While we’d like to live in the plant-filled oases you see here, that isn’t always the reality now, is it? Whether you unintentionally kill every houseplant that enters your home (guilty) or you’re simply locked to your desk and are suffering from a bit of plantlife wanderlust, these Instagram accounts are here to help… in a major way.

This dreamy shelfie situation is just one of many whimsical displays you’ll find on this San Diego-based plant junkie’s account (think swoon-worthy reading nooks, hanging macrame nests, and cacti-topped surfaces).

Despite its tiny size, Danae and Bill Horst’s charming Pasadena, CA shop has plenty of botanical eye candy to go around. With chic, plant-friendly goods—like metallic misters, ceramic air plant cradles, and seagrass baskets—also on the scene, their feed is a lesson in caring for your leafy greens in style.

We’re kind of big fans of this local NYC plant shop. For starters, they’re experts on plants (and taught us how to keep our fiddle leaf figs and our monsteras alive) and their Instagram feed is awe-inspiring. Seriously.

We want to live in this Portland, Oregon plant shop (which is definitely not allowed). A close second? Following them on Instagram and receiving daily updates like this cute cactus and succulent mix.

The only word to describe this Cincinnati plant shop is cool. Their minimalist aesthetic and on-trend pots and accessories make this account worthy of a follow (and a visit, if you’re ever in town!).
