Our Story

Tiny Gardens by Teri began with a simple idea: vintage china deserves a second life, and succulents make wonderful companions for it. There is something so satisfying about pairing delicate china with a hearty plant. Each piece starts with a carefully sourced teacup or vessel, chosen for its pattern, its maker, its history, and then paired with a plant that suits what that piece can hold. Some cups call for a single striking specimen. Others have room for a fuller garden. The vessel always dictates.

Every plant is potted by hand in Glenside, Pennsylvania, and finished with a top dressing chosen to complement the china's palette. You will find pieces from makers like Royal Doulton, Wedgwood, and Royal Albert, alongside French Limoges porcelain from Haviland and other well-loved patterns collected one vintage shopping trip at a time.

Tiny Gardens is proud to be found at Morris Arboretum & Gardens, where you can find a piece for your windowsill, your desk, or your tea table.
