A tiny living plant I can wear? Um, hell-to-the-friggin-yes! These adorable GemSprout pendants are approximately 1.5" tall and come with detailed instructions on how to care for them. (Alot easier than you might think!) The eco-capsule is made of recycled plastic, and contains an organic plant from Central Florida. Best part? They cost a mere $7-$10 USD each.
Surprisingly, they're almost completely maintenance free. Like all plants they require earth, sun, and water. Each is planted in a special nutrient-rich soil pad that promotes water absorption and strong stems. Once a month, simply place your GemSprout in a shallow dish of water for 2 - 3 minutes. For cacti, water only every 12 weeks. A few hours of sunlight each day will keep it happy. And, once you notice the plant is outgrowing the capsule (normally between 6 months and a year) simply replant it in a larger container, or out in the garden.
GemSprouts is a USA based company trying to make a difference in the world by offering high quality living plant pendants that are not only unique and beautiful, but inexpensive and help the environment. All of our pendants are made of recycled plastic and the plants come from pesticide and chemical free greenhouses.
