Plant-Me Pets: Melon

Award-winning, eco-friendly design for play or planting!

Plant-Me Pets love me, bury me. Award-winning, eco-friendly design for play or planting. At a glance, Plant-Me Pets appear to be just another crazy collectible toy. But bury one head first in soil and the pet becomes a plant! With seeds for eyes, a Plant-Me Pet forces one to decide between sentiment and function – love your pet or eat fresh fruits? Created by design provocateur Martí Guixé, each pet (Pumpkin, Melon, Tomato) is handmade in Spain of biodegradable latex. Plant-Me Pets are 4” to 6” tall and packaged in reusable cardboard tubes 2 3/8” W x 7” or 7 1/2” H. Winner of a DesignPlus Award in 2004. Select from three styles: Pumpkin (orange), Melon (green), and Tomato (red)—left to right, standing, second photo). Adorable Melon is oh-so green!
