About Ghomssthar

Our story, mission, and the team behind Auckland's premium plant store

Our Story

Ghomssthar began in 2018 with a simple mission: to help people reconnect with nature through beautiful, healthy plants. Founded by two passionate botanists, Sarah and Michael, who saw a need for a different kind of plant store—one focused not just on selling plants, but on creating lasting relationships with them.

Starting from a small pop-up shop in New Lynn, we've grown into Auckland's premier destination for quality indoor and outdoor plants, combining botanical expertise with modern design sensibilities.

Today, Ghomssthar serves thousands of plant enthusiasts across New Zealand, helping transform homes, offices, and public spaces with carefully curated greenery that thrives in our unique climate.

Our Mission & Values

The principles that guide everything we do

Quality & Sustainability

We source only the healthiest plants, grown using sustainable practices. Each plant is inspected for quality and vitality before joining our collection. We partner with local growers whenever possible to reduce our carbon footprint and support New Zealand's horticultural community.

Education & Support

We believe knowledge is key to successful plant parenthood. That's why we provide detailed care guides, workshops, and ongoing support to help you develop a thriving relationship with your plants. Our team is always available to answer questions and offer guidance.

Community & Connection

Plants bring people together. We foster a vibrant community of plant enthusiasts through events, workshops, and online platforms where knowledge and inspiration can be shared. We actively participate in local environmental initiatives and donate a portion of our profits to conservation efforts.

Innovation & Design

We believe plants should enhance your space both functionally and aesthetically. Our design approach combines botanical science with modern interior design principles to create plant arrangements that breathe life into any environment while complementing your existing style.
