Meet the Starter Plant Collection
1. Curly Lipstick Plant
With vibrant, curling vines and signature lipstick-shaped blooms, this plant adds a playful pop to any room. Thrives in bright, indirect light. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Mist occasionally to boost humidity.
2. African Milk Tree
This fast-growing succulent is known for its bold, upright stems and architectural appeal. Loves full sun or bright, direct light. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
3. ZZ Zenzi
The ZZ Zenzi is the definition of low-maintenance. Its compact size and glossy, deep green leaves make it a timeless favorite for any space. Prefers low to medium light conditions and water only when the soil is completely dry; it’s a drought-tolerant plant.
4. Chinese Money Plant
A plant with personality! The Chinese Money Plant features iconic round leaves and a modern look. Give it bright, indirect light and consistent watering, and it will reward you with adorable new growth.
5. Dutch Staghorn Fern
With its antler-like fronds, the Staghorn Fern is a showstopper. Surprisingly easy to care for, this fern thrives with moderate watering and a bit of humidity. Mist regularly to maintain humidity, and water when the moss or soil feels dry to the touch. Needs medium to bright, indirect light.
6. Desert Rose
The Desert Rose combines beauty and resilience with its water-storing trunk and occasional blooms. Loves bright, direct sunlight and allow the soil to dry thoroughly between waterings. It’s drought-tolerant and prefers dry conditions.
7. Begonia Pink Spotted Plant
For a splash of color, the Begonia Pink Spotted Plant delivers. Its speckled pink and green leaves are perfect for brightening up any space, especially with a little extra humidity. Thrives in bright, indirect light. Water when the top layer of soil feels dry. High humidity helps maintain its vibrant foliage—consider misting or using a humidifier.
General Tip for Repotting
Once any of your Starter Plants outgrow their 2” pot, move them to a slightly larger container with fresh, well-draining soil to support healthy growth.
