If you want to buy plants online, Google provides a plethora of options: after all, we are in the golden age of indoor greenery, where Fiddle-Leaf Fig plants are fashionable and succulents are a staple in even of the smallest of spaces. As a result, plant delivery companies and e-commerce sites have (quite literally) cropped up everywhere. But which one should you go with?
Whether you are a beginner plant parent or an experienced horticulturalist, here are the services you should check out. They offer everything from indoor plants to outdoor plants to pet-friendly plants, and even plant subscriptions. (An extra bonus: some even offer free plant-care tips and help, which comes in handy for those who thumbs aren’t the greenest.) All deliver straight to your door.
Below, six sites Vogue recommends when you’re looking to buy plants online.
Bloomscape
For the burgeoning plant enthusiast, there’s no better place to start than Bloomscape. Not only do they have an excellent selection of indoor plants, outdoor plants, and succulents, they also have a Plant Mom. Let us explain: if you have any question about your plant, like—why does this leaf look wilty—you can simply email their resident Plant Mom Joyce Mast, who will tell you how to fix it.
Modsprout
Would you love to grow your own herbs, but live in a 400 square-foot apartment with no outdoor space to speak of? And, oh yeah, you have no idea how to garden? Look no further than Modsprout, which offers petite self-watering herb kits. Cocktail enthusiasts should look no further than their mint jar, or if you are more of a savory savant, a tiny pot of basil will do the trick.
The Sill
There’s plenty of single pot plants available from The Sill, the e-commerce site with a very millennial color palette and over 780,000 followers on Instagram. But if you can’t decide between a Money Tree and Fiddle-leaf Fig, opt for their subscription service, which delivers a new plant right to your door each month.
Bouqs
If a floral potted plant is more your style, visit Bouqs.com to review their delightful selection of orchids. (And for those who do so and manage to keep it alive—please DM me your wisdom.)
Greenery Unlimited
New Yorkers, go to Greenery Unlimited. They offer your run of the mill floor and desk plants, but also a grand array of hanging ones. Who needs wall art when you can have a cascading wall plant instead?
Via Citrus
Feel like you live in a seaside Amalfi Coast abode with Via Citrus, which offers Calamondin, lemon, and lime trees. Vogue editor Rachel Besser swears by her beloved sapling: “Via Citrus’s indoor lemon tree feels like a steal because for well under $100, life can give you the lemons you actually want. The aromatic flowers and beautiful foliage have already enhanced my days spent at home, and the budding lemons make the future look bright,” she wrote.
