6″ Shingle Plant
$75.00Rhaphidophora hayi is a fascinating tropical climber with a unique growing habit. It’s commonly called the shingle plant because its leaves lie flat against its support, overlapping like shingles on a roof or wall. While it was a rarely-seen houseplant in the past, it’s become quite trendy and widely available.
This plant will need tons of bright, indirect light. Aim for no less than 70% bright, indirect light. They are pretty hardy, but overexposure to direct sunlight will burn their delicate leaves and possibly harm the plant. The shingle plant can tolerate low light conditions and do very well with artificial light, making them a great addition to your home or terrarium.
This plant must be kept moist through spring and summer, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between watering’s to avoid root rot.
Since this is a climbing plant, misting every few days is also very important for its growth. During the winter you should cut way back on watering, but continue to mist regularly.
This plant comes in the plastic grower pot provided.

Giant Airplants – Tillandsia (4′ by 4′ in size)
$25.00 – $70.00Air plants look as if they came from another planet, but they’re native to the Americas, ranging from the southern United States to Argentina. In the wild, they use their roots to hang on the bark of trees, feeding on rainwater and bird poop they absorb through their leaves. There are more than 600 species and varieties of air plants, also called Tillandsias
- Once a week, submerge air plants in water and let them sit there for hours.
- Use rainwater or bottled drinking water. Softened water is high in salts that will burn the air plants, and tap water has minerals that can clog the trichomes on air plant leaves and keep them from absorbing nutrients.
- Dry the air plants out. This is very important. After they soak, shake off excess water and put them in a bright spot for a couple of hours to dry.
- Feed them once a month by adding water-soluble fertilizer for epiphytes, bromeliads or air plants to the water you dunk them in. These specialized fertilizers contain nitrogen in a form they can absorb.
- Air plants like temperatures ranging between the 50s and 90s.
- They thrive with temperature fluctuations. Give them a 10-degree temperature drop that mimics cool nights in their native jungle and they’ll flourish.
- They cannot withstand a freeze. They’re totally tropical and need to come indoors for winter.
- Make sure they get at least 4 to 6 hours of bright, filtered light per day. They’ll love a room with lots of windows.

$60.00Phalaenopsis orchids are native to the tropics across Asia down into Australia.
These beautiful multi bloom flowers can last months, and can have over 8 blooms per branch open at once for a stunning show.
Orchids prefer a bright direct light but can adjust to indirect conditions and with the right spot can bloom twice a year.
Phalaenopsis like humidity so misting the plant from top to bottom can help keep it happy in between watering, which should be done roughly every three weeks. To water soak the moss/wood chips by submerging them in water up to 20 mins and then draining excess water will keep the roots healthy.
