Pilea peperomioides
Round, coin-shaped leaves on little stalks. It grows fast, leans to the light and makes babies you can pot up for friends.

New: bunny-ear cactus and string of pearls
We grow forgiving indoor plants in a Brunswick greenhouse, settle each one into a glazed pot and send it out in paper, not plastic. A care card for the fridge comes in every box.
This week's favourites
Every plant here was picked because it copes with real life: busy weeks, dim flats and the odd holiday.

Shop by light
Most plants that struggle are in the wrong light, not the wrong hands. Pick your spot and we'll show you what's happy there.
Hallways, south-facing rooms and offices with one small window.
Bright, but out of direct sun. Where most houseplants are happiest.
A few hours of real sun each day. Cactus and succulent country.
How we send it
Every plant is settled into its pot a week before it leaves, so it's rooted in and steady for the trip.
Recycled card, paper and a nest of wood wool. No plastic, no foam peanuts, nothing to throw away.
Light, water and fuss on one card for the fridge, and a real person to text if it sulks.
Kind words
These are sample reviews that show the tone. Swap them for real ones, with permission, before launch.
I've killed every plant I've ever owned. The snake plant has survived a month of me forgetting it exists.
It arrived in a box full of paper and wood wool, sitting up straight like nothing happened.
The care card is on our fridge. Our kid waters the pilea every Sunday and checks for babies.
If your plant doesn't settle in within 30 days, send us a photo. We'll help it along, or send a new one.
Yes. Plants are potted a week early, packed upright in paper and card, and sent early in the week so they never sit in a depot over a weekend.
Everywhere in Australia for pots and care products. Live plants go to VIC, NSW, ACT, QLD and SA; biosecurity rules keep them out of WA, TAS and the NT.
Look for the Pet-safe tag, or switch on Pet-safe only in the shop. The pilea, Boston fern, parlour palm and echeveria are all fine.
Yes. Choose click and collect at checkout and we'll text you when it's ready, usually within two hours.
The snake plant copes with dim rooms and forgotten watering. From $34, and sent today if you order by 1pm.
