A Plant-Based Lifestyle For Plants?

If you bought yourself a bunch of houseplants during the pandemic, you were far from alone. Many Malaysians exercised their green thumbs during the lockdown and even helped to keep some nurseries in business as they turned their business online. But for those of us that might not have been successful in keeping our green friends in the best of health, there might be a helping hand. Plantonic. It’s the world’s first 4 in 1 organic fertiliser essence that is environmentally friendly, non toxic and safe for children and pets - and it’s made entirely from plant-based ingredients.
