Well that’s it! An empty shop (and a home that looks like I’ve just moved in)!

It’s strange sitting here now even though once I’d decided not to stay, I felt happy with my decision and gradually started to move things out after I’d hosted the terrarium birthday party, which was a lovely event to finish on!

Thank you to my lovely customers for shopping with me. I’ve loved chatting to many of you about more than just plants.

Thanks to those business owners on Town Street that were nice to me, welcoming and supportive!!

It can be quite tough getting through the days sometimes when you’re on your own and the only person having to deal with every aspect of promoting a business - Marketing manager, sales executive, finance department, buyer, customer service, sounding board, decision maker, cleaner, cake taster lol 😂 Who knows, perhaps another place and time.

The best part, it wasn’t just the plants that grew, it was the friendships and for that, I am grateful. I’m especially going to miss my partner in crime, Helen next door, who happened to be wearing the same outfit today! T Shirt from

Enjoy your plants folks and grow with them!

Sweet Sixteen celebration for Youjia!

Friends gathering together for a terrarium workshop! So nice to do something like this before I leave the shop behind! The girls seem to be having fun and all look gorgeous! I just feel bad about all the soil near their lovely clothes 😬

Open until 2 today! Reduced plants!! Also, if you think you’re too busy with your little ones, Edie and Etta are here for another day with their own little entrepreneurial shenanigans!

They’ve been with me at work this week but rather than being bored, they thought they’d offer little mini make overs to the children to earn a few pennies!! 😂

Come and grab yourself a bargain plant!! 🪴🪴

Thank you for all the lovely comments! I should have mentioned that my husband has more often than not been my driver, the calm to stress, the ‘talk things through’ during my worry, the ideas, positivity and enthusiastic go to! Also, my Saturday guy when he could see I just wanted to watch a movie with the girls! 😂 Thank you Jacob for your support! Xx

New Beginnings!

Hey Plant Friends

I’ve been giving a lot of thought to my working/ personal situation and have decided for various reasons, not to renew my lease on the shop this September. I’ve loved turning it into a beautiful oasis that everyone loves and have met some lovely, lovely people along the way! But I haven’t been loving the lack of family time 😏, and equally, not being able to give the shop my all. It’s been wonderful but ultimately not worth what I’m missing out on.

I’ve been a little quiet on here this last week whilst making memories in gorgeous Anglesey with my girls!

I’ve spent quality time with my mum & dad instead of just talking on the phone, chatted and said “I love you” in person.
I’ve had fun and cuddles with my gorgeous girls, barefoot walks on the beach, paddling in the sea and enjoyed lunch, mocktails, coffee and cake (that I’m not serving) together whilst overlooking beautiful sand dunes. We’ve had cinema and shopping time together. I’ve chatted through big problems with my little people, dried tears, hugged and reassured them. We’ve laughed out loud at our crazy new dog. I’ve watched my oldest laugh out loud at the books she’s reading one after the other, engrossed - and listened to her telling me all the bits she finds hilarious. I’ve watched them both make new friendships, sharing their own stories with a sparkle in their eyes and realised I’ve really been missing all of this. Having looked back at my photos, I seem to have more of my plants than my children over the last two years 😫

My parents aren’t so young anymore and my children won’t be children for long. I want all this as much as I can possibly soak it up because life is precious and we can’t get our time back. The Plant thing may not totally be over but for now, the shop is.

I have several weeks to go before it becomes someone else’s new venture and what a gorgeous place they will be walking into! I’ll keep you posted with updates! Keep following! Krista
