Second shoot basket

Seconde Pousse is a plant basket which costs 25 euros. It consists of a set of plantsworth around 60 euros. This price difference is explained by the condition of the plants, they are small shoots that are a little tired or damaged, which we cannot send as is. They are, however, living plants, which will grow and give beautiful leaves, however they have some defects, for example two or three leaves could have been torn off by clumsily causing a plant to fall (it happens!).

The ambition of this surprise basket is to limit plant waste. We are already working in this direction because from our store in Paris 13, we are offering “ TooGoodToGo  » filled with “ tired ” plants when we have a few some.

We also take time to rehabilitate damaged plants. However, we decided to offer this basket to share our tropical plants with plant lovers, those who want to live in a jungle and care for, cut and repot plants on a daily basis.

Give these plants some time, and proper care, and you will see them grow, produce new leaves, shoots, and become big and beautiful !

We are working to limit our waste, our use of plastic and recycle our packaging as best we can. Here are some of the actions we have put in place :

• Recycling of cardboard in cushioning, to also better protect your orders:)
• Most of the jars used for terrariums are made from recycled glass.
• Limit the use of plastic , our plant packaging is made from recycled plastic.
• Some of our plants are in recycled plastic POTS .
• Very soon the soil that we will use for our terrariums, the kits and that which will be sold will be French and organic, natural and respectful of the environment.
• Our pozzolan is organic and natural.
• We are fighting against plant waste thanks to surprise baskets.

With these commitments, we have bigger goals for the years to come. We want to no longer have any plastic packaging for 2022, offer more French and environmentally friendly accessories, and offer locally produced plants.

This year we also want to organize eco-responsible events, combining plants, recycling and respect for the environment.

How about a recycling project around terrarium? To stay informed of our actions you can subscribe to our Instagram or Facebook.
