Plant shop in London Fields

Plants for real rooms, real people.

Houseplants, decent pots, and advice that doesn't assume you own a greenhouse. If the spot is dim, we'll say so.

Light, honestly

Start with the window, not the plant.

Low light is a few metres from a window, or a north room. Medium is a bright room without a hot beam for hours. Bright is close to a sunny window. "Indirect" just means the sun isn't scorching the leaf at noon.

  1. Small succulents and a larger leafy plant on a shelf right under a bright window

    Bright light

    Close to a sunny window, a conservatory, or outdoors.

    All bright light houseplants
  2. Leafy houseplants on stands in a room lit through a window with blinds

    Medium light

    A bright room, but not a hot beam of sun for hours.

    All medium light houseplants
  3. A snake plant in a white pot beside a bed

    Low light

    A few metres from a window, or a north-facing room.

    All low light houseplants

Easy, Steady and Fussy are the shop's own difficulty labels. Photos are illustrative, not our plants.

What we actually do

A shop, not a lifestyle brand.

  1. We pick plants that cope with flats.

    North light, radiators, the odd forgotten week. The fussy ones are labelled as fussy.

  2. Pots with a plan for water.

    If a cover pot has no hole, we'll tell you to keep the nursery pot inside it.

  3. Delivery three days a week.

    Monday to Wednesday, £6.95, and we pause for a hard frost rather than sending a tropical plant into a frozen van.

What to do this month

The season, without the fuss.

October

Indoors

Ease off watering and stop feeding most houseplants. Growth is slowing even if the heating has just come on.

Outside

Tender plants come in. A wet, cold pot kills more olives than a light frost does. Lift saucers so they can't freeze solid.

Good this month

Not sure where to start

Six questions. Four plants.

Light, room, how you actually water, and whether a pet shares the house. You'll get a short "why this one" with each match.

Or come in.

14 Moss Lane, London E8 3AB. Bring a photo of the corner you're trying to fill. That is more useful than the name of a plant you saw on a bus.
