Product – Plants
One of Green Garden’s best-sellers includes the Kulabo plant, an herbal. This plant has medical properties and can help cure your coughs and colds. This plant is sold at a price of 45 pesos.
Another best-seller is the Mayana plant. The Mayana, just like Kulabo, is also an herbal plant. It’s got a mix of red-violet and green leaves, which have the ability to treat your wounds. They are sold for 45 pesos.
For only 35 pesos, you can buy the Pandakaki plant. It bears cute white flowers that go well with its healthy green leaves. This plant is simple but beautiful, and can grow to large sizes.
The Mango seedling is another plant in demand. With bright green leaves, the Mango seedling is a young plant that would eventually grow into a tree over lots of time. You can buy this plant, and other seedlings line Jackfruit and Star Apple, for 50 pesos.
Green Garden also sells unique customized plants. We have plants that are built to shape like jars or other objects and animals, like reindeers. One example of this plant is the Chinese Holy Jar, which is a very unique plant worth 600 pesos.
