$7/month and up from Succulents Box
If you’re just getting into plants or have an affinity for low-maintenance greenery, Succulents Box is a great entry point. The subscription service lets you choose from a variety of boxes that feature air plants and/or succulents, as well as delivery frequency, including monthly, quarterly, six-month, and 12-month options. There’s also an option to add clay pots and other accessories to your boxes. So what kinds of succulents will subscribers find in each box? California-grown varieties, like Mardi Gras rosettes, tomentosa bear paw, and string of bananas.
Horti
$20/month and up from Horti
It’s all about customization with Horti, a plant subscription box that offers one-, six-, and 12-month subscription options. Choose your 6-inch pots, which come in four different designs, as well as plan options that include “new to planting,” “pet-friendly,” and “Horti’s pick.” Monthly subscribers will first receive plants that are easier to care for before moving on to more exotic flora, while six-month and yearly subscribers will receive a plant program designed to build lasting plant care habits, with tips on repotting, propagating, and grooming. The latter two subscriptions might include tools and accessories some months, and cost of shipping is included.
Knock! Knock!
$195/year from Knock! Knock!
Want fresh flowers year round? Knock! Knock!’s plant subscription service delivers blooms you can plant three times a year: fall, spring, and summer. Each delivery includes two arrangements, which are packed in plant-friendly trays that can be easily transferred into your own planters. Your front porch never looked so good.
Lively Root
$120/year and up from Lively Root
Like a few other companies on this list, Lively Root offers quarterly plant subscription boxes for easy-care and pet-friendly plants. But it also offers a “rare and special” box for those who are looking to infuse their plant collection with something different. Each box is shipped every three months, and includes a 6-inch grow pot (the easy-care subscription also offers a smaller, 4-inch grow pot).
Lunarly
$42/month and up from Lunarly
You might get a houseplant with your Lunarly subscription … or you might not. The monthly self-care box will either include a curated plant or a hand-poured natural candle — it all depends on the moon, of course. Along with a plant or candle, subscribers may also receive intention-setting tools, crystals, essential oils, plant accessories, and other ethereal objects.
