A plant for everyone.

The Purple Pepper Plant Shop is family owned and operated. We grow a large percentage of our plant selection ourselves at a separate location just 10 minutes away. We offer a wide variety of houseplants, tropicals, trees, shrubs and aquatics.

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just getting your green thumb dirty, we’ll help you find just the right amount of green for your home, and show you how to care for it.

Call us or stop by to ask about our selection. For large orders we ask that you call ahead so we can have what you need when you arrive.
