Tropicals
Tropical specialist Michelle Laing
YES... AT GROBE'S WE ARE A LITTLE DIFFERENT!
It seems that tropical plants can be found everywhere - but once you start looking, it's often difficult to find something unique.
At Grobe's, we've taken a 'different' approach.
We don't have the luxury of thousands of square feet of heated greenhouse to display truckloads of 'sameness', so we carefully select top quality special plants in small quantities, and add 'special' and 'unique' to our offerings with every new order.
It means that those 'gems' you often don't see may not be here very long... but finding them is fun for us too! We are also happy to put special orders on our hunting list... and will look for you. Sometimes it does take patience... but we will try hard to find it. The plants below are just a small example of those plants we find.
We invite you to visit soon and experience what makes Grobe's 'different'.
Pothos or Money Plants are among the easiest indoor plants to grow. They grow well without much attention, and are known for their heart shaped leaves and twining nature. They will also grow in areas ranging from bright indirect light to little light at all. They are excellent air purifiers, and in many cultures they are reputed to bring good luck and positive energy to the rooms they are in!

SNAKE PLANTS - Sanseveiras
BLACK GOLD, SAYURI, LAUREN, HAHNII GOLD, MOONSHINE
Snake plants, also known as 'Mother in Laws Tongue' are one of the hardiest houseplant you can keep. Great for tough spots like low light areas, and tolerant of dry conditions, these tough plants are great for beginners. Known for their narrow upright forms, there are now also many newer varieties that are small and compact making them great for small spaces.
Succulents are great for bright sunny areas and can take dry conditions. With so many different types it's popular to make colourful arrangements for table centerpieces or to give as gifts. Slower growing than some other plants, growing one to a large size is an accomplishment people love to show off - and their easy care means that almost anyone will!
