Tomatoes on your X'mas tree

This plant-and-grow kit is great for older kids, especially if you want to introduce them to gardening. The cherry tomato kit can become a second X'mas tree within about 10 days of planting the seeds. The well-packed gardening box comes with mud, cocopeat, natural protection spray, natural nutrition spray, nutrition powder, a planter and seeds - all that a young green-thumbed goblin needs to get started with a mini home garden.
