As a plant lover, most of the open shelving and floor space of my one-bedroom apartment has some type of foliage. I have snake plants, a fiddle leaf fig, pothos vines, dieffenbachia, and spider plants galore. Sadly, most of the plants I own aren’t safe for pets, which wasn’t a problem until my boyfriend and I brought home Rayla, our sweet and sleek black cat who loves to explore (read: chew on leaves). She’s made her way through the better part of a spider plant and several jalapeño plants, so when given the chance to test out apet-friendly plant subscriptionI happily made space for new pots and plants that I don’t have to worry (as much) about Rayla getting into.
什么是窗台？
植物使我们开心，但它们可能会让您的动物生病。
The Sill是一家受到广泛喜爱的在线植物零售商，尤其是为高质量的室内植物和经典，永恒而闻名的花盆和盆栽配件. We’ve loved The Sill’s工厂递送服务和在线植物研讨会过去，这种订阅并没有让我们失望。
What is the pet-friendly plant subscription?
检查您的植物是否对宠物友好，或者将它们伸出来，从爪子伸出来。
窗台Pet-Friendly Plant Subscriptionis just what it sounds like: a subscription that gets you a non-toxic plant from The Sill each month. Plants in this subscription are non-toxic to pets like cats and dogs, and many are safe for other animals, like bunnies! If you’re looking to expand your plant collection without worrying about your furry friends, this subscription makes it easy.
您可以从宠物友好的植物订阅中期待什么？
我喜欢植物随附的象牙色盆。注意：ZZ-Plant，右，不是订阅的一部分。
The subscription is set up to send you one 6-inch diameter plant and one 7-inch wide ceramic planter every month. When you first sign up, you select either white or black pots, so all your plants will come in the same color pot, though the shape of pot may differ. I received three plants and two pot styles during testing.
每个月，一种植物都有一个安全的包裹，可防止植物直立和土壤溢出。送货时很容易解开植物和锅，尽管我建议您在外面这样做，以防止宽松的土壤弄脏房屋。您需要尽快而不是稍后再种植新的绿色植物，因此手头上有额外的土壤会很有用。每种植物还带有护理卡。尽管不是特定于植物本身的特定，但它提供了一些有关如何重新定位和浇水植物以获得最佳生长的信息。
每种发送的植物都是宠物友好的，这意味着如果它们靠近猫或狗（或者，您知道，它都会对您的猫或狗都有毒性）。我收到了一个蓝星蕨，箭头瓦里加塔和Calathea Makoyana, only the latter of which is currently available to purchase online as part off The Sill’s宠物友好的植物收藏.
There were some hiccups with getting the plants to my house. They didn’t come consistently as I expected, and more than once I had to reach out to The Sill to see if a plant was lost in the shipping process or if I was forgotten. Customer service was always kind and helpful—getting me a new plant quickly after contacting them—but it’s worth considering if you already have trouble receiving mail.
植物如何保持
The plants I received are quickly outgrowing their pots.
我收到的所有三种植物都健康安全。第三个是最大的，我犹豫要在给定的锅中锅，因为它已经具有如此大的根源。无论如何我都用了窗台上的锅，而且增长良好。虽然6英寸的植物适合7英寸的花盆，但我希望我可以选择一个更大的锅选项，以便植物有更多的生长空间，因此我不必尽快再重新存放它们。
I’ve had each plant for a few months, and I’m at the point where I need to repot. The Calathea Makoyana is growing wildly, with variegated leaves that are shiny and perk up towards direct sunlight. I keep all three plants in indirect light, and my cute cat doesn’t bother them. Even though the plants are non-toxic to her, I don’t want her to chew on leaves or dig through the dirt—for her digestion and my apartment’s sake!
I’ll also note that the plants are medium-sized, per The Sill’s site, which is relative to what other plants you may have. The Arrowroot plant is now over 2 feet tall, and each pot is hefty; all of this is to say that you’ll want sturdy places to put these plants, not a thin shelf or window ledge. I keep mine on a plant stand, on the floor by my desk, and on my bedside table.
您应该从窗台上获得宠物友好的植物订阅吗？
门槛将向您发送植物，以帮助您在宠物周围时保持安心。
即使有一些运输问题，我们也会说是。显然，这种植物订阅是针对有宠物的人的，但是任何正在寻找优质绿化的人都可以受益。这些植物是中型的，因此您可以使用它们来亮起柜台或书架，甚至可以在窗户或地板上收集它们以使您的空间变亮。另外，从窗台上的订阅就像每个月给您未来的自我礼物一样。如果您没有宠物并且不打算，那么门槛也有常规Plant Lover Subscription有多种植物。
