Sustainability

Raising the bar on how houseplants are grown and shipped.

Recycled containers

Our tan production pots are made from 100% certified post-consumer recycled plastic, so the plant looks great and the pot is part of the solution.

Clean, retail-ready plants

Plants are grown through tissue culture, virus indexed, hand-inspected, labeled, and leaf-polished so they are easy to unpack and easy to sell.

Efficient facilities and shipping

A state-of-the-art greenhouse in Stuarts Draft, Virginia, near major shipping lanes, helps orders arrive fast and fresh.

Working for a Greener World

We are committed to staying on the cutting edge of sustainability practices.

  • Energy savings: Our water tank is heated through state-of-the-art highly efficient boilers; We count with a double shade cloth system in rhe greenhouse designed to retain heat.
  • Erfgoed Flooring: After each flood, the water and all inputs are captured, stored, and used again, reducing water consumption and waste.
  • CO₂ capture: CO₂ from our high efficiency boilers is captured and pumped to the greenhouse to turn a waste product into an input that encourages healthy plant growth.
  • Hoogendoorn IIVO Climate Control: industry leading in autonomous growing.
  • Taupe Grow containers: Grow containers are made from 100% post-consumer certified recycled plastics. These containers can be recycled again, as opposed to the traditional black container the industry uses.
