For nearly 40 years, plants have shaped our family’s life, home and work. What began as a personal obsession slowly grew into Happy Houseplants — now one of the UK’s best known independent houseplant brands, with a nationally recognised blog, collaborations with creative agencies and retailers, RHS Chelsea Gold Medal success and projects delivered across the UK.
But Happy Houseplants has never just been about selling plants.
We work with brands, creative agencies, media teams, authors, horticultural experts, content creators and organisations who want to bring plants into their work in a way that feels thoughtful, beautiful and genuinely useful.
Our collaborations have included retail projects, plant workshops, interviews, educational content, media features, botanical styling, photography, copywriting, event support and creative campaigns. We have worked across the UK, from Inverness and Cardiff to Brighton and London, supporting projects in shops, homes, events, public spaces and customer experiences.
We have supported projects connected to RHS Chelsea Flower Show and RHS Malvern, taken part in BBC filming connected to RHS Chelsea, worked with Anthropologie on retail and installation projects, and collaborated with magazines, plant experts, writers, creators and lifestyle brands.
We are Chelsea Gold Medal winners, but we are still a small family business at heart. That combination matters. It means we bring experience, care and credibility to a project without losing the warmth, flexibility and human approach that makes Happy Houseplants what it is.
A recent collaboration with BWP Group
One recent project involved working with BWP Group, an award winning UK creative and experiential agency known for producing campaigns, events and customer experiences for major retail and lifestyle brands.
Happy Houseplants supported BWP Group with specialist houseplant knowledge, workshop development, educational guidance and practical horticultural input.
The project was designed to make indoor gardening feel more accessible, engaging and customer friendly.
Our role included plant sourcing and preparation, workshop structure, plant care guidance, educational materials, styling advice, video support and practical knowledge around how people actually live with plants at home.
That is where we are strongest.
There is a big difference between plants looking good in a photograph and plants working properly in real spaces with real people. We understand both sides: how plants look, and how people care for them once the event, shoot or workshop is over.
Why collaborate with Happy Houseplants?
People come to Happy Houseplants because we understand plants, but also because we understand people.
A lot of people love the idea of houseplants but worry about getting things wrong. They worry about overwatering, choosing the wrong plant, finding enough light or not being “good with plants.”
We have spent years helping people get past that fear.
That calm, practical approach runs through our website, our blog, our videos, our customer service and our collaborations. We make plant care feel more approachable without dumbing it down.
For brands, agencies and media teams, that means we can help create plant-led projects that are visually strong, accurate, warm and useful.
We can support projects involving:
- Plant workshops and demonstrations
- Brand collaborations
- Retail events and customer experiences
- Botanical styling
- Plant sourcing for shoots, events and installations
- Educational plant content
- Plant care copywriting
- Magazine and media features
- Video and social content
- Wellbeing-focused workshops
- Interviews with plant experts, authors and creators
- Creative campaigns involving plants, interiors and nature
- Working with creators, experts and organisations
Happy Houseplants has always believed in collaboration.
We enjoy working with people who care about plants, interiors, sustainability, wellbeing, creativity and the natural world. That might be a plant expert with a new book, a creative agency planning a campaign, a magazine looking for trusted houseplant advice, a content creator with a strong visual style, or a brand wanting to make plants part of a wider customer experience.
Over the years, we have featured and worked with some brilliant voices from the plant world, including horticultural experts, authors, terrarium makers, biotope specialists, plant rescuers, photographers and creators.
Our audience comes to us for more than products. They come for advice, inspiration, stories and confidence.
That gives us a strong platform for thoughtful collaborations that feel useful rather than forced.
Our experience includes:
- Collaboration with BWP Group on plant-focused workshop content and educational development
- Projects and support work connected to RHS Chelsea Flower Show and RHS Malvern
- BBC filming and media work connected to RHS Chelsea
- Retail and installation projects with Anthropologie
- We’ve also helped style and dress spaces for filming, photography and creative projects
- Plant workshops and customer events delivered across the UK
- Magazine features, plant copywriting and educational content
- Interviews and collaborations with plant authors, creators and horticultural experts
- A Chelsea Gold Medal at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2022
- One of the UK’s most widely read independent houseplant blogs
- Hundreds of thousands of yearly website visitors looking for plant care advice and inspiration
A practical, down-to-earth approach. We are not interested in making plant care sound more complicated than it needs to be.
Our best projects are the ones that help people connect with plants in a real way: choosing them, styling them, caring for them, learning from them and enjoying them as part of everyday life.
Sometimes that means a workshop. Sometimes it means helping shape educational content. Sometimes it means sourcing plants for a shoot or installation. Sometimes it means writing plant care copy that is accurate, warm and easy to understand.
Whatever the format, the aim is the same: to bring plants into spaces, stories and experiences with care and credibility.
Let’s grow something together
If you are planning a workshop, event, campaign, article, retail project, shoot or creative collaboration involving plants, we would be happy to hear from you.
Happy Houseplants can support projects with plant expertise, sourcing, styling, educational content, workshops, copywriting and practical horticultural guidance.
Whether you are a brand, agency, journalist, author, creator, designer or organisation, we are always open to thoughtful projects that help more people enjoy living with plants.
