I’m trying to make my little green products known in the USA.
My company (Weeplant Corp. – http://www.weeplant.com) is a woman-owned California based company which grows locally and commercializes the “Pinky Trees”.

The Pinky Trees are a range of real baby living plants growing in a two inches customizable capsule.
The plants are all baby succulents and cacti selected amongst the most resistant and slow-growing species.

They don’t need too much care (watering between once a month to once every three months) and can stay in their incubator between 6 months (some succulents) and 2 years (most of the cacti).

The Pinky Trees are the ideal giveaway for companies who look for a true green, living symbol for their communication and marketing plans. In fact I believe a real baby plant to take care of, is a much more effective message to help consumer choose more eco-friendly products than lifeless giveaways.

The Pinky Trees can be used as:
- Keychain
- Handbag or cell phone accessory
- Children little green “Tamagotchi”
- Necklace pendant (teenagers in particular use them this way)
- Little desktop garden
- Birth or children’s party favor
The capsules can also be imprinted with brand names or logo.

Also for each 4 Pinky Trees sold a tree is planted to our partnership with American Forests.

I hope you will like my little green friends and will help me plant new trees !

Thanks
