I spend almost every day surrounded by plants, learning about plants, and buying plants (yeah it’s pretty awesome). That’s why I started the Watson’s Finds, so Watson and I can play with all the cool plants and share them with YOU.
A local plant subscription service? No way!
Have you ever seen a subscription box like BarkBox or Kiwi and wished there was one for plants that live and thrive in the Virginia landscape? Have I got good news for you! For $66 per month (billed annually) you can join the area’s first ever plant subscription service. Each month you’ll receive three plants that I’m excited to share with you: one shrub and two perennials. If you like what you see and you want more, you’ll be able to buy them at 35% off of our retail price (for that month only).
Shipping plants in gallon pots and larger just isn’t practical so there will be three ways to get your monthly plants:
- Each month I’ll be hosting a pickup event at our outdoor classroom and plant lab in Culpeper. At that event I’ll share some information about the plants, answer your questions, and we’ll also have a class on something landscape-related. Classes are free to buyers club members. See the calendar of events for more details.
- If Culpeper is too far for you, I’ll do one “parking lot pickup” each month in northern Virginia. We’re still working out the location.
- For those unable to attend the pickup event, you’ll have the option to pick up your plants, BY APPOINTMENT, at our location.
What plants do I get?
Because there are so many great plants out there, we offer two ways to use our plant subscription service:
Virginia Native Plants
We search high and low for Virginia natives and occasionally nativars. I know some folks are purists and don’t consider nativars “real” native plants. If that’s you, this may not be the plant subscription service for you. I still think you’re awesome, I just don’t want you to be disappointed.
Watson’s Wild Card
I like plants and I get excited when I see something new and unusual. I also spend a fair bit of time visiting growers and nurseries. If you want the opportunity to get the plants that I just HAD to have, this club is for you.
Can’t decide, or worried you’ll miss out? Do both options! I won’t ever do the same plants in both subscriptions so you’ll get loads of plants to play with.
FAQ
Can I request a substitution?
Sorry, but no. This buyers club project is a labor of love so I have to keep it simple.
Can I pause my subscription?
We don’t allow that option at this time.
