An automated plant irrigation system provides a habitable plant environment that automatically generates moisture, sunlight, and proper soil conditions for a plant, and allows the plant to be displayed and transferred between indoor and outdoor environments. The system provides generally artificial means to grow the plant, so that the plant can grow indoors. A plant container is used to contain and display the plant and soil. Once the plant has grown to a desired size and configuration, the plant container can transfer the plant outdoors for natural growth conditions and presentation. The container may include an ornamental design and be encapsulated by a transparent housing to enhance the display of the plant. A light source directionally emits artificial sunlight on the plant. A liquid dispensing device dispensed water and liquid nutrients onto the plant and soil. A control system automatically controls dispensing moisture and artificial sunlight.
