Plant shops in Leiden
Salie
Salie is a plant store that has an interior of a living room. It’s filled with plants, from cuttings to hanging plants, but also with plant pots and vintage items. At Salie, you’re also at the right place if you need plant advice, for example about the best spot in your home to place your new plant. You can also join a workshop, such as creating a kokedama or ecosystem. And: they offer cutting subscriptions! Every month you’ll get a different cutting in the mailbox. There’s a 3-month and a one-year subscription.

Plantenasiel Leiden
Even though plants are incredibly popular, people still throw away plants every day. Such a waste! At the Plantenasiel Leiden, you can bring plants that you want to get rid of, in order to give them a second life. And if you’re looking for a ‘new’ plant, you can adopt one! The Plantenasiel Leiden first ensures that the plants bloom again, and once they do they’re for sale for a small donation. These donations go to good soil, plant food and larger pots. So remember: it’s not a plant store, but a shelter.
Do you want to donate a plant? Or get your house more green? Plantenasiel Leiden is located opposite of Leiden Central, in the old primary school De Vlieger. They are open every Friday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., and the first Saturday of the month from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m..

For example, think of vases made of glass, ceramics and zinc – usually limited available. Besides that, you can sign up for a flower subscription, starting at € 15 per week including a loan vase and delivery. Ideal, right?
