Cress Head Dog Novelty Planter Grow Kit – Grey

The Bees Seeds Cress Head Dog Novelty Planter in Grey is a fun and engaging grow-your-own cress kit featuring an adorable puppy-shaped ceramic planter and fast-growing edible cress.

Finished in a clean, neutral grey glaze, the charming dog planter looks great on kitchen windowsills, desks, shelves, or in a child's bedroom. As the cress grows, the bright green shoots create a wonderfully wild head of edible "hair", making this a particularly entertaining introduction to growing from seed.

The complete set includes fast-growing cress seeds and compressed compost discs, making it quick and straightforward to get started. Within just a few days, fresh green shoots begin to appear and can later be trimmed and enjoyed in sandwiches, salads, and garnishes.
