In an interview with the media, she shared: “I have fake plants and flowers, but these were the only two real ones in my back garden and they are both dead, so it saves trying to get the plants out of the pot. I decided to get some spray paint and see if it works. My husband thought I was mad but it’s so quick as well. It didn’t take me long, plus I have some of the paint left in the can.”

The post quickly viral on social media, showcasing her excellent hack online.

Her post has garnered significant attention from netizens, and Lisa Harvey has received an outpouring of praise for her creative thinking after sharing her cost-effective solution.

One person said: We all need a chuckle to counter act all the bad news. Keep smiling and get out your spray paint.  

A second wrote: Hmm, this global warming sure is killing a lot of plants... let's get out our aerosolized paint and spray them all to fix it!. 

While a third commented: Our local Texas Roadhouse restaurant spray painted their dead shrubs. In Ohio. 

Someone else said: Boy in that country you get bashed for the simplest things, they must have very thin skins across the pond. Good for her saving those plants.  

Another added: She’s an idiot…. Those are trees that take care of themselves…. They rarely die…. She probably doesn’t have proper drainage  

The cost-effective hack

The green spray paint she used cost just $5 in U.S. dollars, making it a very affordable option.
