These Chic, Magnetic Vases Stick to Your Fridge – and Instantly Solve Your Houseplant Space Problem

As a self-proclaimed houseplant fanatic, there's nothing I love more than finding unique ways to elevate my indoor garden. My latest discovery maximizes vertical space, aids propagation, and looks quirky: magnetic fridge vases.

They're exactly what they sound like – magnetic vessels to stick on your fridge to display plants. More specifically, they're suited to houseplant cuttings you're propagating in water. These Amazon magnetic fridge vases have caught my eye in particular because they have a sophisticated wooden finish and test tube shaped vessel. Just like other propagation stations, this makes it easy to watch root development.

In fact, you can use them to display small cut flowers, too. Whatever the case, there's no doubt they'll uplift your fridge with a little whimsy. 'A nice gift for a plant lover who you think has everything under the sun for gardening,' one reviewer writes. For $9.99, these magnets are the tiny upgrade I didn't know my indoor garden needed.

Why Shoppers Love Them

These Amazon magnetic fridge vases are so easy to use. You just stick them on your fridge, use a narrow-spouted watering can (like this houseplant watering can from Wayfair) to top them up with water, and pop in your cuttings or flower stems.

'These are fun. I have them on my fridge with a small clipping of a plant. They are tiny and cute. I live in an apartment so it is nice to add greenery where I can,' one reviewer writes.

These are the perfect way to add more greenery to your living space if you are limited for room. It's a unique way to make a vertical indoor garden, utilizing the space on your fridge door where you otherwise wouldn't display plants.

'Perfect for propagation in small areas!' another shopper notes.

There are lots of indoor growing systems that allow you to propagate plant cuttings in water, but they can demand a lot of surface space. That's where these Amazon magnetic fridge vases come in.

Plus, just like this test tube propagation station from Amazon, these magnetic planters are the perfect size to support healthy rooting.

I have also seen more decorative magnetic fridge vases (like this charming pack of 10 on Amazon), but they're better suited to displaying tiny wildflowers, rather than supporting rooting.

Just take care to avoid water propagation mistakes by refreshing the water regularly to keep it clean – which you can do easily as the test tubes can be removed from the wooden holders.

As for how they perform, each vase has two magnets for a secure hold.

'I was actually pleasantly surprised by the quality,' a shopper shares.

'The magnets are plenty strong, and the vials fit well in the holder,' another person writes.

Of course, you can display them on other magnetic surfaces, too. Though, it isn't recommended to put them on a surfaces that radiate heat, for example, as this can affect plant growth.

Perhaps the one downside is their size, measuring just 3.94" in length. For heavy flower stems or bigger plant cuttings, they may not be suitable and might fall out.

However, for a pretty and fun way to display rooting cuttings or for an alternative take on bud vases, these Amazon magnetic fridge vases are a great find – especially for $9.99.
