This Valentine's Day, give a plant in a package. It will last longer than cut flowers!
Implications - The featured product is called a Pocket Garden and grows a plant from the silver bag that it comes packaged in. The bag is leak-proof so you don't have to worry about messes when watering your plant. There is also a special compost that will help the plant grow from the tiny seeds that are placed in the bag. You can keep the plant in the packaging or move it to a new pot once it starts to outgrow its first home. The Pocket Garden collection has many different plants and flowers to choose from.
