Dobbies’ introduce brand new range of sustainable houseplants
The UK’s leading garden centre retailer has launched a coir pot houseplant range in stores across the UK
The latest collection of indoor greenery at Dobbies has become even greener by being planted in sustainable coconut coir pots. The plants come in organic, degradable cultivation pots which are made from natural rubber and coconut shells that allow air to easily pass through, supporting healthy root growth for plants.
Houseplant Buyer, Claire Bishop, who has been working on the range behind the scenes, said: “Houseplants are naturally a happy home update and the launch of the coir pot range has the added benefit of not only being good for your home, but good for the environment too.
“We are always looking at ways to enhance the environmentally-friendly credentials of our collections and the coir pots stood out to us as a must-have addition, being made from natural, organic materials that are fully degradable.
“Firm favourites that feature in the striking line-up include the ever-popular Calathea and an eye-catching Pleated Sansevieria. Greenery made greener has been one of my favourite ranges to work on to-date and we hope customers love the range as much as we do.”
Dobbies make caring for the environment a priority. The Dobbies team is always developing new ranges and products that can help customers make greener choices and offer eco-friendly alternatives. Find your local store and browse the online collection at dobbies.com
