What is a Sustee?

Sustee is an award-winning plant moisture meter designed in Japan to take the guesswork out of watering.

First introduced in 2014, Sustee was developed in Japan to make it easier for anyone to know when their plants actually need water. Rather than relying on a watering schedule or guessing what is happening beneath the surface, Sustee monitors moisture at the plant's root zone and indicates when it's time to water. You can simply walk past your plant, take a glance and know if it needs watering. Game changer.

Simply place Sustee into the potting mix and let it do the work. Blue means there is sufficient moisture, while white indicates that it's time to water. Sustee requires no batteries, apps or complicated settings.

An Award-Winning Japanese Design

Sustee's simple design and clever approach to plant care have earned it several prestigious design awards, including:

• Red Dot Design Award 2014 – Germany
• Design for Asia Award 2014 – Bronze Award – Hong Kong
• JIDA Design Museum Selection – 2015 – Japan
• Good Design Award 2015 – Japan

The Red Dot jury recognised Sustee for reducing a moisture meter to only the essentials and making it very intuitive to use.

Today, Sustee remains a simple solution for indoor plants, outdoor potted plants and plant lovers who want an easier way to get watering right.

Less guessing. Less overwatering. Happier plants.
