BYOP Houseplants

Bring Your Own Planter – and bring the beauty of growing greenery indoors! Our expert instructor will introduce some popular varieties and their care needs, from water, light, and fertilizer to troubleshooting common challenges. We’ll end with a hands-on repotting activity using a 4″ pothos plant (provided) and a favorite pot from your collection so your new plant will fit right in with your personal style. Come ready to dig in, learn, and leave with a happy new houseplant and tips to keep it thriving.
