Ethical Sourcing of Indoor Plants

FAQ About Ethical Sourcing of Indoor Plants

What are some common plants that are often sourced unethically?

Some common plants that are susceptible to being sourced unethically include succulents like cacti, orchids, and certain ferns. Rare and exotic varieties are particularly prone to overharvesting from the wild, as they are often in high demand and command higher prices. These practices can lead to unsustainable and potentially illegal collection methods, thus threatening the species and their natural habitats.
