> New craze: Mobile pet trees!
Bookmark topic
This cool key chain contains a cactus that you carry around until it outgrows the key chain then remove and plant like normal. The latest craze from Japan, Pet Trees are set to take the UK by storm! It can go on a mobile phone, handbag, rucksack or any accessory you desire.
Once it out-grows the bell jar, it can be removed and planted in plant pot.
Water every two weeks (in summer season), every once a month (in winter season) or follow the instructions (depending on the type of captus/plant) by placing bottom of bell jar in a saucer of water.
I have a one which is a long green captus with white spikes which is so cute! I named it Spikey!

It looks similar to this one:
I will take a picture of mine so you can see it

How awsome!? What else will they think of next? Kind of cool, instead of having it in your phone, its dangling from it! Ha Ha Ha...
Where can you get this?
Thanks, KLG2992- Kevin

It's like that of the TOMAGOCHI craze in the late 90's - virtual pet ! But this one looks like a BONSAI ! Nice !

haha... i got one a year ago, when i was doing some work, visited some korean guy's place where he was growing trays and trays of these things on his balcony... he was to sell them at a local gift market....
i hung it in my car (on the dash) for a while, before giving it away to a friend... very hardy little things that require a little water....

@frubin - Yeah . . . but this looks more 'livelier' though bulkier to carry around . . . or is it? as the Tomagochi is like a mini-Gameboy in black & white . . .

@frubin - Yeah . . . the cactus (2nd edited image) looks good too

Yup, looks like it's a delicate thing to take care of

Is that cover-glass breakable?
