This New Nail Trend Lets You Grow a Plant Right on Your Fingers

It turns out succulents aren’t just for lazy people who want low-maintenance plants. They are now for lazy people who want to show off their green thumb, literally. Australian artist Rox Borg is the mastermind behind the technique that allows you to grow these plants on your nail bed. The trick is this special adhesive made for plants that help attach them to the nail bed where they will continue to blossom. Don’t worry, they’ll eventually come off—at which point you can actually move your plant to its natural habitat. While we’re not sure we’ll be rocking this trend on the reg, this technique could come in handy for Halloween—Poison Ivy, anyone?
