  1. Air Plant Nourishing Spray from Organics Oddities, $15 - I have accidentally murdered two air plants in my life. The first, I unknowingly drowned with bad info off the internet.

Anyway, feed your damn plants.

pot it like it’s hot

There are so many styles of gardening supplies these days because so many different companies are getting in on the green stuff. If you have traditional taste, then there are options aplenty. But, there are more and more brands emerging with contemporary and genre-defying options these days, too.

P.S. Just because something isn’t designed for gardening doesn’t mean you can’t turn it into a showstopping plant piece! If you find a vintage piece that you think would make a great pot, then go for it. Maybe an old water pitcher would work better for your house babies than for entertaining. Whatever it is, make it your own and your guests will be delighted with the little bit of flair you added to your space (or your gift recipient’s space, cough cough).
