Anne and Lola from Honey & Gunn

Hello from Anne and Lola – two dear friends who share a love of all things horticulture!

We prefer the simple, no-fuss houseplant, continually fall for the orchid, and push our plant style to match our décor. Anne is decidedly classic, white-washed, antiqued, and lovely. Lola can’t pass up an upcycle, crushes over large canvas art and falls for haphazard English anything. Where we decidedly agree – houseplants should fit squarely into your design aesthetic and ta-da! succulents provide the biggest design punch and bang for your buck. After much research, travel and a little luck we stumbled upon a cut succulent concept that fit both our styles and offered a replacement to short-lived cut flowers and often pricey table-top arrangements. It was modern. It was clean. It was new! Honey + Gunn launched 2017 to bring our find to you.

The cornerstone of Honey + Gunn design – the cut succulent. We love the predictability offered by the succulent cutting – the design stays firmly etched and the wild succulent growth is tamed. Honey + Gunn is our answer to contemporary succulent design – no water, no maintenance, no dirt. Simply bright green design that lasts. Our homes are filled with our creations – which stand as both art and conversation pieces. Far different than a potted fern or fiddle leaf, contemporary succulent design draws the eye and fills space with interest and often sparkle. Our ever-rotating succulent pieces grace our islands, console and dining tables – and serve as our design laboratory. We know what works and what doesn’t – and only bring to you our best version of what we love.

Now for the particulars
