The discovery problem
Search engines favor chains and generic garden centers. Enthusiasts looking for rare tropicals, terrarium species, or serious nursery stock need signals that a shop is worth the drive.
What curation adds
A curated directory filters for plant-first businesses, checks legitimacy, and surfaces shops that behave like partners to the hobby — not seasonal big-box aisles.
How to use The Leaf List
Start from your state or city, browse categories that match your collection, and follow links to each shop’s site or social channels when you are ready to buy.
