Our Origins
Hello, I’m Anna, the founder of Potclay Nursery and Potclay.com. I always believe that" If life is well-lived, we need to give back something to nature".
During my childhood days, I loved spending time with nature and fondly took care of my cute little garden in my native village. In the fast-paced life in Bangalore, I used to miss my childhood memories and unknowingly lost my connection with nature.
In my spare time, I built a small garden on my home balcony. A moment of realization stuck when I started feeling positive energy while taking care of the plants. I wanted to help demystify the concept of pants, make them accessible to non-horticulturists and elevate the experience beyond the local garden supply center.
That’s when I realized the pain felt by customers in selecting healthy and affordable plants eventually leading me to start the online plant delivery portal 'Potclay' in 2022.
A wise thought …
“There’s something in the simple act of being around, and caring for, plants that boosts our spirits and enhances our environments. It’s been established that every exposure to nature-from gardening to forest bathing to just sharing space with organic elements-mitigates the modern condition, that stressed-out state we find ourselves in all too often.
Plants create time and space to nurture yourself. If you’re not making time for them, you’re probably not making time for yourself either.”
