Deryk & Aidan - Founders

How It Started

Hi! We’re Deryk and Aidan — two mates who met on the Camino de Santiago in Spain back in 2023. Somewhere between the blisters and the bocadillos, we found common ground in our love of plants, tech, and doing things a little differently.

What We’re Growing

Fast-forward a few thousand steps (and coffees) later, and we’re now based in Australia, where we’ve launched Thirsty Pot — a cheeky, clever planter brand that merges beautiful design with smart watering tech.

Rooted in Friendship, Grown with Purpose

Our range of self-watering pots help your plants thrive with less guesswork — and more personality. It’s plant care with brains, beauty, and a bit of banter.

This is just the beginning. We’re so glad you’re here
