What a great back to school gift, birthday gift or simply a treat for yourself.
Plant Pops are wrapped in assorted bright tropical colored waxed tissue paper with decorative leaf cording. They literally POP UP when the box is opened.
Your 2in Plant Pop comes in two themes:
Back to School - Comes with one plant wrapped in tropical tissue that is tied with decorative cording, a twig pencil, and a scroll which has the plant care instructions written on it for soil and Hydroponic growing (if apply).
Birthday Theme - Comes with one plant wrapped in tropical tissue that is tied with decorative cording, a birthday accessory, and a scroll which has the plant care instructions written on it for soil and Hydroponic growing (if apply).
*You also have the option of creating a card message when you place your order!
Monstera Swiss Cheese Plant
A Feng Shui plant that embraces growth, prosperity, and positive energy. The "Swiss Cheese" holes in the plant add a little playfulness.
Light - Bright Indirect light
Water - Weekly water in 2in grower's pot but may need to add a splash of water in between to keep the soil slightly moist.
Use distilled, reverse osmosis or filtered water for your plants. Rain water may also be used on your soil plants but it can become smelly if stored. Never use unfiltered tap water due to the chemicals in it!
Before repotting your plant
Make sure your plant is happy and growing well before you decide to repot it. It will grow nicely for several months in the 2in pot until it needs to be repotted. We recommend only going up 2in in container size when repotting. From this 2in pot, you would go to a 4in pot. We suggest using loose, breathable, well draining soil. Remove the plant carefully from its grower's pot trying not to disturb the root ball. Once removed, place it into a 4in pot with a base layer of the above noted soil. Fill in the rest of the pot around the root ball with the same above mentioned soil.
Hydroponic - ONLY USE DISTILLED, REVERSE OSMOSIS OR FILTERED WATER!
We have used the Monstera Swiss Cheese plant in Hydroponics. To change your plant into a Hydro plant, Strip, Clip, Wash, and Dip.
-Strip all the soil off the roots
-Clip all the roots back to no more than 1/2in
-Wash the roots thoroughly
-Dip - Place your plant into a container of water making sure a node is submerged. You will need to do weekly water changes for your Hydroponic plant to ensure the plant has a good supply of fresh water and oxygen. Once you have established an inch of water roots (6-8wks), you may start feeding your plant. We use our Jungle Juice Plant Food every six weeks for our Hydro plants. The Jungle Juice Plant Food is available on our site.
**Again, use distilled, reverse osmosis or filtered water for your plants. Rain water may also be used on your soil plants but it can become smelly if stored. Never use unfiltered tap water due to the chemicals in it!
