Tula Opens “The Arid Room”: A Space Solely Dedicated to the Weird and Wondrous Plants of the Desert Regions.

Tucked away on a quiet street in Greenpoint you'll find a 1200 sq ft plant oasis like no other. With the feeling of botanical garden more than a plant shop, Tula has taken its plant curation to the next level with the opening of The Arid Room. A 400 sq ft corner space dedicated to rare and unusual cactus and succulents.

Tula founders designed the space so visitors could not only see the difference between tropical and desert plants, but feel the environmental difference as well. The Arid Room is designed to be hot and dry, where the tropical side is cool and humid - just as nature intended.

With the plant industry raging and growing at a rapid pace, Tula takes its time to curate and source extraordinary plant species that inspire customers to go beyond the common houseplant. And with a team of designers and horticulturists ready to help, visitors leave feeling inspired to design with plants, while equipped with the knowledge to keep them alive.

Features of The Arid Room include a 30 year old Jade plant, a 12 ft Euphorbia, a cuttings table where visitors are invited to pick and plant their own succulent cuttings, cactus candy, loads of affordable terra cotta planters and many rare and hard to find cacti and succulents. Make sure to carve out some time, as a visit to Tula is an experience that is better when you’re not in a rush.
