And the best part of all?
There’s no watering required at all.
A savvy woman named Lisa Harvey, who isn’t particularly green-fingered, took to Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and shared a snap of her dead brown potted plants.
However, in a second photo she revealed how she gave them a new lease of life – all thanks to some quick-drying green paint.
Green and healthy, the plants now look like they’re totally thriving – and people would be none the wiser to Lisa’s clever trick.
Alongside the image, she penned: “Not good with plants etc always end up dead, but thought of this little tip……spray paint them green to bring them back to life – no watering required!”
