About our Shop

How it Started.

Makoré, was founded as a reaction to an explosion of online plant stores and sales apps offering an even larger variety of tropical and rare plants. We wanted a store that offered a calm, and quiet alternative to the rushed, pressured, false urgency created to upsell you at every turn. We wanted a store grounded in old world craft, grounded in science, and managed with plant health care best practices. We wanted to show our community beautiful plants, elegant planters, and a supportive plant culture no matter how far along you are in your plant journey.

What We Crave.

Most of all we craved design forward, plant forward, calm spaces. This is how our vision, to make every space calmer and more beautiful with living plants, was born.

Our Experience Matters.

Our extensive experience sourcing, monitoring and creating both indoor and outdoor landscapes across the United States and locally in the Charlotte, NC metro-area gives our small shop an edge.
