Do you adore indoor plants, but never have the time to get out to a plant nursery or garden store? Or perhaps you buy the plant, but never get around to re-potting it? Whatever your crime against plants is, there’s now a service that does all the work out of plant selection for you.
Plant subscription services have been around for a little while now, and they’re useful on many levels. It’s the perfect gift for a friend or family member who wants to get into plants, but doesn’t know where to start. Plant subscription services also make excellent housewarming gifts.
No plant research required and there’s no shopping for pots, it’s all done for you. And better yet, the prices are totally affordable.
Plants Today offers a wide range of stunning indoor and outdoor plants delivered straight to your door.
“Initially, we had been looking for Tube Stock plants for our own garden
and saw that there was a little niche we were interested in there and could
maybe develop into something,” says owner David Andrews.
“We ran a pop-up shop and our requests were changing with each customer we met. Plant-lovers and newbie plant-lovers alike were giving us great feedback of what they needed or wanted and just couldn’t find.”
Their most popular plant choices include Monsteras and Devil’s Ivy as well as the Fiddle Leaf Fig and the Rubber plant.
“There are some plants that thrive on neglect, so if you feel like that’s going
to be you then head towards a Zamioculcas zamiifolia (Zanzibar Gem) or a
Philodendron Minima,” David says.
“If you are dedicated to nurturing your new friends but know this is your first time plant-raising then something like a Snake Plant or Fiddle Leaf Fig would be a great choice. They are relatively easy to care for and make beautiful talking points in a lounge area.”
Plants Today delivers to Qld, NSW, SA, Vic and the ACT. To view the range and order direct through the website visit plantstoday.com.au
