Behind the scenes with Ngoc Minh Ngo ✨

A little look at the creativity, movement, and thoughtful details that went into our recent photoshoot together. From setting the scene to capturing each beautiful moment, it was such a joy watching the vision come to life.

We can’t wait to share more from this one.

A little leaf care goes a long way 🌿

Cleaning your plant’s leaves removes dust, helps them absorb more light, keeps their pores clear (ok skincare routine), and gives you a chance to spot pests early!

Plus, nothing beats that fresh glow. Here’s your sign to give your plants a good ol’ wipe-down ✨

Our August staff picks are here 🌿 Here’s the lowdown:

Air plants are wonderfully low-fuss and don’t need soil, so they’re easy to display almost anywhere!

Australian Bottle Trees bring bold, sculptural character and are impressively drought-tolerant once they’re settled.

Spanish Moss adds soft, dreamy texture to any space.

Which one would you take home?

Something special is in the works at The Old Yew. Does anyone have any guesses?

Plant Vocab in English: Fenestration 🌿
Fenestration refers to the natural splits, holes, or openings that develop in the leaves of certain plants as they mature. You’ll most commonly spot them on plants like Monsteras.

Why do they happen?
🌿 They help light reach lower leaves
🌿 They allow wind to pass through more easily
🌿 They’re often a sign your plant is maturing
🌿 More light can encourage more dramatic fenestration

If your Monstera’s newer leaves are still coming in solid, don’t panic. Give it time, plenty of bright indirect light, and the right care.

Got questions about your plant’s leaves? Bring it by the shop. We’re always happy to take a look!
