Look no further than Trader Joe’s latest plant offering—mixed foliage hipster pots. Reminiscent of the classic VW buses popular in the 70s, these groovy planters come in a few different colors (blue, green, and brown) with a peace symbol on the front and a license plate reading ‘PEACE’ on the back.
