Why Inappropripots?

Most plant pots are a container. This one is a character. He turns a plain windowsill into something guests actually comment on, and he does it without taking up half the surface.

He also solves the small problem every plant person has: two plants, one nice spot. The head bowl takes the leafy one, the cup in his hands takes the little one, and they end up looking deliberate instead of crowded.

And yes — what you plant in the pot he is holding is entirely up to you. A tall cactus is the internet's favourite choice, and we understand exactly why. That is where the name came from.

Benefits & Features

  • Two planting spots in one piece — head bowl plus a hand-held pot
  • Glossy white glazed [ceramic] with a hand-finished look
  • Sleepy painted face, same on every one
  • Removable mustard-yellow cup pot
  • 23cm long × 11.5cm tall — shelf and windowsill sized

The little guy himself

A face that does half the work

The sleepy expression is what makes him. Two closed lashes and a small smile, painted low on the front of the head bowl so it still reads once the plant is in. Nothing about him is trying too hard.

Two pots, not one

The head opening is a proper bowl, deep enough for a nursery pot rather than a token pinch of soil. The mustard-yellow cup sits loose in his hands, so you can lift it out, plant it separately and drop it back in.

Glossy white goes with everything

One clean colourway means he suits a bright kitchen, a dark bookshelf or a bathroom shelf equally. The only colour on him is the little yellow pot, which is the point.

Inappropripots Gives You...

  • A plant pot that people stop and pick up
  • Two planting spots without two pots cluttering the shelf
  • An easy gift for the plant person who already owns everything
  • A joke that lands every time, without a word being said

He measures 23cm long and 11.5cm tall, which is roughly the footprint of a paperback lying flat. That fits a standard windowsill, a desk beside a monitor, a bathroom shelf or a bedside table.

Your Questions Answered

Do the plants come with it?

No — he arrives empty and ready for whatever you choose. That is deliberate: shipping live plants adds cost, delays and a lot of dead leaves. Most people plant a small trailing plant in his head and a cactus or succulent in the pot he is holding.

What size plants fit?

The head bowl comfortably takes a standard [9cm] nursery pot's worth of plant — a spider plant, a small pothos, a fern, a peace lily. The cup in his hands suits a small succulent, an aloe or a cactus. Faux plants work just as well if you would rather not water anything.

Is there a drainage hole?

There is no drainage hole, so either keep your plant in its nursery pot and sit that inside the bowl, or add a layer of gravel at the bottom and water lightly. Both are standard for decorative indoor planters.

What is he made of?

Glossy white glazed [ceramic], with a painted face. He has a reassuring bit of weight to him rather than feeling like plastic, and he wipes clean with a damp cloth.

How big is he really?

23cm long and 11.5cm tall — about the footprint of a paperback lying flat. Big enough to be a centrepiece on a windowsill or desk, small enough that he does not take the whole surface.

Can he go outside?

He is designed as an indoor piece. Frost and glazed ceramic do not get on, so keep him on the inside of the window rather than the outside.

Is he a good gift?

He is the easiest gift on this website. He arrives in his own box, he needs no wrapping to look like an effort was made, and the person opening him always laughs. Housewarmings, birthdays, and the plant-obsessed friend who already owns every pot going.

Customer photo review of Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

I nearly didn't order because I wanted something darker to match the shelf, and now I'm glad I did — the white is bright and glossy rather than a flat off-white, and it stands out against the wood instead of disappearing into it. Well made, no seams or mould lines anywhere.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Customer photo review of Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Basil in the head and a tiny cactus in the cup. Sits by the kettle. It's cheered the whole corner up and I didn't expect a plant pot to do that.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

This is now my default housewarming present. Cheap enough that it isn't awkward, funny enough that it gets remembered, and it's a real thing they'll actually use rather than another candle.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Turned up two days before the date I was given, boxed well with the figure wrapped separately, not a mark on the glaze. I'd braced myself for a chipped corner given how fragile it looks. Lovely thing, and my daughter has already asked for one.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The video made it look a bit plasticky, which put me off ordering for a week. It isn't. It's proper glossy glaze with a bit of weight to it and it catches the light across the shoulders. Should have bought it sooner.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Put it on the windowsill, he walked past it about six times, then at 9pm the next day just went "oh". Worth every penny for that alone. It's also a genuinely nice pot when nobody's looking at it.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Genuinely thought I'd be waiting a month, because that's how these usually go. Five days. Tracking actually updated, and the thing that arrived is exactly what was in the video, same glossy white, same little face. No notes.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

I kill everything, so I put an artificial spider plant in the head and a fake little cactus in the cup, and honestly you can't tell. If you want the look without another thing to remember to water, it works perfectly.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Gave it to a mate for his birthday straight out of the delivery box, no wrapping, and it looked like something I'd paid proper money for. He opened it in the pub and the whole table wanted to know where it was from, so you're welcome for the free advertising.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

I've got about thirty plants and no windowsill left. This one goes on the corner of the shelf above the radiator and looks like it's meant to be there rather than squeezed in. That's the whole reason I'm keeping it. Came fast as well, six days.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The pot in the head takes a real plant no problem, and the small yellow cup lifts straight out, so I carry that one to the sink and put it back rather than sloshing water down the whole thing. Tiny cactus in it, and it looks like it was designed that way rather than bolted on.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Bought one for me, then one for my sister, and now one for a leaving present at work. All three turned up inside a week. Everybody has the same reaction, which is a confused pause and then a laugh. I have never had a gift land that reliably.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

I was half expecting the face to be a printed sticker that peels, because that's what usually happens at this price. It isn't. Two thin closed eyes and a little smile, properly painted on and neat up close. That's the difference between an ornament and tat and this landed on the right side.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

This is the exact right level of rude. Funny enough that my mates lose it, innocent enough that I don't have to move it when my nan comes over. She said it was sweet. It is sweet. It is also not sweet. Perfect.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The finish is genuinely good, glossy white with a neat little face and no wonky printing. It's a tabletop thing, roughly the length of a TV remote, which turned out to be exactly what I needed because it fits on the bookshelf where a big planter never would. Bang on what the photos showed.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Ordered Sunday night, on my doorstep Thursday, which for something I bought off a video at 1am I was not expecting at all. Wrapped properly too, nothing chipped, no cracks in the glaze. It's heavier than it looks in the photos, that solid ceramic weight, so it doesn't slide about when you water it.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Bought it for the joke, kept it for the plant. I ordered this as a gag for my desk and I've ended up actually liking it as a pot. The head is a proper open bowl with room for soil, not one of those ornaments with a hole the size of a shot glass, so my little dracaena has been in there six weeks and is doing fine. The yellow cup lifts out so I take that one to the tap and put it back. Best thing on my desk, and I work in an office where that is a low bar.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Saw it on TikTok at midnight and ordered it before I'd properly thought about it. Spider plant in the head, little cactus in the yellow cup, and everyone who has been round has worked out the joke in about four seconds. My friend screamed. My mum said nothing, which I think means she also got it. Three people have asked where it's from and I've sent all three the link.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

A little white guy having a lie down holding my plants. The head bowl has my trailing plant and the pot in his hands has a little cactus. Everyone who visits comments on him.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Bought it for my wife who has plants everywhere. She put a cactus in the pot he is holding and cried laughing. Best windowsill thing we own.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Glossy white ceramic, lovely and smooth, with a sleepy little face. Two planting spots in one ornament. He turned a plain sill into a talking point. Came within days of ordering.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The head is an open bowl so a real plant grows straight out of the top of him. The leafy one up top and a succulent in his hands. Looks deliberate, not crowded.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

At 23cm he is big enough to be the thing on the shelf, not just a thing on it. People notice him from across the room. Love his little content face.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Got it for my partner who is plant mad. She went straight for the cactus in the hand pot, of course. He is her favourite thing on the sill now. Came really quickly as well.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Two plants, one nice spot, sorted. The leafy one in his head, the little one in his hands. Looks deliberate instead of a crowded windowsill.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Solid glossy ceramic with a lovely hand-finished look. He reclines there holding my plants perfectly content. A proper bit of character.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Bought two, one for me and one for my plant-loving sister. Both our windowsills now have a little reclining guy holding plants. We love them.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Feels solid and the glaze is lovely and smooth. The head bowl is a good size for a real plant and the hand pot takes a little succulent. Great. Delivered within a few days, no waiting about.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

He is a character, not just a container. Turned my plain windowsill into something guests actually comment on. And the cactus option is very funny.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Secret Santa for a plant lover at work and it was the hit of the party. She knew exactly what to plant in the hand pot. We all laughed.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The glossy white looks lovely on my shelf and the little guy lying there holding plants makes me smile every day. Two planting spots in one.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

He holds a leafy plant in his head and a cactus in his hands, and yes, that is the joke. Lovely quality ceramic and a proper talking point.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Got one for my windowsill and one for my daughter's desk. The little reclining guy holding plants suits a plant-filled house perfectly.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Big enough to be a feature at 23cm, small enough for the windowsill. Two plants in one ornament, looking deliberate. Lovely.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Bought it for my partner who loves plants and a bit of cheek. She put a cactus in the hand pot immediately. Best present I have given her.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Gave it to my dad who has a succulent collection. He laughed at what to plant in the hand pot and it now sits proudly on his sill.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Glossy, smooth, lovely weight. The head bowl grows my trailing plant and the hand pot a little cactus. People notice him from the doorway. Posted and here before I knew it.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

The white glaze is gorgeous and the sleepy face is adorable. Two planting spots and a cheeky joke built in. My windowsill star.

Inappropripots™ | Little Guy Plant Pot

Got it for my partner who collects plants. She loves the little reclining guy and knew exactly what to put in the hand pot. He is her favourite.
