About Us

Sister Sunflower was founded in 2019 by a botanical babe with a passion for plants and a frustration with the limited selection of houseplants available at big box stores. She wanted to create a place where people could find unique and interesting plants, and learn how to care for them properly. They also wanted to create a community of plant lovers where people could share their knowledge and passion for plants.

Kay has always been interested in plants. She grew up gardening with her great-grandparents back in California, and often spent time exploring the local botanical gardens and greenhouses after relocating to Philadelphia. Surprised and disappointed by the lack of variety and quality of plants found at big box stores, she knew that there had to be a better way to get plants.

Thus Sister Sunflower was born. Wanting a place where people could find the same kind of unique and interesting plants that they loved. They also wanted to create a community of plant lovers where people could share their knowledge and passion for plants.

Quickly gaining a following of loyal customers who appreciated their knowledge of plants and their origins.
