// Plant-Related Questions

Your plants are perfectly fine in their nursery pots for a while before you repot them. If you've bought a new decorative pot (like a ceramic pot or basket), then we'd recommend keeping them in their plastic nursery pots and slipping them into their decorative pots. It's not advised to plant them directly into pots without drainage holes as often we can overwater plants and make them sad.

We specialise in indoor plants, however we can sometimes special order outdoor plants/trees. Send us a message here with your requirements and we'll check for you!

We're always around to answer questions and troubleshoot your plants. We don't even mind if you didn't buy them from us! Drop us a message here or contact us on social media - we're a friendly bunch!

We'll always let you know if your new plant-purchase needs a drink when you get home.

A good idea is to check the soil 1-2 inches into the pot with your finger (soil will tell you a lot about your plants!) and if your finger has soil on it, then chances are it's good to go! If it's very dry 1-2 inches down, then give it a water. You can either bottom-water (pop the plant in the sink for 10 mins or so) or top water. If you're top-watering, then aim for water gently coming out the bottom, then stop. Go gently as to not disturb the roots - these beauties don't like a jet wash! :-)

Now you're good but contact us if you have any concerns.

Oh you Sun-Worshipper! Yes we do!
