BrandStar’s The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television Reveals How to Protect and Enhance Your Potted Plants

Potted plants can beautify your home, inside and out.  But they can also become digging places for pets, a tempting venue for pests and a spot for little ones who like to play in the plants. The Balancing Act TV show on Lifetime Television presents horticulturist Jason McCobb, who offers tips on protecting your potted plants while keeping the soil where it belongs. The segment aired in May and it can be viewed anytime at www.thebalancingact.com/coverup.

“The answer is Dirty Little Cover-Ups™, a unique, attractive way to preserve your plants indoors and outdoors on your covered patio,” he says. “They are water-resistant, corrugated covers that fit around plant stems, keeping the soil in – and intrusions out.

“Between my kids and my pets, dirt was always getting spilled on the floor,” says Anna Lighter, creator of the Dirty Little Cover-Ups™.  “I love plants in my house, but, unfortunately, so did my cats!  They were constantly playing in potted soil, making a real mess.”

“Not only did I have dirt on the floor, but my plants sometimes smelled like a litter box,” she says.

“Dirty Little Cover-Ups™ can be used on both indoor and outdoor plants. They’re great for plants that live under your covered patios or porches.  They’re not recommended for plants that are outside all the time.”

Cover-Ups also offer other advantages.  They keep soil moist – and help prevent weeds from sprouting.

Lighter says the covers are available in two sizes, which are easy to trim to fit your pot, and are imprinted with one of five natural art impressions – cocoa, ivy, wood, pebbles and rocks.  You can quickly and easily size them to fit your plants.

“Our viewers love innovative new gardening products,” says Doug Campbell, Executive Vice President of Programming for BrandStar Entertainment, the producers of The Balancing Act TV show. “And we know they will appreciate keeping their green thumbs clean, thanks to Dirty Little Cover-Ups™.”
