The Plant Doctor Stanmore was born in August 2019, founded by Nat and Ness. Nat house sat for Ness while she went on vacation for a month, and when Ness returned, all her sad dying plants were back to full health and growing and thriving! Nat had left small notes for Ness around the house explaining why each plant was sick and how it needed to be treated. Over the following months, Ness lost the notes, and her plants were dying again. At that time, Nat had about 500+ plants between her two studios and was also getting requests to teach. When new people would come to The Plant Doctor Stanmore studio, they would ask things like “How do you keep them all alive?” How do I make my plants grow as fast as yours?” ”Why did my terrarium die?” or even ”How did I kill a cactus?!” The Plant Doctor Stanmore team are a handful of wholesome people dedicated to bringing more plant knowledge, skills, and fun to as many people as possible.
