For Trader Joe's, the month of October is a marathon of releasing pumpkin-flavored and Halloween-themed products [1] that make every Fall enthusiast weak at the knees. From the drool-inducing pumpkin spice bagels [2], to spooky yoga skeleton air plants [3], and even a pumpkin spice face mask [4], the grocery store gods truly know how to take a season and run with it. The latest example? Trader Joe's new pumpkin trees.
Avid shoppers have been sharing photos of the new $8 item on shelves at Trader Joe's locations, and we can't get over how perfectly festive they are. And because we know you're wondering . . . this is not an actual tree that grows pumpkins, it's an ornamental eggplant [5]. The instructions on the product at Trader Joe's suggest cutting the stems, placing the "tree" in water, and enjoying the sweet eye-catching display.
Not only is this new product the perfect indoor seasonal decoration [6], but it's incredibly chic and an ideal way to brighten up a room. Check out photos of shoppers loving their pumpkin trees from Trader Joe's ahead, and make sure to pick one up on your next grocery run.
