About Us

Urban Greenhouse was born out of a love for plants and a rental dilemma. In 2021, during the COVID lockdown, our founder, Hannah, was stuck in Newcastle, away from her family, and surrounded by an ever-growing indoor jungle. With limited space and no way to drill into rental walls or ceilings, she had a vivid childhood memory—her mum’s brass tension pole, adorned with lush, cascading ferns. She searched high and low for one, but they were nowhere to be found.

Determined to bring this retro gem back to life, Hannah spent over a year perfecting the design, going through endless prototypes until she created the ultimate plant-loving essential. The Urban Greenhouse Plant Pole was born—and it took off! Selling out seven times and expanding with new products, we've become a go-to name for plant lovers worldwide.

Starting from a humble home setup on the Sunshine Coast, Urban Greenhouse quickly outgrew the kitchen, took over spare rooms and the garage, moved into storage sheds, and now proudly operates from our very own warehouse.

When Hannah isn’t packing orders or designing new plant-friendly solutions, you’ll find her tending to her tropical garden, mowing the lawn, or spending time with her four beloved dogs.

We’re passionate about helping fellow plant lovers create their dream indoor jungle—no drilling required. Welcome to Urban Greenhouse! 🌿✨
