GOODBYE...After five wonderful years of serving this beautiful plant community — through multiple seasons, restructures, and growth — I’ve made the difficult decision to close the business. A combination of personal circumstances and the current economic climate has brought me to this point, and while it’s not been an easy choice, it's the right one for now.

I want to say the biggest thank you to each of you — for your encouragement, support, and trust over the years. Every purchase, kind word, conversation and message has meant the world to me. I’m so proud of the joy, beauty, and life Love My Plants has brought into your homes.

As I close this chapter, I’m following my heart and leaning into where my true passion lies — working one-on-one with families, especially mothers (and fathers), to support them in creating calm, functional, and beautiful homes. This new path brings together everything I love: professional organising, decluttering, styling, personal shopping, healthy meal planning, and designing systems and processes that help households run smoothly so parents can show up more fully for their children, their partners, and themselves.

If this is something you or someone you know would love support with, I’d be honoured to work together. You can find me and stay connected or via email at [email protected]

And as always, I encourage you to continue supporting the small local businesses you love. This is a challenging time for many, and your purchases — even the smallest ones — make a big difference.

🌱✨ Have you ever noticed how your plants seem to stretch towards the sun? 🌞 It’s true—plants naturally lean in the direction of light, which can cause them to grow unevenly. That’s why it’s super important to give them a little spin every now and then!

By rotating your plants regularly, you're helping them grow evenly and stay healthy, with fuller, more balanced growth. 🌿 So, next time you’re watering, give your plant a gentle turn. It’ll thank you for it with lush leaves and strong stems. 💚

🌿 Gemma's Low Light Home Makeover! 🌿
I recently received a message from Gemma, who was struggling to keep plants alive in her dark rental home. After a chat and an in-home consultation, we created a plan to bring life and energy back into her space. Here’s Gemma’s story:

“I moved into an old, dark rental in Hamilton, and I just couldn’t make the living spaces feel welcoming. My plants, which used to thrive, wilted and died from the lack of light. Feeling desperate, I reached out to Rachel for help.
Rachel was amazing! She was direct, efficient, and non-judgmental. She assessed my living room and kitchen, finding the perfect spots for plants. Her plant knowledge was incredible, and she recommended species that would actually survive in my home.
Rachel worked with my budget, brought in beautiful plants, and set up a self-watering system. She explained how it worked and recommended plant food. The transformation was amazing! Both my living room and kitchen now feel vibrant. I finally feel at peace in my home and can invite visitors without feeling embarrassed. I’m so glad I reached out to Rachel – she helped me create a space I love. Thank you, Rachel!” - Gemma

Gemma’s makeover was simple but effective. We used Peace Lilies, Snake Plants, and Green Supremes – perfect for low-light spaces. Even the hardiest plants need some light, and we found the best spots for each one.
With the self-watering system, Gemma no longer has to worry about watering. And the best part? If she ever moves, she can take her plants with her, and I’ll help her style them in her new home! 🌱✨
👉 Whether you’re renting or own your home, I can create a plant makeover plan that suits your space, style, and budget.

🌿 Should You Have Plants in Your Bedroom? Here’s Why You Totally Should! 🌿

This week, while I was installing some new plants at The Movement Collective gym, a member asked me a great question: Is it okay to have plants in your bedroom?

The answer is a big YES! Here’s why adding plants to your bedroom is not just a decor win, but also a health booster:

1️⃣ Better Air Quality – Plants filter the air, removing toxins and releasing oxygen. Breath easier while you sleep! 🌱💨

2️⃣ Improved Sleep – Studies show plants reduce stress and promote relaxation, helping you unwind and fall asleep faster. 🛏️✨

3️⃣ A Touch of Nature – They bring life, energy, and beauty into your space. Who doesn’t want a refreshing, green bedroom? 🌸

4️⃣ Increased Humidity – Plants help regulate humidity, keeping the air comfortable, especially during those dry winter months. 🌬️💧

But not all plants are created equal! It’s important to choose the right ones for your space. As a plant stylist, I’ll help you pick plants that thrive in your bedroom’s unique environment—without the hassle. 🌱

And because life’s busy, I set up self-watering pots that only need a little water once a month! Easy, right? 😌💚

Ready to bring the beauty of nature into your bedroom? DM me and let’s chat about creating your perfect plant-filled sanctuary! 🌿💚

Not long ago, I dreamed of a home filled with lush, healthy indoor plants. I saved Instagram and Pinterest photos and even created vision boards filled with tropical plants.
