Our story

It started on awindowsill.

One cutting, a south-facing ledge, and a stubborn refusal to let anything die. This is how a small obsession with green became a glasshouse in Hertford.

From one stubborn cutting to a room full of green.

Jane started with a windowsill, a cutting from her grandmother, and a stubborn refusal to let anything die. The shop is what happened when the windowsill ran out of room.

A working glasshouse and houseplant shop in Hertford. We grow characterful plants, pair them with pots worth showing off, and tell you exactly how to keep them alive.

How we growHertford

The greenhouse, open to wander.

A working glasshouse and shop, open to wander. We grow on, hold and hand-pick everything here, so the plant you take home has already settled in and proven itself. Nothing leaves the bench until we would keep it on our own.

You are welcome to come and walk the rows, breathe the warm green air, and ask whatever you like. The kettle is usually on.
