Our story

More than a plant shop

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts is a boutique collective on Brisbane's northside, bringing together dozens of Queensland makers, artisans and small businesses under one welcoming roof.

How it started

A joyful idea on Brisbane's northside

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts was built on a simple, joyful idea: create a space where the Brisbane northside community could shop locally, discover handmade goods and learn something creative. The playful name says everything about the spirit behind it.

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts operates out of Shop 1, 47 South Pine Road in Alderley, and it has grown from a plant shop into a destination that customers return to again and again. First-time visitors rarely leave empty-handed.

What we are

One shop. Dozens of makers.

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts is not a conventional garden centre. It is a boutique collective that brings together Queensland small businesses, makers and artisans under one roof, alongside an eclectic, ever-changing range of plants and handmade products.

Plants & Kokedamas

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts stocks a rotating selection of indoor plants, from devils ivy and monsteras to hanging baskets and handcrafted kokedama moss ball plants ready to gift or take home.

Gifts & Homewares

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts carries jewellery, crystals, candles, clothing, homewares, garden ornaments and locally produced goods, each chosen for its quality and the story behind it.

Creative Workshops

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts runs workshops for adults and children throughout the year, including terrarium making, kokedama classes, Turkish mosaic lamps, essential oils, painting and seasonal craft.

Local Collective

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts gives dozens of Queensland small businesses a place to display and sell their work. Shopping here means shopping local, every single time.

Queensland makers

A collective of creators, not a chain

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts operates as a boutique collective. Dozens of independent Queensland makers, artisans and small businesses display and sell their work inside the Alderley store. From hand-poured candles to handstitched clothing, from crystal jewellery to handmade garden art, every item carries the story of the person who made it.

I Wet My Plants Garden & Gifts actively champions local creativity and provides makers with a permanent, welcoming retail home. When you spend money here, it flows directly back into Brisbane's creative community.
