Self-watering planters that use animal tongues to drink the water? This is extreme cuteness!
I always forget to water my plants. Or I over-water. Self-watering plants are a necessity for my house.

Self-Watering Animal Planters that Drink with Their Tongue
So, I need a self-watering planter. I want a cute planter. And I found these adorable animal planters that drink with their tongue! The first ones I found were the dinosaur self-drinking planters. This post contains affiliates.
Self-Watering Dinosaur Planters
These Drinking Dinosaur Planters seem like the perfect way to keep plants healthy and watered, without over or under watering them. The best part is there are different types of dinosaurs that are different colors!
These super cute dinosaurs come in three varieties:
- Triceratops self-watering planter filled with sweet basil that has a blue licking tongue
- Stegosaurus self-watering planter filled with lucky clover that has a pink licking tongue
- Tyrannosaurus Rex self-watering planter filled with wild strawberry that has a purple licking tongue
Each one is made of ceramic so they double as the cutest little decor pieces. I don’t know which dino planter I love the most!

Self-Watering Plant Kits from Greenzaurus
The kits come with their plants ready to grow. All you need to do is follow these simple steps to get the self-watering plants happy and healthy and growing…
- Just remove the dinosaur, set up the little potted plant in their backs
- Place water in the ceramic bowl
- Allow the dinosaurs to drink the water via their big slurpy tongues.
Your dinosaur knows the perfect amount of water for them and you won’t need to worry about guessing.
That’s because each one has little bowls or glass coasters to hold a small amount of water and the tongue only allows so much water to come through.
So you never have to worry about your indoor plant being overwatered or underwatered.

Using the Planters to Start Plants
Once the plants have outgrown their little dinosaur starter pots, you can transfer them to larger pots and replant a new start or just enjoy your dinosaur statues.
It’s a great project with kids too, knowing that the plants will be properly watered. These greenzaurus drinking dinosaur planters will get any kid interested in life science!

These adorable drinking dinosaurs are available and are the only dinosaur self-watering planters I could find.
