Houseplant lovers have a new haunt in Villeray, Montreal. Appreciated for its online store offering a great variety of plants, some of which are rare, Miss Boon now welcomes its customers in a concept space combining the sale of plants and accessories with that of juices, coffees and smoothies.

The place is also a shared workspace (with a terrace at the back); the owner Sarah Nagué having been challenged by the studies having demonstrated the impacts of a green environment on satisfaction, productivity and creativity at work. She has therefore set up two large communal tables in the heart of her shop, which also host horticultural and creative workshops every weekend, always on the theme of plants. In particular, you can learn the basics of horticulture, how to make a macrame planter or learn about botanical watercolors.

But above all, we find at Miss Boon an interesting selection of plants that will appeal to collectors (philodendron, anthurium, alocasia) and those who follow trends (Monstera deliciosapeperomia, pothos, calathea).
A sign that the popularity of indoor plants is not waning, another shop will open in mid-June a few streets away. The florist Binette et filles, established at the Jean-Talon market, will open a second shop inside the market. This will be dedicated entirely to the sale of plants.
