2 Alocasia Amazonica / Alocasia x amazonica LP-AAZ-1216 $32.00 $16.00 This plant s arrowhead-shaped leaves have a lacquered dark green appearance contrasted with thick white veins. The Amazonica variety has been a houseplant staple since the 1950 s. Peacock Calathea / Calathea makoyana LP-PCC x 12 in / 23 x 30.5 cm $22.00 $11.00 This showy calathea leaf presents painterly markings in various shades of celadon, emerald, and white. As a member of the Marantaceae family, every night these proud plants fold up their leaves in victory.

3 Laeliocattleya Orchid / Dinard Blue Heaven LP-LCO-1216 $32.00 $16.00 Laeliocattleya is a hybrid of Laelia and Cattleya orchids, producing longer sepals with wide ruffled petals. Blue Heaven is known for its large bluish-purple flowers, up to 7 inches, making this plant a must have for collectors. It is a spring/ fall bloomer with a light fragrance.

4 Lady s Slipper Orchid / Paphiopedilum Magic LP-LSO-1216 $32.00 $16.00 The Lady s Slipper Orchid is known botanically as being zygomorphic, or having only one plane of symmetry. This guided me to truly embody the essence of a natural Living Pattern, allowing me to produce one of my most complex paintings yet. Pilea Peperomioides / Pilea peperomioides LP-PPP-1216 $32.00 $16.00 This is possibly the most coveted & sought after plant of our time. It is easy to propagate yet impossible to find. Pilea peperomioides fuses natural plant form & culture, making it the true go-to minimal modern houseplant.

5 Elegant Philodendron / Philodendron angustisectum LP-ELG-1216 $32.00 $16.00 This lesser-known philodendron presents the world with very decorative, finger-like lobed leaves, which will happily grow up anything it can get its roots on! We think it is a perfect addition for any stately #PhilodendronFriday.

6 Zebra Haworthia / Haworthia attenuata LP-ZHW-1216 $32.00 $16.00 These Southern Africa natives vary greatly in size, with rosettes ranging from 1 to 12 inches. This specimen was considerably smaller than the printed version so the detail of the graphic white lines could be studied and enjoyed. Jungle Peach Begonia / Begonia rex LP-JPG-1216 $32.00 $16.00 Begonia rex is famous for its complex patterns, asymmetrical leaves and vibrant colors. The species has been bred into hundreds of varieties that vary in shape, color and texture and more are being introduced every year.

7 Notocactus / Parodia mammulosa LP-NTC x 12 in / 23 x 30.5 cm $22.00 $11.00 This South America native is a small globose plant with deep ribs and long spines. The single amber bloom on the crown is very vibrant in color and shows off paper-thin petals toward the tips. They can grow up to 1 meter in height and are great for indoor cultivation. Sea Urchin Cactus / Astrophytum asterias LP-SUC x 12 in / 23 x 30.5 cm $22.00 $11.00 The Sea Urchin Cactus is a spineless species, but to me, they are very brave. Instead of spines, Sea Urchin Cacti have woolly areoles that form at the tip of the ribs and are speckled with white scales. This specimen s flower color is purple, but other varieties move right along the color spectrum, shifting between purple, red, orange and yellow.

8 Tillandsia Xerographica / Tillandsia xerographica LP-TLX-1216 $32.00 $16.00 Tillandsia xerographica is a bromeliad, which grows high in trees that receive the brightest light. It is native to semi-desert regions of southern Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. Pin-Stripe Calathea / Calathea ornata LP-PSC x 12 in / 23 x 30.5 cm $22.00 $11.00 The Pin-Stripe Calathea is a species native to South America. Many of the species are popular for their decorative leaves and colorful inflorescences. As a member of the Marantaceae family, every night these unusual plants folds up their leaves, earning them the name prayer plants.

9 Swiss Cheese Vine / Monstera obliqua LP-SCV x 12 in / 23 x 30.5 cm $22.00 $11.00 This vine belongs to the Monstera family, with natural holes just like the Deliciosa. My favorite feature of this plant is its ease of propagation.

10 Artist Prints Philodendron Radiatum Cluster Monstera Deliciosa Cluster LP-PRC-810 LP-PRC x 10 in / 20 x 25.5 cm 11 x 14 in / 28 x 35.5 cm LP-MDC-810 LP-MDC x 10 in / 20 x 25.5 cm 11 x 14 in / 28 x 35.5 cm $32.00 $42.00 $16.00 $21.00 $32.00 $42.00 $16.00 $21.00 A true tree hugger, this rare Philodendron does not form a trunk. Instead it uses a vine to climb along while securing aerial roots to trees. It is sometimes found growing along the ground. The leaf shape changes gradually from small, heartshaped leaves in young plants to large, deeply incised leaves in mature plants. No leaf is ever the same with Monstera Deliciosa. The iconic, split-leaved plant is at the head of the houseplant movement and for good reason. Its clever adaptation of natural holes allows sunlight to be shared with its fellow leaves, reminding us of the importance of unity.

11 Stationery Tropica Everyday Card Set LP-TPC-A x 5.5 in / 11 x 14 cm $18.00 $ blank folded notecards with matching envelopes. 2 of each design. Printed on natural cotton paper. Exotic Monstera and Philodendron leaves can vary in extravagant forms through all stages of these plants lives. This makes them highly unpredictable, but forever captivating.
