Swipe back with us — this is where Plants in a Box began.
Plants packed into grab-and-go packs, designed for retail shelves. The problem? Almost every retailer said no. But one store saw our vision. We sold maybe 10 packs, and I watered them every second morning before the school run.
We started with just 10 lines — bougainvilleas (still our best sellers today 💚), liriopes, grasses and a few favourites.
It was a true family effort. Our big girl carried more than she should have, but she always knew the end goal. Our middle one refused to work until she discovered pay day 💰 — always dreaming of New York, and yes, she made it there. And our littlest? Asleep on the keypad, our hardest worker 😴
And our first team members — never judged, just jumped in and loved our kids like their own. There’s no “we” without them.
All that rejection turned out to be our biggest blessing. We skipped the middleman and went straight to you — farm fresh, delivered to your door. From 10 lines to over 800 varieties, online only.
Thanks for growing with us 🌱
