INHERITED A PLANT?
You Did Not Ask for This Jungle
If you have inherited plants you do not know how to care for, we can help find a better route for them.
PLANT RESCUE STARTS HERE
Leaf Line Rescue Service
Can’t keep the plant anymore? That does not have to mean the end of the road.
Leaf Line is our plant rescue service for houseplants that need another chance. Send us a few details, tell us the story and we will help work out the next step.
SOMETIMES PLANTS NEED A NEW ROUTE
Why People Use Leaf Line
There are loads of reasons a plant might need to move on. None of them mean it should automatically end up in the bin.
RUNNING OUT OF SPACE?
The Jungle Got Too Big
Collections grow. Homes do not. Sometimes something simply has to move on.
LIFE CHANGED?
You Cannot Give It What It Needs
Moving, work, family, health or just not having the time can all change what is realistic.
PETS & PLANTS
The Plant No Longer Fits the Home
Sometimes a plant and a curious pet are simply not a good combination.
NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE DOING?
You Are Completely Out of Your Depth
If the plant came with no instructions and you have no clue what it wants, that is completely fine.
JUST NEEDS ANOTHER CHANCE
Rescue Before the Bin
If you cannot keep it, Leaf Line gives the plant another possible way forward.
HOW LEAF LINE WORKS
Send the Plant’s Story
You do not need a perfect plant name, full care history or anything complicated. A few useful details are enough to get the conversation started. Please contact us before bringing a plant into the Jungle so we can check whether Leaf Line is the right route first.

Its Story
Inherited it? Moving house? Need the space back? Tell us what has happened.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU CONTACT US?
Give the Plant Another Chance
Leaf Line is about keeping plants moving forward when their current home is no longer the right place for them. Acceptance is not automatic, and the exact next step depends on the plant and its condition.
WE REVIEW THE DETAILS
Is Leaf Line the Right Route?
We will look at the photos and information you send us. Not every plant can be accepted, so please wait for confirmation before bringing anything in.
WE AGREE THE HANDOVER
Keep It Simple
If Leaf Line is suitable, we will explain what needs to happen next and how the plant can get to us.
THE PLANT MOVES ON
A Better Next Step
Once accepted, the exact next step depends on the plant and its condition. The aim is to give it a suitable route forward rather than promising one particular outcome.
IS LEAF LINE RIGHT FOR YOU?
It Might Be If…
You have inherited plants you never planned to care for.
You are moving and cannot take the full collection with you.
A plant has become too large for your home.
Your pets and the plant are not a good match.
You simply do not have the time to look after it anymore.
You would rather rehome the plant than throw it away.
LEAF LINE QUESTIONS
A Few Things You Might Want to Know
What is Leaf Line? +
Leaf Line is the Oh Shoot! Plants rescue service for houseplants that need another route.
If you can no longer keep a plant, send us a photo, some basic information and its story so we can work out whether Leaf Line is suitable.
Do you accept every plant? +
Not always. We need to see the plant and understand its condition before confirming whether Leaf Line is the right route.
Please contact us before bringing anything into the Jungle.
Do you buy plants through Leaf Line? +
No. Leaf Line is a rescue and rehoming service rather than a plant buying or trade in service.
We will confirm whether we can accept the plant once we have seen the details and its condition.
Do I need to know what plant I have? +
No.
If you know the plant name, great. If you do not, send us clear photos and any information you do have.
Can I use Leaf Line for an unhealthy plant? +
You can still contact us if the plant is struggling. Send clear photos and tell us what you know about the problem.
We can then let you know whether Leaf Line is the right route or whether another service such as the Plant Clinic would make more sense.
What if my plant has pests? +
Tell us before any handover.
If you know or suspect that the plant has thrips, spider mites, mealybugs, scale, fungus gnats or another pest issue, include that information from the start.
Can I send more than one plant? +
Yes, you can contact us about more than one plant.
Send clear photos and basic information for each one so we can understand what you have and advise on the next step.
How do I get the plant to you? +
Please contact us before travelling with the plant. Once we have reviewed the details and confirmed Leaf Line is suitable, we will explain the handover arrangement.
What happens to a plant once you accept it? +
The exact next step depends on the plant and its condition. Leaf Line is about giving the plant a suitable route forward rather than promising one particular outcome.
How do I start a Leaf Line rescue? +
Use the contact form or message us with a clear photo, a short description and the story behind the plant.
We will then come back to you with the next step.
