Something I tell people when I conduct my workshops is that our tropical houseplants are all just plants from tropical forests. As in, they are just like the shrubs and underbrush that we see in our forests .. but in the tropics! - - This picture is supposed to give you a better idea of this concept (a 📸 is worth a thousand words after all 😉). The plant you see both growing on the ground as ground cover and growing up the palm trees is #pothos 🌿 a staple house plant, if you ask me!!! - - What I love about this photo is that it also shows you that when the pothos finds a plant/tree to climb, the leaves start to get much bigger and the verigation gets more defined. We often have pothos as a hanging plant, which is totally cool, but you can also have it as a climbing plant! - - You can use many different items for the pothos to climb, but one of the best is a moss pole. I sell these (made to order) in my shop 😁 and I also conduct workshops on them! Currently I'm still in the beautiful Columbia, I'll be back in O-Town on Wednesday, but if you wanted to check out the shop (432 1/2 Preston st) it's open. The last time I was there, there were many pothos to choose from 💚🌿🌴 #terravelta #plantsmadesimple - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #plantvibes #urbanjungle #urbanjunglebloggers #plantlady #makermode #botanicalwomen #botanical #indoorplants #foliagefriday #plantobsessed #iloveplants #plantsmakemehappy #ottawabusiness #ottawablogger #plantshop #plantsplantsplants #succulentsunday #plantcare #happyplants #thestruggleisreal #alltheplants #planttherapy #horticulturetherapy #botanist

My hubby and I are officially on our HONEYMOON 😆👩‍❤️‍👨💋 We will be in the beautiful Columbia for the next 2 weeks. There isn't internet out here, so I won't be answering inquiries or doing much posting ... whomp whomp I know, bit this gurl needs a true BREAK! - - If you're curious about the shop, it will be open on Jan 2nd 😉 check @freewheelingcraft for shop hours. Thanks for a great 2019 folks! It's been a blast 🌵🤸🖖 #terravelta #vacationmode - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #plantgang #succulents #succulentgarden #succulentsaturday #locallygrown #ottawabusiness #ottawablogger #torontolife #plantvibes #conservatory #greenhouse #makersgonnamake #plantshop #plants #plantsofinstagram #houseplants #greenhouselove #houseplantlove #plantshop #plantlady #crazyplantlady #interiorrewilding #iloveplants #planttherapy #greenthumb

OMG it's the Monday BEFORE. Christmas 🤗🤸🎅 and it's #monsteramonday so I'm posting one of my dream plants, a verigated monster. - - If you didn't know already ... I flipping LOVE Christmas. Like. A lot. I'm a grown ass woman and I listen to the jingles, decorate my house, dress like an elf, get gifts for all the humans. I honestly think it's the "most wonderful Time of year". It's not about the gifts, it's about the showing of appreciation to those who you Love. - - So from my heart to yours, thank-you for all your support this past year. It's been a DOOZY 🤯 I'm so proud of myself for taking the time I needed to heal after the deaths in my fam, but I'm also proud that I was able to push my biz forward and start my little pop-up on Preston 💚 thank you so much for coming out and allowing me to do what I love!! - - On that note, IF you're the super last min prezzie-purchaser, the Shop is open tomorrow from 9-2. I'll be there from 9-11 ☺️ and remember EVERYTHING Terra Velta is 25% off. There are so many gifts you can give for less than $20, and cute cards ext. Nothing says I appreciate you more than a PLANT 😝🌵 #terravelta #happyholidays - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #iloveplants #plantsarefriends #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsmakemehappy #botanical #indoorgarden #urbanjunglebloggers #houseplantclub #houseplants #houseplantlove #plantshop #plantlady #crazyplantlady #girlswithplants #plantsofinstagram #ottawabusiness #ottawablogger #support613 #yowcitystyle #greenhouselife #monsteradeliciosa #monsteraleaf #monsteramadness #plantobsessed #swisscheeseplant

Hey y'all 💚 as some of you may have heard: the pop-up is closing in mid-January 🎉 as sad as I am, it's been a serious fab experience!!! I've LOVED creating my own little botanical oasis, it's meant SO MUCH to me that all (well many) of you have come out and supported me during this journey. - - OMG, I've loved having a plant shop! Like. So much!!! But at the end of the season .... All my plants will have to come back to my HOME 😳 and I don't have that much space 🌱🌿🍃☘️🌵🌿🍃🌱🌾🌵🌱🌿🌱🌿🍃🍀🌵🌱🍃🌾🌵🍀 - - SO! tomorrow I'm doing my LAST restock for my little plant shop. I've got thousands of airplants, hundreds of leafy-lovelies, and dozens of neat ooak planters ☺️ and they are ALL on December 25% OFF 🤯 Dec 20-24! - - That's right! You need a gift? I've got you covered. There are hundreds of options to get people that are $25 and UNDER! You want to up your house plant game? I've got you covered! I have a great selection of rare (and rare adjacent) succulents, grown by me, and tropicals!! Not sure where to find the plants your looking for? I'll be in the shop Friday and Sunday, come on in and ask 😉 #terravelta #plantsale - - - - - Picture commissioned by: @freewheelingcraft - Photographer: @rothbauerstudio @ottawaneighbours - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #613 #613love #yowcity #ottawalife #ottawamakers #ottawalove #ottawaevents #yow #yowcity #airplant #airplantsarecool #airplantworkshop #tillandsialove #tillandsia #ottawabusiness #coolplants #urbanjungle #urbanrewilding #meandplantsarefriends #plantgang #botanicalbeauty #botanicalwomen #plantselfie #chickswithplants #crazyplantlady #plantparenthood

About Terra Velta

TV is about enjoying your indoor spaces while walking lighter on this earth. Many tropical plants are a tax on the environment, which is why I grow them right here in Ottawa!

I put each plant in a vintage or upcycled container, which means that you will get a one of a kind item, at no cost to our earth.
