About Emm's Plant House
A plant business built to keep growing
Emm's Plant House is a family-run houseplant business based in Christchurch, Dorset. We bring together carefully chosen plants, practical plant-care support, floristry, workshops and local plant services — with the aim of helping more people enjoy growing plants with confidence.
Plants are at the heart of what we do.
From carefully chosen houseplants and specialist care tools to floristry, workshops and local plant services.
Our story
A family-run plant business that keeps growing
Emm's Plant House is an independent, family-run business built around a genuine interest in houseplants and the people who grow them at home.
What began as a plant-focused business has developed into something broader: an online houseplant shop, a growing library of practical plant-care tools, local plant services, floristry, workshops and a presence at horticultural shows.
We want Emm's to work equally well for somebody choosing their first houseplant and for an experienced collector looking for something more unusual. That means good plants matter, but so do clear information, practical support and a buying experience that feels personal rather than anonymous.
The people behind Emm's
Practical experience behind the plants and flowers
Emm's combines floristry and horticultural experience, helping us bring together plant retail, practical care, floral work and the wider direction of the business.
Steve
Steve has a background in horticulture and brings that experience to the plant side of Emm's, including growing, plant care, sourcing, services and the longer-term development of the business.
What matters to us
Knowledge, choice and confidence
We are building Emm's around the idea that buying and caring for plants should be enjoyable, informed and approachable.
Plants with character
From familiar houseplants to distinctive foliage and collector plants, we choose plants for form, interest and the enjoyment they can bring to a space.
Care beyond the sale
Our Plant Care tools are designed to help customers understand light, watering, soil, flowering and common problems after a plant has arrived home.
Real-world support
Plant MOTs, repotting, holiday plant sitting, styling and business plant services extend that support beyond the online shop.
Always developing
We continue to expand what Emm's can offer through new plants, better care information, workshops, floristry and our longer-term growing ambitions.
