The Plant Gays is a vibrant plant boutique that originated during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020, founded by David and Aidan as a hobby that quickly blossomed into a cherished local business. The duo began their journey by crafting and selling unique concrete planters and a diverse collection of indoor plants at local markets and pop-up events, successfully capturing the attention and hearts of plant enthusiasts in their community. With locations in the German Village and East Market, The Plant Gays provides a distinctive shopping experience for individuals interested in enriching their spaces with greenery.
David brings a background in landscape architecture, while Aidan’s expertise lies in interior design. Together, they blend these complementary skills to offer exceptional plant design and consultation services tailored for residential and office spaces. Their mission centers on the belief that plants enhance creativity, increase productivity, and purify the air, and they are dedicated to helping customers navigate the process of incorporating plants into their environments.
In addition to an extensive selection of indoor plants, rare flora, and stylish accessories, The Plant Gays also provides practical services such as repotting and watering to ensure that every plant thrives. They actively engage with their community through various events, including holiday festivities and special promotions that encourage local support. As an LGBTQ-owned business, The Plant Gays not only celebrates diversity in their offerings but also in fostering a welcoming atmosphere where everyone can appreciate the joy that plants bring to their lives.
