Avocado Germinating Bowls - Grass Green

ntroducing the Avocado Vase by Ilex Studio. We believe you will find the avocado plant growing fun, engaging and rewarding. Along with, it’s one of the heartiest and handsome house plants you can grow.

The Avocado Vase’s pure and simple design, based on the principles of minimalism, timelessness, and functionality, allows you to observe the avocado seed as it matures, giving an insight into the plants' first stages of life.

We have refined the traditional method of growing, skipping the toothpicks, and utilising the opening to cradle the seed keeping it dry as it sprouts and encouraging the roots to flourish freely.  The sinuously shaped vase magnifies the roots as they prosper; creating a perfect focal point to witness the plant as it develops.

Your love of avocados can thrive long after eating one; just save the seed, grow it and discover the extraordinary tree inside. 

Ideal for plant lovers, design enthusiasts, inquisitive children and everyone who wishes to experience the joy of nature and a unique connection to our environment.
