Cool Implanted Sunflower Cell Phone Cover?

(From: Mobile Phones Pose Recycling Problems Article) Also on display is a prototype phone cover with an implanted sunflower seed. As the sunflower grows, it gets additional nutrients from the biodegrading phone cover. This unique design, yet to hit the shelves, should give you the option to simply bury your used phone cover in your garden? thanks to researchers from Warwick University and materials company PVAXX.

Okay show of hands now, how many here would pay a little extra for the "Implanted Sunflower Cover?" As a Design Engineer by trade, I find it a novel concept...but can a society, so on the go that it simply needs to always have their cell phones with them, slow down enough to plant the darn thing, much more pay extra for the feature?
