Frequently asked questions
Are prices the same as veryplants.com?
Retailers typically price the mixes lower than our online store — they don't carry shipping cost the way we do when we ship from Montreal direct to your door. The trade-off is supply: each shop sets its own restock cadence, so a specific bag may not always be in stock.
Can I call ahead to reserve a bag?
Yes — most retailers will hold a bag for you if you call ahead, especially for the Aroid Mix which is the fastest-mover. Phone numbers are listed above for each shop. Pépinière Jasmin and Fleuriste Binette et filles in particular are well-stocked and used to taking hold requests.
Which Montreal shop has the best selection of all three Molly's mixes?
Pépinière Jasmin and Fleuriste Binette et filles both consistently stock Aroid, Succulent, and Orchid mixes. If you need to compare all three in person, those two are the safest bet. The other shops carry a subset — most carry Aroid, since it's the highest-demand product for the typical Montreal houseplant collector.
What if no Montreal shop has what I need in stock?
Order direct from veryplants.com — we ship across Canada from our Montreal warehouse, so Montreal addresses typically receive orders the next business day. Free shipping above $100 CAD.
How is Molly's mix different from regular potting soil sold at big-box stores?
Molly's mixes are soilless — built from bark, perlite, pumice, and coconut coir rather than peat-and-fertilizer potting soil. The result drains immediately, never gets waterlogged, and lasts 12–18 months without breaking down. Big-box potting soil is engineered for outdoor annuals; soilless mixes are engineered for indoor tropical, succulent, and epiphytic plants that need air at the roots. More on the difference.
