Frequently Asked Questions
How do you care for a Clusia in a hydroponic jar? Regularly check the water level and top up if needed, completely change the water every 2 to 3 months with a few drops of liquid fertilizer, and clean the jar if deposits appear — that’s really all you need to do.
Can the LED on the Kingston jar replace natural light for the plant? No, the LED is decorative ambient lighting, not horticultural lighting — the plant needs bright indirect natural light in addition to maintain its growth and healthy foliage over the long term.

🌿 Clusia in hydroponics • 💡 Integrated LED • 🔒 Airtight Kingston jar • 💧 Soil-free • ✨ Ready to display
Native to the Caribbean and Central America, Clusia — nicknamed the "Autograph Tree" because of its thick leaves on which inscriptions can be written — is presented here in a Kingston jar made of transparent glass with a distinctive shape and airtight lid, featuring integrated LED lighting. Its roots develop directly in water, creating a fascinating self-contained mini-ecosystem to observe. One of the most stylish options in our gift ideas collection and our original plants.
Which Clusia presentation should you choose?
The hydroponic Clusia is available in several formats and containers with different designs:
- Clusia Kingston jar LED (this plant) — Kingston glass jar with a distinctive shape, integrated LED, large format (H30 cm | Ø12 cm). The version with the most distinctive design.
- Clusia glass jar LED — classic cylindrical jar with LED, large format (H30 cm | Ø12 cm). The cleanest and most classic version.
- Clusia cylindrical jar without LED — same jar without lighting (H30 cm | Ø12 cm). The most understated version.
- Clusia Samoa LED — mini — compact small format with LED (H10 cm | Ø5 cm). The miniature version, ideal for a desk or bedside table.
- Clusia Samoa without LED — mini — understated small format without lighting (H10 cm | Ø5 cm). The most affordable version to get started.
Light & placement
- Light: bright indirect light — avoid direct sun, which can overheat the glass jar and the roots immersed in water.
- Ideal locations: desk, shelf, bedside table, windowsill, or console table.
- Temperature: 18 to 25 °C, without sudden changes.
- LED: integrated ambient lighting — runs on batteries or USB depending on the model received.
Watering & care
- Water level: check regularly and top up with water at room temperature if the level drops — this is the only regular care required.
- Water change: replace the water completely every 2 to 3 months to keep it fresh and prevent algae growth.
- Cleaning: clean the Kingston jar with a soft cloth if deposits appear on the glass walls.
- Fertilizer: add a few drops of liquid fertilizer for green plants every 2 to 3 months — the guidelines for plant nutrition apply here with even smaller doses than in conventional cultivation.
Decor ideas & combinations
- Designer gift idea: delivered fully ready to give and display — one of the best plant gift ideas for someone who has never had a plant, with no demanding care or growing medium. The Kingston jar adds distinctive designer character compared with the classic cylindrical jar.
- As a botanical night-light: placed on a bedside table, its LED creates a soft, warm light in the evening — a unique combination of greenery and ambient lighting that transforms the plant into a luminous decorative object.
- Soil-free decor arrangement: pair it with a Tillandsia King Xero on a metal stand and a Clusia Samoa LED mini — three contemporary botanical objects without growing medium for a fully green shelf without demanding watering.
Verdeia tips
- Observe the root growth: the transparent Kingston jar makes root development in the water visible — one of the most fascinating aspects of hydroponic cultivation, both particularly educational and decorative.
- Avoid direct sun on the jar: direct light heats the water, encourages algae growth, and can burn the roots — bright indirect light is more than enough to keep the plant healthy.
- Change the water every 2 to 3 months: even if the level remains stable, stagnant water gradually becomes depleted — regular changes with a few drops of liquid fertilizer keep the plant vigorous over the long term.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Shipping is done within 48 business hours, with tracked delivery within 2 to 5 business days. Delivery costs €5.60 — free for orders over €50. You will receive a tracking link as soon as the package is shipped.
What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What to do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
