We remember when there were so many kids toys around the house that you just wanted to go out and bury them all. (Now it is shoes and purses) Here is a squeaky latex toy that lets you do just that- "If and when you get tired of looking at your Plant-Me Pet on your desk or shelf, you can literally bury the sculpture in a pot of soil (head-first, so as to cover the seeds), water it and place it in the sun, and -- voilá! -- the rubber will decompose and a plant will sprout." Made in Barcelona, home of the famous Stuffbump. from ::Branch, via ::Big Perk
UPDATE: Hey, I searched, really! But we covered the designers (and the Plant-me-Pet) earlier here. thanks, Petz
