The Pot
The Quadra pot from Eco Forms is a cost-effective, lightweight alternative to plastic pots. They are made from rice hulls, a renewable resource that will begin to biodegrade in about five years. We are offering your choice of four beautiful shades: Avocado, Harvest, Turquoise, and Sand.
The Plant
Each kit includes either a small live Sansevieria or Haworthia plant in a four inch pot. We've chosen these plants for their compact size, ease of care, and hearty dispositions that make them adaptable for many different conditions.
The Potting Supplies
Clay pebbles: provide a layer of drainage at the base of your pot
Activated charcoal: reduces mold and mildew buildup in your potted plant
Potting mix: provides important nutrients and acts as a growing medium
Gravel: looks pretty on top of the potting mix and helps retain moisture
