Plant Lover’s Paradise in Santa Cruz, California

If you are as obsessed with plants as I am, you have to visit Santa Cruz.  Two of my favorite shops are in this beautiful beachside town.  The first is DIG Gardens.  Located at 420 Water Street, Santa Cruz, California, it is well worth the trip.

They feature a plethora of plants, textiles, books, candles, pottery, furniture, and interior decorating inspiration.  They have one of the largest selections of succulents, cacti, and air plants I have ever seen!

I could spend hours perusing this place, and my pictures are only the tip of the iceberg!  They have a huge outdoor area chockful of plant wonders as well!  My favorite is the gigantic succulent display.  This has become so crazy popular, people are getting married in front of it.  For reals!

I’m sure all my plant loving friends are drooling at this point.  But wait, there’s more!  Botanic And Luxe, located at 701A Front Street in Santa Cruz, California is another sweet spot for your plant fix.  It is located just around the corner from the beautiful downtown Santa Cruz area, close to other great shops and restaurants.  They also carry gifts and home goods, as well as great decorating inspiration.

Their store is carefully curated and you can feel the loving care they put into creating a welcoming and attractive atmosphere.  I love the friendliness of the staff and the way they provide education regarding plant care in a simple, no-nonsense way.  

Their air plant selection is amazing.  They even have jellyfish air plants!  I was also informed that they only purchase their plants through ethical sources, to help protect and maintain our earth’s valuable ecosystems.

In conclusion, dear friends, if you are looking for a botanical pick-me-up, you know where to go.  If like me, you have a thing with plants, you will not be disappointed!  For more information, see Botanic & Luxe and DIG Gardens
