Leaf·Coat is a ready-to-use product that strengthens and protects plants against unwanted insects and damaging leaf fungi.
Made from natural latex that was originally developed to prevent evaporation, it creates a permeable, self-degradable barrier on the leaf, which still allows air and light to get through.
If the atmosphere gets too hot and humid (over 28ºC), Leaf·Coat helps prevent the plant from losing too much water through evaporation. At the same time, the natural latex layer it forms around the leaves, helps the plant breathe and stops it from 'sweating'. Then when the temperature drops, such as in winter months, Leaf·Coat safeguards against the cold by helping maintain the leaf temperature.
As an environmentally friendly alternative to pesticides, Leaf·Coat couldn’t be more suitable or safe to use. Reducing the need to use pesticides also saves money. And unlike synthetic and toxic products it has a pleasant smell, and doesn’t irritate. Because Leaf·Coat doesn’t get absorbed by the leaves, it doesn’t affect the taste of the fruit either.
There’s no need to mix Leaf·Coat with water – simply apply straight from the bottle, preferably from an atomiser. Spray the leaves and flowers completely, and repeat this about two times a week until a fortnight before the end of the flowering period.
Within a few hours of application, a very thin elastic layer – 1.5 microns thick – forms on the leaves. Its beneficial effects last for up to two weeks until it is naturally decomposed by light or sunlight.

Just what I was looking for. The coir moss pole gives my monstera some much-needed support and allows it to grow upwards. I've had the pole for two weeks and the plant is already looking much happier. Thanks!
Had a desire box was ok but one plant not potted.. others very small.. rescue box from else’s where bigger plants and stronger looking
Had to grab this one as the pastel green was so pretty. There is a water resivour at the bottom to stop plants sitting in water so its perfect for orchids but at the moment I'm using it for another plant.
Wanted one of these for ages so I had to jump at the size and price of this plant. Stunning large leaves and has already grown loads
