Poppy’s Potting Shed is an immersive plant shop that truly embodies the meaning of an indoor urban jungle.
The new Leeds plant shop far more than your standard garden centre, it’s 1000 sq ft of green goodness. Located on Kirkstall Road, the new plant store will be opening on Saturday 13 November.
The store is designed for the ‘gram and visitors will be obsessed with its indoor jungle design and truly immersive experience.
To help you select your perfect plant, Anna has designed a plant menu board with all the information you need.
For those wanting to get some hands-on experience, a series of workshops will be planned in to the calendar for future months. From terrarium to wreath making and plant and prosecco evenings, there truly will be something for everyone to get involved in.
The new store is replacing owner Anna’s former retail space in Armley and is three times the the size of her quaint potting shed.
Like many innovative stores popping up in Leeds recently; the idea stemmed from the first lockdown in April 2020, when many of us were sent home and had time to reflect on their personal careers and spot gaps in the wider market.
Any keen gardeners or indoor ‘plant mums’ will remember the shortage of seeds, soil and full-grown plants.
Finding an innovative solution to the shortage, Anna, a former Personal Trainer, began sourcing plants from wholesalers and helping family and friends to keep their gardens growing throughout those months that felt like forever.
As lockdown eased, Anna began to hold a series of plant pop-ups at her partner’s gym, Implexus, and this led to her first opening in Armley.
After the success of the Armley store, Anna is celebrating 16 months of successful planting business with a brand new store.
The immersive urban jungle is covered head-to-toe in greenery and is set to offer national delivery so that those not in close proximity to the Burley store don’t have to miss out.
Head over to Poppy’s Potting Shed on Kirkstall Road in Burley from Saturday 13 November.
