Individuals who don't live in climates that are warm year-round likely find use for indoor planters, and Urbz is a modular planter that can be designed to users' preferences.
The Urbz comes in an endearing, glass orb shape that can be attached to walls. The glass base allows for users to see the soil from which the seeds will grow into plants, and the product can be used to grow a variety of herbs.
