers as if they are experts in the field. I am buying more of these just to put around the house. Ya`ll better hurry and beat me to it!!!!!!


Did Not Grow

Received as a gift. Did not grow.

Response from merchant

Didn't grow

I followed the instructions exactly for months, and nothing grew.

Response from merchant

Thank you for letting us know, we're so very sorry to hear this but also thankful you did your best to follow the care instructions. We know that there could be a number of factors that could play into the plant not growing, although we've seen many instances where the plant did successfully grow. We will still continue to work with our team to see if there is any other helpful info, we could advise ahead of purchasing it. Other than that, we'll be happy to provide you with free replacement so you can give it second chance, we've emailed you to get the process started.


No Grow

I got this for myself in addition to the sunflower one for my mom for Mother's Day and neither of us had any luck growing anything. I followed the instructions to the letter and nothing. Then we tried some different things because my mom knows more about plants than I do and still nothing grew. I was so disappointed. Waste of money.

Response from merchant

Hello! We're very sorry to hear that your Self-Watering Lavender Grow Kit didn't yield any seedlings. We are always glad to provide support for our live items. Please feel to reach out if you have any future questions regarding plants :^) We have reached out to you individually about our return policy and a choice for replacement seeds!


Did not grow! Tried all kinds of things to make it work.

NO, it was not what was expected. The pot was nice but nothing ever grew. Tried several different things to help.

Response from merchant

Thank you for your feedback. We're so sorry the lavender did not grow as expected. We'll be reaching out to you via email for further support and passing the feedback onto our team.


:"( Ordered for my mom

And just found out it didn't grow at all. Not 1 little stem sprouted up. Sort of embarrassing really. The pot is nice, but way too expensive for a plant that does sprout.

Response from merchant

We're so sorry to hear that the Self-Watering Lavender Grow Kit did not sprout for your mom! We thank you for your feedback and will be reaching out to you via email for further support.


Would not buy again, very difficult

Received this as a gift from a friend and it's impossible. The soil does not absorb any liquid as other reviewers noted, so we had to spray the top of the soil because it was clearly not taking water up from the pot. The inner stainless steel pot is also rusting, so there's a design defect. I've tried to re-plant these seeds twice and nothing is sprouting. Soil also appears to be poor quality.

Response from merchant

We're sorry that your seeds haven't grown into a healthy plant. We've emailed you to assist you further.



Is there a link to the directions for the self watering lavender grow kit please? I received it a as Christmas gift and I believe the directions were lost in the shuffle . Thanks!

I'm ready to plant my lavender grow kit that my mom got me for Christmas! However, in reading the instructions, I realized I can't find the carbon packet that was supposed to come with it :/ Is there a way I could order just that packet, or an alternative I could purchase elsewhere?

Verified reply from Amy

Hi Sarah! Apologies for the delay with our Q&A section. If this is still missing, please reach out to help@uncommongoods.com with any information on the order itself so we can help you with a replacement of the item or a refund in the form of a gift certificate!


Can I put my own lavender plant in this pot if I'm to impatient to wait for the lavender to grow from seeds?

Verified reply from David

You definitely can plant your own Lavender Plants in the pot either before or after the initial starter seeds are used to take advantage of the self growing pot. However, the starter seeds are important and should be used indoors because it speeds up the initial growing season and will result in earlier and larger flowers.


How often does the water need to be provided?

Verified reply from Darren

You'll need to fill the ceramic pot with water whenever the reservoir gets too low. Never pour more than 2 1/2 cups into the pot. Be sure to refer to your kit's manual for the plant's exact watering needs.


Does the grown plant give off an aroma? Of lavender?

Verified reply from Merve

Yes! Once the plant is grown, if creating an English Garden is not your cup of tea, you may use the lavender for cooking, cocktails and calming.


What is the size of the container pot the plant grows in?

Verified reply from Allison

5.6" L x 4.6" W


How is the kit "self-watering"?

Verified reply from Allison

It works using a hydroponic system known as “wicking". The wick brings water and nutrients up to the plant's roots that grow in a stainless steel net pot


How long does it take for the plant to grow?

Verified reply from Allison

Seeds may take two weeks or more to germinate and several months to reach about 3 inches tall.


how much sunlight is needed to successfully grow lavender with this kit?

Verified reply from Merve

Grow Kits require at least 4-6 hours of direct light daily, and should be put in an unobstructed window that faces south, west or east (southwest is the best option). During winter months—or if you don’t have an unobstructed window—you can supplement with a grow light.
