Patch Plant Hotel keeps indoor plants healthy and happy.

"We all know the crushing disappointment when you return from holiday to find your plant has gone from green lusciousness, to a burnt, dry bunch of twigs," CEO of Patch Freddie Blackett told House Beautiful on Tuesday. "We wanted to open the hotel to give a helping hand to the increasing number of plant parents."

To book one of the plant rooms, visit the Patch Plants website and enter your plants' arrival and departure date, plus how many plants to check in. After the booking is confirmed, just drop off your green friends at the hotel. 

The hotel is open for bookings until Sept. 5 with 100 rooms available for plants.

No word on whether the green guests get Miracle-Gro on their pillows.
