No-Fuss Flower Planters

'Drop and Grow' Adds Color to Your Garden without Digging

— May 22, 2015 — Eco
Costa Farms introduced its 'Drop and Grow' line of planters that give home gardens vibrant colorful flowers without the exhaustion of yard work. There is no digging required when using this product.

'Drop and Grow' works exactly how it sounds: choose the flowers, pop them out of their planter, place them on the ground with some mulch and then just add water.

The sedum tiles used for 'Drop and Grow' are available in a variety of textures and colors. They are also extremely versatile and drought-resistant. This means gardens can be filled with annual and perennials such as angelonia, lantana, cuphea, mondo grass and liriope all year long.

By eliminating the frustrations of digging, 'Drop and Grow' is the hassle-free way to add bountiful color to any garden.
Trend Themes

3. Ready-to-plant Products - Increasing popularity of pre-made, easy-to-plant gardening products that require little to no preparation, appealing to consumers who have little time or experience with gardening.
Industry Implications
