Garden anywhere

Plant inventions, or plant ingenuity, if you will, are having a heyday. A long one. Green living things = very important to all Western humans.

The latest one to catch my eye is this trapeze-like plant contraption. For those who live in a space-challenged apartment and have zero yard (or balcony, or fire escape) your life doesn’t have to be greenless and bleak.

Botanicals placed in these holders serve double-duty as art. This vintage 1970s macrame look comes from the endlessly creative, Seattle-based Ladies & Gentlemen studio. O Plant Hanger, from $48 (available for pre-order).
