The reLEAF Rain Collector is a rain collector for potted plants. Created by Swiss design team FULGURO, it's made of thermo lacquered aluminum and shaped to resemble a leaf. Water is funneled down the stem of the unit straight to the roots of your plant. It looks horrible and kind of detracts from the plant doesn't it? If you're too lazy to water your plants, you shouldn't have any. Children either. Definitely no children.

So what do you gain from having an ugly plant? Isn't appearance the reason one maintains plants around the house/garden? Aside from herbs and vegetables/fruits, but how many people have those in their garden and how many would be willing to use this thing? It's a novel idea but its badly executed, maybe if they made it look less like ass
