Night Sky

“The sky grew darker, painted blue on blue, one stroke at a time, into deeper and deeper shades of night.” -Haruki Murakami

Our Night Sky-inspired vase captures the imagery of the quote above perfectly. The deep navy background partnered with white and blue-grey drips captures the essence of the night sky on a warm summer’s night exquisitely.

It is mid-August and you love to simply gaze at the stars on clear nights when they twinkle bright. Their white light accentuates the dark navy canvas they decorate within the sky. You see a shooting star with the streaks of white light streaming behind it, similar to the white strokes we have brought to life in the design of our Night Sky self-watering vase.

The concept of the true vastness of the night sky is amazing. The darkness, similar to our dark navy background, is endless. The only essence of color comes from within the darkness itself. It is the blue/grey hues of the moon shining brightly, the bright white starts glistening, decorating the night sky we love to star at that intrigue us. The light accents against a dark background, such as our Night Sky vase, can cause anyone’s imagination to soar.

The African violet is very similar to the night sky; the possibilities with this flower are endless. While many new gardeners assume the African violet’s only shade is purple, they are quite mistaken. There are hundreds of hybrids with an assortment of color schemes to choose from. You can match your African violets to your Night Sky vase to truly capture the essence of the dark colors, or you can choose a bright, eye-catching shade that stands out against the dark navy hues.

Now that you have chosen the Night Sky self-watering vase as the newest piece of home décor, it is time to learn more about the benefits of this type of vase for your African violets. It is easy to over-water your new African violets, especially as a beginner flower enthusiast. This self-watering vase is comprised of two separate pieces that fit together perfectly. You simply place water in the bottom and plant your African violet on top. After that, your self-watering vase springs into action, watering your African violets from the bottom to ensure they stay healthy and beautiful.

This method of watering your African violets not only makes it easy to keep them alive but also benefits the environment as well. This self-watering design minimizes water loss through seepage or evaporation. The design of the self-watering vase allows just enough water into its bottom reservoir, which is conserving water usage but still allows enough water to be absorbed by your African violets for maximum growth.

Our self-watering Night Sky vase is the perfect size for any space. It does not matter if you live in a studio apartment or a two-story house with a giant greenhouse in your backyard, this vase is for you. The color scheme, the size compatibility, and the self-watering aspect of this Night Sky vase is a great investment for you and your African violets.
