The amazing Marble Queen is our subscription plant of the month for April 2021, accompanied by an on-trend rustic diamond pattern planter!

This elegant lady is found in areas of Northern Australia through to Malaysia. We chose a natural coloured planter to allow the glossy marbled leaves to speak for themselves. The 'Marble Queen' is capable of growing over 3 metres, making it the perfect plant for climbing or trailing.

This plant prefers medium light levels sunlight, bathrooms are also an ideal candidate for placement.

This month we are treating our subscription customers to a pair of gardening gloves. It’s a little present from us to you to say thank you to our valued subscribers.

It’s always a good idea to wear gloves when working with soils whether that be for indoor or outdoor plants. Compost, straight from the bag, can cause skin irritations with some gardeners. Open garden soil is packed with many types of organisms that are best left in the soil and not on your skin.

Next month there will be another little gift, a seedbox. The seedbox contains 6 Butterfly mix seed balls as well as instructions on how to plant, grow, and admire them all summer long.
