Description
# 🌿 Begonia Maculata aka Polka Dot Self-Watering Pot Set – S, M, L & XL
This set was specifically designed so that the pots **do not need to be scaled**
Anyone who has ever scaled decorative plant pots with intricate leaf motifs knows the problem: wall thicknesses change, details become messy, and the design loses its effect. That's why you get four separately adjusted sizes here, each specifically optimized for its size
Each pot features a plastically elaborated **Polka Dot leaf** which stands out particularly well with single-color prints and gives the pots their characteristic look

# 💧 Self-Watering System
All sizes are designed for use as self-watering pots
The actual plant pot sits in the upper section. Below it is a separate water reservoir
A capillary wick, guided through the bottom openings of the orchid or aroid pot, allows the plant to independently draw water from the reservoir. This ensures a consistent water supply and significantly extends watering intervals
For all sizes, care has been taken to ensure that the inner pots can be easily removed from above without having to manipulate them inside the pot

# 👀 Viewing Window (optional)
On the back, there is a viewing window through which water level and root development can be easily monitored without having to remove the inner pot
The viewing window is designed as an optional negative and can be activated or deactivated in Bambu Studio as needed
With Viewing Window
✅ Water level control
✅ Root development control
✅ Ideal for orchids, alocasias, and other aroid plants
Without Viewing Window
✅ Closed outer wall
✅ Use as decoration
✅ Use as a vase
✅ Use as a pen holder

All product images are personally photographed by me at home on the dining table and are not AI-generated renderings
I show the printed models as they actually come out of the printer – without artificial enhancements or unrealistic representations
Each file is personally test-printed by me in all offered sizes before publication to ensure accuracy of fit, printability, and the best possible result. This way, you can download the models with confidence and print them directly
