body: <p>I am certain I am just doing this the wrong way, but I cant get this to work with assets:precompile and im not sure it should be even.</p>
  
  <pre><code>#plant.css.erb
  &lt;%
  plants = Plant.all
  if plants
    plants.each do |plant|
  %&gt;
      .plant_&lt;%= plant.id %&gt; {
          background-color: #&lt;%= plant.color %&gt;;
          padding: 1px;
      }
  &lt;%
    end
  end
  %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Invalid CSS after "...kground-color: ": expected expression (e.g. 1px, bold), was "#;"
