Environmental Sustainability

As a small, female-led horticultural business, sustainability is at the heart of everything I do. Having studied Biology at university I have a profound understanding of the unsustainable practices in horticulture and the importance of preserving nature. Which is why i have such strong drive to ensure every aspect of my business is as environmentally-friendly and sustainable as I can manage.

Plant Sourcing

  • A selection of plants including Terrarium varieties, Epipremnums, Monsteras, and succulents are grown in-house using low-impact methods.

  • UK-based plant suppliers, prioritising small, family-run businesses where possible.

  • Imports are only made when absolutely necessary, and always from businesses with shared environmental-conscious standards.

Growing Media

  • Exclusively use peat-fee potting mixes, handmade in-house.

  • All ingredients carefully selected from British suppliers with sustainable practices.

  • In process of getting validated certification for my own potting mix made in-house.

Packaging

  • Paper, Card and cardboard packaging is made from recycled paper, sourced from a local provider.

  • Any plastic packaging is recycled and recyclable (LDPE Type 4).

  • I encourage reusability and recycling when re-use is no longer possible.

Fertilisation

  • High-quality seaweed extract is used as a natural and sustainable fertiliser.

  • This supports plant health without adverse effects to soils microenvironment or surrounding environment.

Pest Management

  • Predatory insects are used to manage pest outbreaks naturally an safely.
