They host a lot of classes to bring the community together, learn about different types of plants and the best ways to keep them alive.

Green Fields Nursery

Green Fields Nursery began way back in 1923 when a small grower shared his planting ideas with his friends and neighbors; it soon grew into a family-operated, full-service nursery that continues to be an integral part of the neighborhood.

Their collection of pots and vases shouldn’t be overlooked either – there are some really unique minimalist finds that I haven’t seen anywhere else.
Urban Plant Therapy
While there’s no brick-and-mortar location for Urban Plant Therapy, I couldn’t compile this list without including them. The small business sells, designs, maintains, and leases greenery of all sorts for your home or office.
Yes, you can lease plants and you can hire this company to come to take care of your plants for you and make sure they thrive.
They have an enviable selection of indoor plants which they deliver and will also walk you through the best way to maintain them, should you choose to care for them yourself.
The idea of leasing a plant and having someone come take care of them regularly is a fairly new concept but one that Baltimore embraces happily.
