O, The Oprah Magazine – September 2019

(Joyce) #1

  1. The Constant Gardener
    Your trailing bellflowers
    (above) needn’t wither come
    autumn, thanks to this self-
    illuminating and hydration-
    tracking indoor planter
    that can sustain a variety of
    mood-lifting blooms no
    matter the season. (ēdn
    SmallGarden, $199, and
    additional seed pods, $25;
    edntech.com)

  2. Crunch Time
    A hearty sprinkling of this
    gluten-free granola—rich
    with almonds (a plant-
    based protein), coconut,
    and goji berries—is just
    what your yogurt ordered.
    (Classic Superfood
    Granola, $16; sakara.com)

  3. Plop Plop, Fizz Fizz
    When you can’t snag a
    salad, get your plant fix
    with one of these vitamin-
    packed, water-soluble
    tablets. Each contains a
    market basket’s worth of
    greens like spinach,
    wheatgrass, kale, and
    algae. ($42 for 30 tablets;
    8greens.com)
    4. Give Peas a Chance
    Something your bar cart
    didn’t know it needed: this
    nonalcoholic spirit, which
    gets an herbaceous kick
    from a blend of peas and
    hay. Enjoy it over ice with
    tonic or soda once you’re
    rosé’d out. (Garden 108,
    $36; seedlipdrinks.com)
    5. Drink to That
    You don’t have to hit up a
    hip café to experience a
    quirky, petal-pushing
    beverage. The 41 recipes
    in Floral Libations let you
    tickle your taste buds
    from a.m. (with a hibiscus
    tea latte) to p.m. (with
    a strawberry-lavender
    milkshake). ($17;
    chroniclebooks.com)
    6. We’ll Bite
    No, these aren’t
    ornamental soaps; they’re
    dainty chocolate tiles
    imprinted with California-
    sourced edible flowers
    like calendulas and
    pansies. (Loria’s Flower
    Pressed Chocolates, $60
    for 12; loriastern.com)
