Evening Primrose
Couldn't load pickup availability
Evening Primrose sounds demure, doesn't it? Like something that would apologize for blooming. Wrong. This candle struts into your living room wearing magnolia like haute couture, drops names like peony and amber, and makes your other candles feel underdressed. It's what confidence smells like after 9 PM.

The Journey
Candle Care
Candle Care 101 (Because You’re Fancy Now)
- Always trim the wick to 1/4" before lighting. Unless you love smoke and mushroom tops.
- Let it burn edge to edge the first time—3 hours minimum. This isn’t a quick fling.
- Make sure the wicks stay centered and upright (like your standards).
- Keep burn sessions to 4 hours max. Your candle needs a break too.
- When only 1/4" of wax remains, it’s time to say your goodbyes. Deep breaths.
Bonus: Recyclable & Reusable
- Packaging? Fully recyclable.
- That chic glass vessel? Keep it. Use it as a vase, pencil cup, plant pot, or rogue paperclip collector. You do you.
Soft Light. Bold Florals. Quiet Magic.
The Uncomfortable Truth About Our Candles
Yes, they're vegan. Yes, they're made from soy/coconut wax that burns cleaner than your conscience after deleting those text messages. Yes, they're hand-poured by people who probably have philosophy degrees and opinions about natural wine.
But here's what really matters: these candles will make you seem more interesting than you actually are. Light one during a dinner party and watch as your guests suddenly think you summer in places with unpronounceable names. Gift one and become the friend who "just gets it."
We're still the best bespoke seed company in North America. But now we're also the seed company that makes candles so over-the-top, so unnecessarily complex, so delightfully pretentious that even we're a little embarrassed by how much we love them.

Why let your flowers die when they can live forever?
These low-maintenance beauties can hang as wall art or add a pop of color to your tablescape, without ever needing water or sunlight. Perfect for those who want to show they care, but not enough to remember to water real flowers. They also make a perfect gift for someone who appreciates beauty without the commitment—because who has time to keep flowers alive, anyway?
Shido Seeds Almost Too Pretty to Plant

Inside each artfully designed packet, you’ll find top-quality seeds ready to grow into breathtaking flowers and delicious veggies. Sure, your garden will be stunning, but will it outshine the packaging? That’s a tough call.
