Indoor Urns, How They Work & What They Are
The Living Urn Indoors has a special separated outer chamber within the urn to hold and securely contain the cremated remains of your loved one. The inner chambers hold the tree or houseplant and growing medium. Instructions are provided to distribute a small amount of cremated remains into the growing medium. All you have to do is choose your tree or plant that you wish to place inside and follow the easy instructions provided. The ceramic lid will enclose everything for a lovely, finished look.
The Living Urn Indoors is designed to use either indoors or on a patio, depending on where you prefer to see it. If you keep it indoors, most bonsai trees and plants prefer to be within 2 feet of a window with good sunlight part of the day. You may also consider to purchase a grow light if you prefer to place it further away from a window.
Please refer to the instructions supplied with your Bonsai Tree as the watering will vary depending on the type of tree. Generally speaking, it best not to over water. You may choose to purchase a Water Meter to monitor the moisture of the soil.
The Living Urn Indoors assembly allows you to use any standard 4” diameter planter pot in the center growing area (remove plant from grower’s pot). This can include most houseplants for indoors such as African Violets, Orchids, Golden Pothos, Spider Plant, mini Bamboo, Dracaena, etc. Patio options can include small Ferns, Palms, Lavender, Succulents, Cyclamen or consider your relative’s favorite flower to plant seasonally and keep on the patio. You can also simply remove an older plant carefully and replace with something new over the years, as you choose.
Rather than using a live plant with The Living Urn Indoors, you can use the provided cup insert to hold water and fresh cut flowers. At any time in the future, you can remove the water cup and add your bonsai tree or other live plant.
