Clean leaves are working leaves. A leaf is how a plant feeds itself, and indoors those leaves slowly gather a film of household dust that nothing comes along to wash off. Outdoors, wind and rain do the job. Inside, it is on you. A quick wipe lifts the dust, brings back the natural gloss, and lets the leaf get on with soaking up light.
Which One Do I Need?
- 245ml Spray Bottle. The one to start with. Amber glass with a trigger head, so you can spray straight onto a cloth or lightly onto the leaf.
- 1L Glass Refill. Four times the oil and no second sprayer. Pour it into the bottle you already own, or dab it straight onto a wiping cloth.
Key Features
- The formula. 100% organic neem seed oil, hand-blended with a plant-based wetting agent so it spreads evenly.
- Free from. No synthetic fragrance and no artificial glossing agents.
- No greasy residue. Some leaf products leave one; this does not.
- What is in neem. Organic sulphur, proteins and beneficial trace elements.
- Household safety. Safe around pets and children when used as directed. Do not ingest.
- Origin. Made in Melbourne.
Pūrē Standard
- It is a leaf shine that is not a leaf shine. Most commercial leaf shines coat the leaf in silicone or wax to fake a gloss, which blocks the stomata the plant breathes through. This lifts the dust and lets the natural gloss return. Plant Runner say it plainly: no artificial glossing agents.
- Clean leaves are genuine plant care, not styling. A film of dust quietly limits photosynthesis, and indoors nothing removes it but you.
- Two ingredients, both named. Organic neem seed oil and a plant-based wetting agent. Full disclosure on a product this simple is exactly what we want to see.
- It refills, so you buy the sprayer once. The 1L glass refill exists precisely so the spray bottle is not disposable. That is the whole reason we stock both sizes together.
- One honest note on the packaging. Both bottles are amber glass, but the 245ml has a plastic trigger head, so this does not carry our Plastic Free tag. Keep the sprayer and top it up from the 1L.

How to Use
- Spray and wipe. Onto a soft cloth, or lightly onto the leaf. With the refill, dab it straight onto the cloth.
- Support the leaf. Hold the underside with your free hand as you wipe, so you do not tear it at the stem.
- Do the undersides too. That is where dust and pests both prefer to sit.
- How often. Wipe foliage down regularly rather than waiting for it to look dull.
- Safety. Keep out of reach of children, and do not ingest.

Our Take
It lifts dust so leaves can actually photosynthesise, rather than coating them in silicone to fake a shine like most leaf products do. The unglamorous bottle that takes none of the credit.

Good to know
Frequently asked
Which size should I buy?
Start with the 245ml spray bottle, which is amber glass with a trigger head. Once it runs low, buy the 1L glass refill and top the same bottle up rather than buying another sprayer. Four times the oil, and considerably better by the litre.
Is it like other leaf shine products?
No, and this is the important difference. Most commercial leaf shines coat the leaf in silicone or wax to fake a gloss, which blocks the stomata the plant breathes through. Plant Runner state there are no artificial glossing agents and no synthetic fragrance in this, and it will not leave the greasy residue some leaf products do.
What is in it?
100% organic neem seed oil hand-blended with a plant-based wetting agent. It also contains organic sulphur, proteins and beneficial trace elements.
Is it safe around pets and children?
Plant Runner say it is safe to use around pets and children when used as directed. Keep it out of reach and do not ingest it.
Is it plastic free?
Not quite, and we would rather say so. Both bottles are amber glass, but the 245ml has a plastic trigger head, so this does not carry our Plastic Free tag. The best thing you can do is keep the sprayer and top it up from the 1L refill.
How do I apply it?
Spray onto a soft cloth or lightly onto the leaf and wipe. Support the underside of the leaf with your free hand so you do not tear it at the stem, and do the undersides too, since that is where dust and pests both prefer to sit.
