OUR STORY
Tropical Plants to Elevate Your Home
Elevated Tropicals grew out of the house plant boom when the pandemic quarantined people in their homes and drove them to explore new hobbies. Although the house plant craze lead to a dramatic rise in prices, it provided a beautiful outlet for people to cope with the uncertainty of the pandemic.
I've always been a houseplant lover. Like many, the pandemic kicked my love into high gear. I began selling cuttings of my more rare plants to afford more purchases. Eventually, I enjoyed the joy of sharing uncommon and rare plants with others so much that I grew from an occasional seller into a full blown shop.
I've continued to grow my inventory and what started as a single shelf in the garage now fills multiple grow tents, shelving units, and an entire guest bedroom turned plant room; who needs guests when you have plants anyway!
My shop's mission is two-fold: to deliver wishlist plants directly to you and to elevate your home's style with the liveliness and beauty of plants.
