About the Company

We're a budding home decor start-up, yet a leading one in the D2C space.

Two years ago, with a small team from Indore, we launched our game-changing self-watering planters. We believed then, as we do now, that home decor should be both beautiful and hassle-free.

Our self-watering plants with planters were an instant hit. Customers loved the idea of watering their plants just once a week. It's made plant parenting a breeze. And with their continued support, we've become known for delivering top-notch products that combine style and function seamlessly.

Our goal is to shake up the home decor industry by offering innovative solutions. We promise quick delivery of live plants, stunning design, premium quality, and easy plant care.

Join us as we pave the way for a new era in home decor
