One reason we love them so much is our grower, Sara. These plants are her passion. Each succulent we sell has been hand started and cared for by her. We tell customers to send us photos if they are having trouble with a plant they've purchased because Sara is always happy to help us figure out what might help get the succulent back on track. They can live a long time, and we want them to live long happy lives keeping our customers company.

I've recently brought some strange things into my bedroom; a vintage spoon-holder, from the days when folks collected spoons from their wild travels, and a china hutch. This is all in the name of finding organizational solutions that fit my specific needs. When fine-tuning organization, you have to really open your mind to find the best, and most beautiful, options.
Read MoreIn this business we go into so many homes, we can't help but consider life in another house. In this week's The Tulsa Voice, Ashley Daly weighs the pros and cons of moving and what it takes to sell a house. Below is a snippet and a link to the full article.
I feel like I’m in a relationship with my house. I made a commitment to it. I signed stuff. Money was exchanged. I spent more to be legally bound to my house than to my spouse. I dedicate more hours to cleaning it than I do to cleaning myself. That’s love.
