What it is:
Flexible, breathable plant pockets that you can arrange to create a garden on any wall.
Why we love it:
The Woolly Pockets are the perfect way to bring plants into your life even if you have no yard. They can be used both indoors and out and have built-in moisture barriers. Made of felt derived from recycled plastic bottles, they allow your plants to breathe and are an eco-friendly choice. The breathable pockets allow the soil to aerate naturally, which reduces the need to drain the containers and also helps to conserve water. When the roots sense air they do something called air pruning. This is the natural process of stopping their own growth when they sense they've reached the limits of their space. This keeps the roots healthy and stops plants from becoming root-bound.
