Welcome to my YouTube channel where I share my love for all things botanical. Join me as I explore nurseries for unique finds and care for my ever growing collection at home. I began this channel after receiving such positive feedback on my Instagram plant posts and now I am excited to bring that same energy here. From orchids to cacti, succulents to Hoyas I am always looking for plants that catch my eye. They may not be the latest trend but they are captivating to me. Along the way I will share helpful tips and tricks for plant care so both beginners and seasoned plant lovers can learn something new. Thank you for tuning in.
For business and collaboration inquiries including partnerships product features sponsorships and reviews please reach out. I am also open to showcasing products from plant stores and greenery related businesses as well as participating in events for video features.

🌵☀️ Summer Vacation for the Plants Has Begun! ☀️🌵
It's officially that time of year — night temperatures are now consistently staying above 10°C (50°F), which means it's finally safe to start moving my plants out to the balcony for the season!
First one to make the move? My rainbow cactus — and for good reason! 🌈 The first bloom of the season started opening, and I wasn't about to miss it. We'd had a stretch of gloomy, rainy days, so the moment the sun broke through, I rushed this beauty out to the balcony to soak up the rays and let those blooms fully open. Worth it! 😍
There's something so satisfying about this annual ritual. It's a big task hauling everyone outside, but I swear my plants love it — it's like summer holidays for them! 🌿✨
📸 Swipe to see my rainbow cactus bloom in all its glory!
Now I want to hear from you — have you finished moving your plants out to the balcony, garden, or patio yet? Or are you still working through the great summer migration like me? Drop a comment below! 👇

The bonus from my Allan Gardens Spring Plant Sale haul 🌿
Crystal Star Nursery was so kind and gifted me a bag of their Tropical Treasure Mix potting media. 💚
It's ideal for orchids, hoyas, aroids, and other tropical gems, so it's basically perfect for my entire collection. Can't wait to use it on my new orchids.
If you need quality media for your tropical plants, Crystal Star ships Canada wide and has it on their website too.
Full haul video is live on my channel! 🎥
What's your go to potting mix for tropical plants?

Day three of my Allan Gardens Spring Plant Sale haul 🌵
Tephrocactus articulatus var. strobiliformis
Also known as the pine cone cactus, and you can see why! Such a quirky, sculptural little thing and I love how unique each segment looks.
Had to bring a cactus home too. Couldn't help myself. 💚
Picked up from Crystal Star Nursery at the Allan Gardens Spring Plant Sale.

Day two of sharing my Allan Gardens Spring Plant Sale haul 🌺
A no ID red Cattleya with a soft yellow lip. Big, bold, and fluffy. This one just makes me happy every time I look at it.
Such a fun contrast to the soft muted Encyclia I shared yesterday. Different vibe, same love. 💚

Meet one of my favourites from this past weekend's plant haul 🌸
Encyclia cordigera var. alba X Epidendrum robustum
The bloom on this one is absolutely divine. A soft muted white centre with hints of green and a touch of purple. It feels calming just looking at it. 💚
