It’s always a good idea to give something that provides tender loving care for the Plantita’s precious plant babies! Care kits are perfect for old or new plant lovers, since they contain all the essentials for their green little ones. This care kit from Beyond Botanical comes with Castile Leaf Coditioner, which promotes shine and healthy foliage, and Neem Oil Insecticide, which is an organic way to treat and prevent pests in the soil and foliage. The kit also comes with slow-release Osmocote fertilizer, which promotes growth and only needs replenishing after 3-6 months.

What Plantito/Plantita wouldn’t say no to gardening tools, especially if they’re as cute as the ones we found in Plants Manila? Even if they already have their own, it’s also good to have spares to have around, in case the old ones decide to retire from wear and tear, or in case someone decides to join or help the receiver with the yard work.
