Dallas startup Sol Planted wants to help people improve the odds of having a green thumb. The company matches customers to their ideal plants and offers exotic, yet easy-to-care-for tropicals. Founder Zawwar Kahn sets his service apart with white-glove hand delivery and a plant care walk-through, reports Emily Heft in D Magazine.
Sol Planted kicked off its launch at the Boho Market in McKinney on Saturday, and will be at CURATED at Legacy West on March 22. An online store is soon to follow.
"Each purchase will aid reforestation efforts around the world, thanks to Sol Planted’s partnership with nonprofit One Tree Planted," Heft writes.
