How does it work/how long does it take?
First, you choose your container or plant art project. Printed project guides are at each table, but a Plant Place team member will be happy to provide guidance and helpful hints. The Plant Place provides all materials and plants needed to complete your project. Projects usually take 1 to 2 hours to complete, but very large projects can take longer. We will not rush you.
How do I take care of succulents, cacti and air plants?
The Resources section of our website has complete succulent, cacti and air plant care instructions and tips.
What is the difference between a Party and an Event?
When a Party booking is made, the host is responsible for paying for all the projects completed by party attendees. This includes the $100 deposit for parties over 20 people. All deposits will be applied to the final party bill.
For Events, each event attendee is usually responsible for paying for the project that is completed. The event host sets up all the details, and we will provide a link for your attendees to confirm their attendance and submit a deposit. Every deposit goes straight toward each person’s final bill.
How much does it cost?
Cost is based on the container or plant art project chosen, and includes all plants and/or materials to make the plant art piece. The Plant Place offers a variety of terrarium containers and plant art projects to choose from that range in price from $15 for small air plant terrariums, to $100+ for our larger projects. Our average project price is around $35. We do have a bring your own container opportunity. We charge $4 per inch wide of the container (some containers require a custom price, so please be flexible with us).
Do you sell food and drink?
No, but BYO drinks and light snacks are welcomed.
How old do you have to be to create plant art?
Creating terrariums and plant art is easy so ALL AGES ARE WELCOME, but age 3+ is recommended (with adult supervision of course). We are handicapped/wheelchair accessible, just please contact us in advance so we can arrange for parking and entry (we have a rear entrance).
Will I get dirty?
Working with natural things like plants, soil, rocks, and sea shells is a way to get closer to nature and be creative. You might get a little dirty in the process, but dirt can always be washed off!
