Eco Pockets - Plant Your Joy!

Eco Pockets form a plantation unit for indoor and semi-indoor spaces. The unit functions as a sustainable solution allowing easy cultivation of flowering plants, succulents and even provides the joy growing your own herbs and small vegetables at your ease. It harnesses the moisture-retaining property of Ply-Split Braiding while minimizing the need for frequent plant care. This is a multipurpose product, with being a piece of art for the wall, it promotes planting in a sustainable way along with space conservation since it essentially grows vertically.
