We're all stocked up on our favorite native plant prints from @taigapress !!

Happy plants make for happy humans!

Though a little on the fussy side for beginners, Radermachera Sinica (China Doll) makes a lovely houseplant. It's very important to be sure you have the right conditions before bringing one home. I know I was a little frustrated with my first try, but once I found the perfect spot it thrived. It needs a lot of bright, indirect sunlight and is happiest in warmer temperatures away from a chilly draft. Be sure not to overwater this one as it is very prone to root-rot if your pot is not well drained. Once you find its happy place leave it there as it doesn't like to be moved or transplanted. You can do i!

We love this grey and gold combo!

My plants are loving all this sunshine!! Yours too??? ?=

Our little plant corner is looking pretty fresh this morning. ⠀ ☘️⠀

I remember growing up as a little girl in Iowa my parents had a plaque hanging on the wall of their office depicting a proud farmer on cart full of produce and a woman behind him pushing the cart. The caption was “Behind every successful man is a hard working woman”. I remember thinking, “Why is he riding in top of the cart and she’s doing all the work? Why isn’t he helping her? Why is he taking all the credit?” Something didn’t sit well with me then and it still doesn’t, but I’m happy to see things are changing. Here’s to all you hard working, amazingly kind, wicked smart, super talented, incredibly wise women I know in the world. Happy International Women’s Day!!

Warm and sunny weekend is just around the corner. We can’t wait!

Wednesday afternoon scene at the shop.

Lots of beautiful plants arrived today. Stop by and pick out your favorite. All mini succulents are buy two get one free through the weekend too!! +=
