Grand rising and happy Thursday plant pals!

Chris & I came home from visiting our little sprout Abby in the greenhouse to find the cutest & softest Little Sleepie at our door! We want to thank the secret sender, we appreciate your kindness & generosity so very much! She will look so adorable when she gets to snooze in them!

Update on Abby - she is doing well and getting stronger each day. She struggles with taking in fertilizer on her own right now so that is what we are focusing on and she is showing improvement day by day and is slightly above birth weight & is such a strong little lady! She has also had some issues with temperature regulation so they have her in a “prop box” but we are currently on room temperature. All good things!

We appreciate all of you that have reached out with congratulations, positive vibes & prayers we are so thankful for the support we have around us. ☺️

While we are unsure how long it will be until we can all be home together we are staying positive and enjoying every single minute with our newest addition.

Grand Rising & happy Sunday planty pals!

We know it’s been a minute since we checked in while we have been tending to our crop this Summer, however we have a harvest report! 🪴

After the long wait and difficult cultivation, our little Sprout decided to bless us a wee bit early!

We are happy to report that both seedling & Mama are doing well! Although our little seedling will need to stay in the greenhouse for a couple weeks for growth & acclimation to the new world we are beyond excited to share our newest cultivar with you!

So without further ado - we present to you:
Baby Girl Abigail 💕

Your Monstera isn't trying to be a fiddle leaf fig.
Your snake plant isn't stressing over not having trailing vines.
🌱They just grow into exactly what they're meant to be - authentically, wildly, beautifully themselves.
And so should you. 💚

You weren't meant to blend in - you were meant to thrive in your own light. Embrace your quirks, your pace, your petals, and your process. 🌞

So this week, be bold like a Begonia. Stand tall like a Sansevieria, & most of all, be WILDLY, UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU!

🌿💫 This or That Thursday: Trailing Beauties Edition! 💫🌿

Two planty icons.
One trailing title.
Let the vine showdown begin! 👇

🌱String of Pearls - the delicate darling dripping with charm. Perfectly round & totally photogenic! A little high maintenance, but WORTH it!
💚Pothos - the ride-or-die of houseplants. Fast-growing, forgiving, and fabulous in every variety (golden, neon, Marble Queen...she does it all).

Now the real question is...
Which trailing queen wins your heart (and your shelf space)?

Real talk: your plants don't worry about their past overwatering trauma or whether they'll ever outgrow their nursery pot. ☺️

They keep growing...from the inside out. 🌱💚
✨And so can you.
That strength, patience, and glow you're looking for? It's already rooted deep inside you. Whether you're in full bloom or just sprouting - you're growing exactly as you should.

Let this week be a reminder:
🌞 You are more powerful than your past
🌿 more capable than your worries
💧 and just one good watering away from your next breakthrough.

Growth spurt? More like pot upgrade problems!

Pots are like a pair of skinny jeans, let's be real - once they stretch out, there's no going back, but no worries because growth looks good on EVERYONE!

Tag one of your plants that's outgrown everything except your heart. 💚
👇Bonus points if you've kept the old pots "just in case" - we see you plant hoarders.

"You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream." - C.S Lewis

Guess what? Neither are your plants. 💫
Your 5 year old Pothos is still dreaming of becoming a jungle vine. Your Fiddle leaf fig still believes she'll reach the ceiling one day (and we support that energy 💪).

✨Whether your starting a plant collection at 20 or repotting your first at 70 - growth doesn't come with an expiration date.

So go ahead, set that new goal. Start that garden. Propagate your plant AND your passion. Because just like plants, we thrive when we're rooted in purpose and stretching toward the light. 🌞💚

Here's to dreaming big and growing slow. One leaf at a time.

Me: "I can't believe I said that in the meeting..."
Also Me (to my philodendron): "you get it though, right?" 😅🌿

Honestly, plants make the best therapists:
✅ No Judgement
✅ Great Listeners
✅ Always rooted in the moment 💚

Go ahead - vent, manifest, or spill the tea to your leafy crew. They understand.

👇Tell us: What have YOU told your plants lately?

07/07/2025

Just like that crispy leaf you swore was the end of your plant parent career...or that time your monstera threw a tantrum and dropped a leaf for no reason at all - you kept going! 🪴✨

And guess what? That's exactly what counts.

💪 Whether you're thriving or reviving, keep showing up. Every new sprout, every adjusted watering schedule, every "Oops, too much sun" moment is a step forward.

Your plants don't give up on you - so don't give up on yourself.

🌞 Here's to a week full of growth, grace, and a little bit of dirt under your nails. You've got this, plant fam. 💚
