About Us

Welcome! I'm Leslie, the plant lover behind Growing Lovely, based in Ontario, Canada. What started as a small hobby quickly grew into a passion for collecting, caring for, and learning about plants.

Growing Lovely has a mix of everyday favourites and harder to find plants. Some come from my personal collection, while others are sourced and imported from Thailand. I started this shop to make unique plants more accessible in Canada and to share plants that I truly enjoy growing myself.

Outside of the shop, I share my plant journey on YouTube. I document my experiences like unboxing imports, caring for stressed plants, and showing how my collection changes over time. It is not about perfection. It is about learning as I go and bringing you along with me.

Whether you are just getting into plants or already deep into collecting, I am really glad you are here. Welcome to Growing Lovely 🌱

The "Rare" Plant Project

I recently developed a curiosity in the rare plant market. Why would someone spend so much on a plant? I did some research and began documenting my experience and sharing these plants on my shop.
