ENTREPRENEUR LAUNCHES BLACK-OWNED BOUTIQUE THAT DELIVERS PLANTS TO YOUR HOME

Nationwide  Leaf Me, a houseplant brand launched by founder Alexis Sims, is a Detroit-based online store that delivers tropical houseplants with health benefits directly to your home. The company also provides interior plant decor consultations to help clients pick the right plants for their light and humidity.

"At the start of my divorce, my mom gave me her arrowhead vine, my first plant. That plant is what got me through while taking care of a newborn and working full time. I'm excited to be on the other side of that storm and furthermore to be of service to others," says Alexis. "Also Black people especially have always had plants in their lives and homes. While this isn't new to us, we don't own enough of the market."
