I invested in my first propagation station – similar to this but with a black metal frame, and I’ve never looked back.
Now, as I grow many more plants, I can use my cuttings as decorations on my bookshelf, on my desk, and on the counter. They really are a game changer in terms of design.
Here are a few of my favorites, with designs ranging from quirky to elegant to suit any interior style. Gift them to the parents of the plants in your family or treat yourself to your favorite design.
When you think of a plant propagation station, this style probably comes to mind first. The classic wooden stem supports delicate round lenses that add a natural touch and complement the cups inside.
The small dimensions (11.22 x 5.91 x 3.94 inches) make this stand perfect for decorating desks in home offices.

On the other end of the spectrum are those with less space who are looking for a more compact grow station to adorn a shelf or counter.
This station is nearly four inches shorter than the standard size and uses height rather than length to compact planting space. Again, it keeps the same popular natural design without taking up too much space.

Who needs an aquarium full of fish when you can have one full of plants? This breeding station only has one cup for propagation, but it makes up for the lack of separate areas with a beautiful design.

This adorable design uses heart-shaped glasses suspended from a sturdy wooden stand instead of the traditional spherical glasses.
Ideal for a gift, there is also the possibility of having a single glass instead of two. This limits your growth potential, but works best if you’re short on space or on a tight budget.
When the roots are allowed to grow, they fill the space at the bottom of the heart for complex office function.
