Ilex Studio Avocado Vase

The Ilex Studio Avocado Vase is a beautifully simple way to grow an avocado seed into a living plant. Designed to refine the traditional toothpick method, the vase cradles the avocado seed above the water, keeping it dry as it sprouts while allowing the roots to grow freely below. Its clear, sculptural form lets you watch the first stages of growth unfold — from seed, to root, to stem, to leafy houseplant. Made from borosilicate glass, the Avocado Vase is both practical and elegant, with a minimal design that sits beautifully on a windowsill, kitchen bench, desk or shelf. It is a thoughtful gift for plant lovers, design enthusiasts, curious children, or anyone who enjoys the quiet satisfaction of growing something from seed. Each vase includes a 36-page handbook with step-by-step guidance for germinating and growing your avocado plant, including helpful notes on water, light, pruning and repotting.
