Three orange pumpkin-shaped planters with green succulents on a marble surface.

Listen up, plant parents. Halloween might look different this year due to the pandemic, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t dress up your children (we’re talking about your plant babies) for the season.

Florida-based Etsy store Print A Pot is selling a collection of 3D-printed planters that look like pumpkins. Made from a plant-based plastic, the pots become even more realistic once you transfer your succulents, making it seem as though they have oddly-shaped vines and stems.

The planters come in different colors and sizes. There’s the traditional bright orange, as well as cookies and cream, gold, and even wood, among others. As for sizes, the smallest pumpkin ($20) measures 3 x 3 x 2.5 inches, the medium one ($25) measures 4 x 4 x 3 inches, and the largest pumpkin ($32) measures 5 x 5 x 4 inches. You can buy all three options for $73, which would not only save you a few dollars but also turn your desk into a cute little pumpkin patch.

These gourds also come with a hole at the bottom to make sure your succulents don’t drown while trick-or-treating.

If you have air plants, they too can wear something for Halloween. The store offers a special pumpkin planter which can be hung using a string or fishing line. And, if you already have too many pumpkin decor at home, they also have other designs such as a tiny elephant planter, one that looks like a pineapple, and even a miniature villa.

What will your succulent be dressing up as this year?
