Free houseplants up for grabs at Drake Circus pop-up to help beat January blues

Green-fingered locals will be able to get their hands on a major giveaway courtesy of Drake Circus this Saturday (25th January), as the centre once again partners with independent local houseplant business, Nook.

The pop-up shop will be located in the centre’s Atrium event space, outside Primark, and will offer a range of houseplants suitable for everyone from expert plant-lovers to self-confessed plant neglecters, as well as access to expert advice from Nook’s onsite team.

What’s more, the first 300 customers to visit the pop-up store and sign up to Nook and Drake Circus’ newsletters will receive a free small houseplant to take home. 

Greg Lumley, centre director at Drake Circus and The Barcode, said: “Nook is a much-loved local business and it’s brilliant to once again be able to support the team and welcome them back to Drake Circus to host another amazing giveaway.

“We know how popular their last pop-up was at the centre, and we’ve no doubt this year’s will be just as successful, especially as people seek to brighten up their homes in the winter months.”

Houseplants have numerous benefits for both physical and mental health, from lowering stress and anxiety levels to improving mood, which can prove to be essential remedies as people look to combat the January blues and to add a little bit of joy to their homes during the darker nights.

Nook’s permanent store is situated on Ebrington Street in Plymouth, a one-stop-shop for houseplants, accessories and workshops. The team is passionate about indoor plants and are keen to promote their benefits for physical and mental health to shoppers across Plymouth.

NOTE: the 300 free indoor plants will be on a first come first served basis.
