  • A biocomposite of algae and a plant material is provided. The biocomposite of algae comprises glycerol and a plant material including at least one of Abelmoschus esculentus (Okra), and Lepidium sativum (Cress). The biocomposite may optionally include a plasticizer. The algae may be green marine algae (Codium sp). The biocomposite is biodegradable and moldable into any suitable shape. Thus, the biocomposite may be used to form containers, such as for potting plants or seedlings, as a mulching or fertilizing material, or for any applications where a moldable, biodegradable material is desired.
