Rooted Living

Houseplant and terrarium boutique. Top products: houseplants, bioactive terrariums, floral design supplies. Rooted Living is a Chicago-based retail establishment focused on indoor horticulture, home goods, and mindfulness-based community engagement. Operating as a plant-focused lifestyle boutique, the business specializes in the sale of houseplants and the provision of experiential horticultural education, including workshops on terrarium building and floral design. Their business model centers on sustainability and the restorative benefits of indoor nature, catering primarily to urban homeowners and individuals interested in slow, intentional living. Beyond standard retail plant sales, Rooted Living differentiates itself by offering hands-on, educational programming that connects customers with living ecosystems and artistic floral arrangements. By sourcing goods from independent Midwestern makers and promoting small-batch products, they create a community hub that integrates plant care with wellness-oriented activities such as macrame and embroidery.
