Bad Plant Club

Meet the plants who rebel against expectations.

Somewhere in your education, you were taught what a plant was. You learned that they are sessile beings rooted to the ground, making their own food through photosynthesis and reproducing through seed.

But what if this was a limiting view of plants?

Outliers to these criteria are everywhere around us, pushing the boundaries of how we understand plants' capabilities. These rebels are our favorites.

We've rounded up twelve inspiring examples of plants refusing to fit into human-assigned norms. Bad plants, if you will. And we've started a little club together for 2026 - with official postcards.

BAD PLANT CLUB is a monthly postcard subscription that features a portrait of a plant on one side and an educational summary on the other, hand signed with love and delivered to your mailbox for $6 a month.

Yes - we are rebelling so hard that we are going back to snail mail. And we'd love it if you join us.

Postcards will be mailed on the 21st of the month. If you join the club after the 21st, you'll be in the queue to receive the next month's card. You have full control over your subscription and can easily cancel, pause, or skip a month from your subscription dashboard. 

The $6 monthly club price includes free shipping in the USA. International members can join for an additional $1 per month at checkout. Your postcard will arrive separately from any other items ordered together.
