Grounded’s 10-in Sansevieria Laurentii ($60)
Don’t underestimate the power of a plant. Grounded co-founders Mignon Hemsley and Danuelle Doswell sure don’t. These two Washington, D.C., friends and plant moms created an all-in-one plant shop, wellness studio, and cafe to promote mental health amongst the Black community. Grounded is a space, both virtual and IRL, where greenery and self-care go hand in hand. It’s a natural fit, considering that research has shown that houseplants can reduce psychological stress.
If you’re not sure where to start with plant gifting, this Sansevieria Laurentii, or snake plant, is a great option for newbies. It’s adaptable to a variety of light levels, is drought tolerant, and thrives in average indoor settings. “Snake plants represent luck, strength, and resilience. Their adaptability is a reflection of their natural will to survive, despite tough conditions,” per Grounded. “More than a symbol of luck, sharing space with a Snake Plant serves as a reminder of our own perseverance.”
