joeyplanter0.jpg Happy Holidays! 2013 is around the corner, and we’re finishing up this year with more of our annual coupons from our favorite stores and over 30 giveaways from now through Christmas!

Joey Roth will always be the first NOTCOT reader i ever met in person - and that was probably around 6 years ago in NY. From our posts about his work back in 2005 to the big Sorapot launch in 2008 and such precise, beautiful products since… this year he is generously giving two winners awesome prizes! The first winner will receive a pair planters (one terracotta and one gray) - these planters are easy to water, and will pull the water as they need them (thus, great for travelers or absent minded plant owners). The second winner will receive a super bundle of his ceramic speakers and subwoofer! Joey’s iconic speakers have been updated this year by the addition of a stunning ceramic subwoofer!

THE GOODS: One winner will receive two planters, one in each color. The second winner will receive a set of ceramic speakers and subwoofer.

TO WIN: Musical green thumbs, leave a comment here sharing the song you think plants will love to grow to by 12/11 PST for a chance to win. Winner will be contacted via email.

Morning. (La vie en rose - Louis Armstrong) plays as the sun comes invited by my open windows, some water is dropped as a waterfall made of hands over the one rose i have. I just wanted to see water drops staying still, a frozen moment, covering their mesmerising curtains of red beautiful lips. The mood changes as the thoughts race through the guitar sounds and slow motion pictures of her in my mind (Jon Gomm - Topeka). But this is neither the time nor the place to enjoy the beauty and the sound. Thou i will give her a little bit more time to relax (Quantic - Time is the Enemy), then i push her towards (XTC - Making plans for Nigel) the edge of my plans. She has to stay red and alive for much longer than a couple of songs. I have to say goodbye to her, as i walk out of the room (Bloodgroup - My arms) she stretched towards the sun. She wanted to wait for me. She needed the sun.

----- Maisan 06.12.12 13:38

With Beethoven!!!!

----- Patricia 06.12.12 13:38

Any classical piano piece - gives a good rythm for the plants to grow to. I personally like Satie, Cage, and Debussy.
Check out this article on the effect of classical music on vineyards http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2007/06/music_and_wine

----- Miyon 06.12.12 13:37

Definitely ‘Mr. Blue Sky’ by Electric Light Orchestra! Brilliant!

----- Tyler 06.12.12 13:34

It being the season. I think plants would love to grow to its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

:)

----- Lucas lund 06.12.12 13:29

GOING UP THE COUNTRY, by canned heat, it sure will make them grow to reach the speakers and bounce

----- Jb R 06.12.12 13:28

“What A Wonderful World”- Louis Armstrong

----- hayley 06.12.12 13:27

The Beatles - She’s Leaving Home

----- Andria 06.12.12 13:21

Wow! These are gorgeous beyond words. My plants love Belle & Sebastian — Another Sunny Day.

----- Julie 06.12.12 13:20

I’d play “Slice of Heaven” by Herbs, a New Zealand reggae band.

----- Ed 06.12.12 13:19

Hmm, I’d suggest two cuts from (played in a loop, of course)Miles Davis albums. From his ‘58 Sessions - “On Green Dolphin Street” and from Kind of Blue - “All Blues”. A spiritual kinda sonic vibe generates with these songs. Life affirming for flora ‘n fauna too!

----- Calvin Jenkins 06.12.12 13:19

Eric Clapton’s, Let It Grow. is a great song and pretty relevant. Or if you want modern, (i’m not sure plants do) MS. DYNAMITE Seed Will Grow.
But I’ll bet whatever tune comes out of those beautiful speakers sounds fantastic.
Oh! anything by Robert Plant, LOL.

----- Tom Wykes 06.12.12 13:19

Spanish guitar

----- Diana 06.12.12 13:18

“A taste of Honey” - Herb Alpert

----- kelsey 06.12.12 13:18

----- Cole 06.12.12 13:14

My Parsely Aralia and Wheat Grass might enjoy growing to Colour In Your Hands (Scandinavian Edit) by D.L.I.D.

----- Andy Stoltz 06.12.12 13:12

Talking Heads - Nothing but flowers.

----- Matt Peckham 06.12.12 13:12

I’d play Simple Beginnings by Fred V. A beautiful atmospheric tune to encourage the little guy.

----- James Nisbet 06.12.12 13:12

“Tesselate” by Alt-J

----- Seth B 06.12.12 13:10

Singing in the Rain!

----- Mikell Johnson 06.12.12 13:08

I would play Queen’s Somebody to Love, and hope that they loved me enough not to die!

----- Jen 06.12.12 13:08

Those speakers would be great for blaring “Singin in the Rain.” I know the plants around my place love to groove to that tune.

----- Chad 06.12.12 13:07

You know, for most of these contest entries, the “right” answer is completely objective. Not this time!

Stevie Wonder - “The Secret Life of Plants”

The title track to a wonderfully weird “documentary” which is almost completely pseudoscientific woo.

----- Brian 06.12.12 13:07

I’d play Dr. Greenthumb by Cypress Hill. You need some bass bumping if you really want your plants to grow. Plus, when they grow up, they’ll be hardy enough to wear a gold chain and pendant.

----- Neil 06.12.12 13:06

I need seed by Thee Oh Sees

----- Charles 06.12.12 13:06

----- Leslie 06.12.12 12:58

the scorpions - hurricane 2000

----- Rihards 06.12.12 12:57

“Sunshine (Adagio In D Minor)” by John Murphy from the Sunshine Soundtrack

Because, you know, sun and all…and its super epic.

----- Lily 06.12.12 12:56

I would play “I’m from Barcelona - Always Spring” and watch them grow.

----- Markus 06.12.12 12:55

Grow for me- Little Pet Shop of Horrors!

----- Amanda N 06.12.12 12:51

Anything by Sigur Ros! The words may not make sense, but the music is haunting, mesmorizing and just the thing to grow and relax in the sun while listening to!

----- Jenni 06.12.12 12:51

I’ll definitely put them Frank Sinatra’s Fly me to the Moon so they grow as high as possible!

----- Steeven 06.12.12 12:50

Plants in my house seem to enjoy Symphony of Science. http://melodysheep.bandcamp.com/album/symphony-of-science-bundle-v16

----- Brian B 06.12.12 12:47
