ABOUT
After falling in love with a terrarium hanging in her aunt’s Canadian home, our founder, Lucy, started researching different products and identified a gap in the market back in the UK. On the very same day, the brand name was decided and the business was established!
Since then, Lucy has immersed herself in the world of terrariums and succulents and her entrepreneurial spirit has helped The Urban Botanist blossom into the brand it is today.
Our passion for plants and using them to bring any space to life is at the heart of everything we do, from personally picking the most gorgeous succulents and cacti in Amsterdam to hand-crafting our stunning products back in Manchester.
Having plants in the home and workplace provides many benefits, and we want to continue promoting these to our customers. We have strong ambitions to continue to grow our brand and provide stunning terrariums, eco-systems and wall art to plant-lovers around the world.
We love to see The Urban Botanist products in your homes, so please follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter and share your photos using #MyBotanist.

Delighted not only with the product which was absolutely beautiful but also the lovely interactions with Lucy who provided a first class service and was able to answer all of my queries prior to purchase/delivery. Great product and great service and would definitely recommend.

My terrariums are one of my favourite things I have ever purchased. I've had 2 large ecospheres for over a year and despite having to trim them, they are thriving. They are perfect as I am normally rubbish with plants and watching them grow without needing any input from me is great. I initially got them as we were selling our house and wanted a centrepiece and so many people loved them and wanted to keep them- I refused and they've moved across the UK with me. I don't have to worry about my dog with them, and they are as vibrant as they were on the day I got them. The company is always great to deal with and so responsive- I've even gifted them to friends of mine who have been jealous of mine. You can't get a tour of my new house without me pointing them out and I've never found anything comparable. Would fully recommend and plan to get more for every other rooms in house
