Postcarden

Postcarden? Half postcard, half garden. Awesome. When I first came across these, I found out they are a company based in London and that buying one would be difficult because of seeds having to go through customs. Just recently they were added to a store called Brooklyn5and10 and they sell for $12.95. They have 3 designs: Botanical Garden, Green City, and Backyard Garden.

I’ve been in contact with Brooklyn5and10, so stay tuned for a chance to win one!
