I had to show you this cute newbie that just arrived!

Created for people who love their plants and want to understand them better, The Houseplant Journal provides a dedicated place to record, care for and follow an indoor plant collection over time. From bringing a new plant home to watching it grow, change and thrive, the journal helps you keep the important details of each plant together in one beautifully designed place.

The perfect gift for any houseplant addict! They're out in the shop and online too 🌿

Humbled by this lovely little feature in the Hull Daily Mail. Especially pleased that they took a couple of years off my age 🫶🏻

October - December workshops are now open to bookings!

We have five different terrarium workshops across the 12 dates that have just gone live, ranging from £38-£75 a ticket. Pictured here is our large terrarium workshop at £65 a ticket. Head to plantandpaint.co.uk to browse all of them and book on. You will find all of the information that you need on there, but feel free to pop us a message if you need help.

I know that I sound like a broken record, but I really would book sooner rather than later. Workshops in the cosy months sell really fast. See you at a workshop soonish!

This is what us in the horticulture industry call a properly sexy leafy. The Anthurium Peltigerum. Lush, fab, stunning and yours for £21 🌿

We've had a mega top-up of carnivorous plants, including the very popular 'Zipp' flytrap. I can't decide if their frilly edges make them more gnarly or more pretty. Probably because it's both at the same time 🪰

🫙 Wanted 🫙

We will be returning to the Fresher's Fair at Hull uni on the 22nd September to make more jam jar terrariums for FREE and dish out some bargain plants!

Which means, I'm here to beg for your jars! If you don't mind saving and dropping off any glass jars with their lids at the shop please that would be great. If they come with the labels removed, I will kiss ya!

Thank you 🫶🏻

We will be closed on Monday for a full day of interviews. Please don't come and see us then! 🚫

Have a great weekend!
