If you’ve been around Trader Joe’s for an autumn or two, you know we’re fans of the calaveras at this time of year. In advance of Dios de los Muertos, our plants & flowers section is annually populated with a shrub-filled skull selection that only continues to expand. The latest is Trader Joe’s Sugar Skull with Premium Foliage. First, it’s important to note that although these are called “Sugar Skulls,” they are not actually made of sugar. The name is just a reference to the tradition of giving edible skull treats made from cane sugar to sweet-toothed children in celebration of the Day of the Dead. In fact, these Sugar Skulls are ceramic, and definitely not meant to eaten. They are, however, definitely meant to be filled with Premium plants—and that’s just what we’ve done! You’ll find these ceramic Skulls in our Plants & Flowers section displaying a variety of foliage, including Philodendron, Peperomia, and Calathea plant varieties. We have a West Coast and an East Coast grower, so specific plants will vary, depending on your Trader Joe’s location. Each houseplant is long-lasting with proper care, and the decorative Skull planters will make a unique statement on display in your home. Pick up all three Sugar Skull colors (including: blue with cream trim, black with white trim, and white with black trim)—or choose your favorite to pair with the rest of your Trader Joe’s Skull collection!
