Summer is the season of sunshine. As excited as some of us may be about it, chances are no one is more excited than all of your plants who wait patiently all year round for those bright warm-weather rays. So, why not add another plant to your collection? If you’re on the fence (pun intended), this latest planter from Trader Joe’s is bound to have you reaching for your car keys ASAP.

Trader Joe’s is selling these seriously adorable ferns housed in fruit-shaped planters. I’m convinced that no planter has ever been better suited to summer sunshine than these orange, pineapple, and strawberry-shaped pots. Each one comes with a little pair of sunglasses, and the plants themselves look like hair. Bringing home a new plant is like bringing home a new little friend!

Trader Joe’s shoppers know there’s no need to head to an expensive nursery or plant store to get beautiful flowers and plants. So, of course, fans were quick to take to Instagram to share their excitement about these sweet little fruit planter ferns. “Omg these are iconic,” wrote one very enthusiastic commenter. “I got the orange guy yesterday! Sooooo cute!” wrote another.

At just $8 each, these cute planters are practically a steal! And, once your fern outgrows its pot you can rehome in a larger pot, then plant a new little plant in its place. The planters are made from durable ceramic, so they’ll last for many summers to come, bringing you joy and a dose of cuteness with each passing season.

While they’re designed to be indoor planters, there’s no reason you can’t use these adorable little ferns to decorate your outdoor space for barbecues and other dinner parties. Luckily, they have their shades on, so they can enjoy their time directly in the summer sun.
