... and it's "green!"
... a recycled can and a rooted plant (this one is ivy) make a great gift for children to make and give to their teacher - or anyone really!
I punched holes in the can bottom and spray painted it (spray paint - not so "green") and my 8 year old did the rest.
She even got to have a little science lesson about how cuttings will root in water and make an entirely new plant.
It only took a week for roots to appear!
Ivy works great - you can also very easily root Christmas Cactus, Geraniums and Spider Plants.
