The ashtray Joe Cactus was designed by Philippe Starck for Alessi.

The ashtray appears on the first look like a flower pot. The ash can easily be peened at the "cactus", it will then fall into the "flower pot".

The pot can be filled with water so that the cigarettes wont burn any longer. You can also use the ashtray as air freshener. To do so you only have to put scented oils or something similar into the water.
