Hand-thrown by Paul Kierulf, this limited edition Pop Rock planter celebrates difference and imperfection. There is a crack on the back side of the planter as a result of the firing process.

I’m Diego the flowering Bloodwood Tree. I'm native to southern Mexico and northern Central America. I'm a member of the legume family and known for my heart-shaped leaves and fragrant yellow flowers. I was used for a very long time as a natural source of red-orange dye and revolutionized the textile industry when only the wealthy could afford to wear purple and bright red clothing extracted from the juices of bugs and exotic plants.

I love bright conditions. Being near a window will be the best spot in the home, especially if it gets bright indirect light. I enjoy being outside when the weather is above 50F, but I'll make a good indoor companion year-round nonetheless. Just remember to keep me away from heaters and air conditioners. Strong changes in temperature aren't my friend. To water, submerge my pot up to the rim for 5-10 minutes. Do this about once every 5-7 days, or when my pot starts to get light again. You can safely pinch back my leaves to keep me in shape twice a year.

Symbolism: Guided by Feng Shui's Wood element, the Bloodwood embodies growth and creativity, and ultimately promotes an energetic life force, opening of new paths, and progressive change towards well-being. The 'Zhen' Chi symbolizes Thunder, indicative of sudden transformation and change. This tree signifies powerful shifts, transformative growth, and strength amidst adversity.
