Description
How does your garden grow?!
Receive a flat of 15 local eco-type native plants that are bird and butterfly-friendly--and a chance to participate in a new Mann project!

Horace Mann is also involved in a horticultural first:
Local eco-type native plants are combined in a complete carbon-friendly, no-waste format. Rather than plastic, Cow Pots made of recycled cow manure and straw are being used (http://cowpots.com/).
There are significant benefits to the environment and the plants themselves from using Cow Pots (http://cowpots.com/benefits-of-using-cowpots/).
