Description
Designed and tested with research institutions, agriculturists, and our very own Plant Doctors, our moisture meters work without batteries and use a pF indicator to detect available water capacity in your plant’s roots, giving a more accurate and concise picture of when it’s time to water. Easy to read with a simple color scale, blue means no need for water while white shows it’s time for a drink. With its minimal and attractive design you may leave it placed in the soil of your plant in between waterings or remove it if desired.
Five moisture meters per package.
Replace the core refill of your moisture meter every 6-9 months, or when it stops turning blue when watered. Core refills can be ordered here.
Note: Moisture Meters are offered as a supplemental tool that can be used in conjunction with manually gauging your plant’s soil for moisture. They are not a substitute for regular monitoring. 100% efficacy is not guaranteed as soil composition and other variables may affect readings.

Featured Questions
When can I expect to receive my plants?
Orders are processed within 1-3 business days, excluding weekends and holidays. Standard transit time is between 2-5 business days once your order ships.
For faster delivery, we offer Express Shipping as well as Overnight Shipping for eligible products. Overnight Shipping is available for orders placed before noon PST, but only on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.
Please note: During extreme weather conditions, particularly for orders going to the East Coast, we'll ship on the subsequent Monday or Tuesday after the order is placed. This strategy ensures efficient travel time and avoids weekend transit, as such delays during severe weather can cause damage. When necessary, we may upgrade your order to Express Shipping to ensure your plants arrive in perfect condition.
We appreciate your understanding and patience. After all, the weather is beyond our control!
Can I order now and schedule delivery for a later date?
Yes you can!
At checkout you can select if you'd like your order to be sent right away or at a later date. This will come in handy if you'll be traveling or are planning for a special occasion.

Will you ship my plants during winter?
We take extra precautions to make sure your order arrives in the best condition. This includes monitoring weather conditions, adding extra layers of protection to packages, and minimizing potential exposure to extreme cold.
Orders shipping to the East Coast may be held to ship on Mondays and Tuesdays to ensure the shortest transit time possible. In cases of extreme weather, we may hold your order until conditions improve. In these cases, you will be notified of the delay and the new projected ship date. Our 45 Day Guarantee is here for you and damages sustained by cold weather during transit or delivery will be promptly addressed by our team.
What is the moisture meter and how does it work?
This moisture meter does not require batteries and uses a simple color scale: blue = no need to water, white = time to water. To use, gently insert as deep as possible into your plant’s soil, taking care not to damage any roots. Wait 20-30 minutes to read. If the window is completely white, water your plant as instructed on your care card. If the window is blue, hold off on watering until it turns completely white. You may leave the moisture meter in the soil of your plant, or remove it and insert again when you believe it may be time to water.
Find more details and information about your new moisture meter here, or purchase them on their own here.
Please note that Léon & George does not take responsibility for damage caused by incorrect or forceful use of the moisture meter.
What's included with each plant set?
When you purchase a plant from Léon & George, you're getting a lot more than just a plant. Here's what's included with each of our sets:
- Hand-selected, California-grown greenery, inspected for quality, beauty, and size. A plant that's trimmed, cleaned, styled, and treated with all-natural soap and insecticide.
- Fitting to a handmade, 100% ceramic pot. Each plant is potted for optimal airflow and drainage, and our ceramics are fully water sealed which means they won't damage your floors. Plant sets are finished with decorative preserved forest moss.
- Optional handmade wood stands crafted with teak or mahogany wood and finished with a non-VOC natural oil finish. Our stands also include felt pads to protect your floors. Upon arrival, easy care instructions for your plant.
- Lifetime access to our Plant Doctors for any necessary plant care support along the way.
What is your 45-day guarantee all about?
We want to assure you that anyone can be a successful plant owner. Our plants are all easy to care for and come with foolproof care instructions. It takes a little practice to develop a green thumb, but if the plant dies within your first 45 days, we'll replace it!

How are your plants different from the ones at local nurseries, or big-box retailers?
Léon & George is not your typical plant shop. We make it possible for you to get the interior design look you've seen in your favorite magazines and design blogs, without the hassle of buying and matching separate greenery, planters, and stands. We do this by pairing each plant with a custom planter designed to fit your space and meet your plant's needs for healthy growth.
We use only the highest quality greens, sourced from growers who are kind to their crops! That means our plants are never rushed, shocked, or treated with harmful chemicals. We're willing to wait longer—and pay our suppliers more—to get the best products available. And we pass the benefits on to you, our customers: premium greenery that will complement your home decor and look phenomenal for years to come.
