Plant Only: 4" Oxalis Triangularis aka Shamrock Plant, Green  - 

The Oxalis triangularis is really cool. The leaves are triangular and typically grow in groups of three. At night or on cloudy days they will close themselves up and then open again in the morning or when the sun comes back out. The tiny flowers are as delicate and dainty as the leaves look and it will continue to bloom and grow through the fall and spring. Now don’t freak out in the summer when you think you’ve killed it. This plant goes dormant at the exact same time most plants are in their most happy place.

You want to give it a bright, sunny spot and turn the pot every couple of days to ensure even growth. They can handle some direct sun but we wouldn’t let them have a lot of that hot, afternoon direct sunshine.

Fall through spring water when the top inch has dried out, probably once a week ish. In the summer when it is dormant water very lightly once every 2 – 3 weeks just to prevent the soil from drying out completely.  Toxic to pets.

Also Available with a 5" Virago

Plant Only: 4" Epiphyllum Anguliger aka Fishbone Cactus aka Ric Rac - 

Ok this plant is fun, look at those zig zagging leaves! Better yet, it is super easy to care for and great for a first-time plant owner. It has been known to bloom with pink and white flowers when it’s in the perfect growing environment. A natural trailing plant, this one loves a hanging planter to allow the foliage to cascade down. 

When picking out where to put it, think rainforest. They love bright, indirect light, dappled direct sun is ok if you have something filtering between the window and the plant, like a sheer curtain.

While it is a cactus and can handle drought conditions this variety does prefer more moisture as it is a rainforest cactus. Will love a high humidity environment and a drink once the top inch of soil is dry. That said, it is still a cactus and you need to be very careful you don’t overwater and create root rot. A Leca ball bottom layer under the soil or a pot with drainage is definitely recommended. Non Toxic to pets. 

Also Available with a 5" Bobbin Hanging Planter

• 3.5" Dieffenbachia Camille aka Dumb Cane - Loves bright, indirect light and does not like direct sun at all. Let the soil get moderately dry and then drench it letting the water run out the bottom. It likes some humidity in the air so misting helps, and keep out of cold drafts. Toxic to pets.

Keep the soil moist in the summer but let it dry out between waterings in the winter. Stick your finger down to the knuckle every 5 days or so, if you can feel it dry down about 2" it's time for a drink. Toxic to pets.

These clay pebbles will become your new plant's best pal. They are porous and lightweight and can be used on the bottom layer of your planter before your top up the soil and it will increase aeration and drainage. For best results, rinse the pebbles before planting.

Plant Only: 6” Weeping Willow aka Pussy Willow - We all know and love this harbinger of Spring and better times ahead so why not get started on some early gardening and bring some sweet, soft catkins inside until the real deal is here! You will need a bright spot with direct morning or late afternoon sun in order to keep it growing evenly. Because it is accustomed to growing quickly outdoors you will want to plant it in a large pot. You also need to ensure that you keep the soil wet, not even moist, it likes wet and can even handle boggy conditions given that it is a natural wet land plant. Non Toxic to pets.

Also Available with a 8" Large Tika, White Pot & Saucer

Plant Only: 5" Pilea Glauca Aquamarine aka Silver Baby Tears - A low laying trailing plant, the dainty foliage of the Pilea Glauca is just about the sweetest we've seen.

During fall and winter, allow the top quarter inch of soil to dry out before watering again. You never want it to be sitting in water in the saucer. Pet Friendly!

Plant Only: 5" Fiscus Elastica Burgundy aka Rubber Plant - 

A classic beauty! The deep burgundy foliage starts out as a bright red spike from the middle of the plant and then grows quickly into a thick, waxy perfect leaf. Better yet, this is one the easiest plants to care for and one of the most rewarding for its speedy growth.

Its happy place is a bright spot with indirect light but will tolerate lower light conditions.

Allow the soil to dry out down about 2” before watering. Give those thick, glossy leaves a wipe down with a damp cloth about once a week, not only are you keeping them shiny and pretty, removing the dust aids in photosynthesis. Loves a humid environment. Toxic to pets.

Also Available with a 5" Virago Pot and Saucer.

Plant Only: 5" Ficus Elastica Ruby aka Rubber Plant - 

We’re more than a little obsessed with the pink-ish red camouflage look of these leaves! Because of the variegation of the colours you will want to give this Ficus Elastica more bright light than you would with some of the other varieties like the Burgundy, bright light helps keep those colours punchy. Avoid direct sun that will scorch the leaves.

Overall the Rubber Plant varieties of Ficus are fairly low maintenance. Keep the soil slightly moist, watering when it is dry down about 2”. Try to avoid splashing water on the leaves as it can leave spots on it. That said, give those thick, glossy leaves a wipe down with a damp cloth about once a week, not only are you keeping them shiny and pretty, removing the dust aids in photosynthesis. Loves a humid environment. Toxic to pets. 

Also Available with a 5" Virago Pot and Saucer.

Plant Only: 6" Hoya australis aka Common Wax Flower - While they look fancy, Hoya's are perfect for someone new to plants which is why we love them, they are very tolerant of neglect! We love this one especially because it grows super fast which is really rewarding when you're starting out with plants.  Loves bright, indirect light, dappled sunlight exposure is its happy place, the direct sun may burn the plant but take a risk with a little bit of early morning sun which will result in brightly coloured foliage. Water when the top two inches are dry, better to underwater rather than over water, you can push it out to every 10 days. If the leaves at the bottom are crinkly it's telling you it's thirsty. If the leaves are yellowing it probably means you've given it too much water. Toxic to pets.

Also Available with a Large Tika Black Pot and Saucer

Plant Only : Succulent 7 Plant Grab Bag, 3"  - Make life easy for yourself and snag one of the 3 mixes of perfectly adorable succulents! They love themselves some sun and don't need a lot of water.
