Rare specimens, handmade wares, and consignments from local artists, tucked into a storefront on Cambria Street with something for every kind of collector.
Jungle Gem Plant Co. opened its doors in Historic Cambria with a simple idea: a plant shop built around genuinely uncommon specimens, run by someone who actually hunts them down herself, in a storefront generous enough to also hold the work of other local makers.
"While rare plants are our specialty, we have something for everyone."
Alongside the aroids and variegates, you'll find handcrafted goods and consigned pieces from area artists: prints, pen & ink work, and one-of-a-kind builds that don't fit anywhere else in Christiansburg.
Every corner of the shop is organized like a specimen cabinet, grouped by what makes each plant worth seeking out.
Heart-leaf classics and hard-to-find variegates, sourced one plant at a time.
Draping, feathery growers for shelves, macrame hangers, and terrarium builds.
The jewel orchids, patterned begonias, and true collector pieces that give the shop its name.
Wooden and stone pieces, prints, and art from artists across the New River Valley.
Small, hands-on sessions in the shop. Moss, stone, and starter plants supplied. No experience required, just curiosity.
