Feel Good With Plants

At Plantitas Verdes, we see plants as living art -beautiful, evolving pieces that bring joy, spark creativity, and grow alongside you.

We collaborate with clients who value design and want their greenery to reflect their lifestyle, energy, and aesthetic. Together, we create curated, elevated spaces where plants aren’t just décor, they’re part of your story.

Founded by Val Esquivel, a first-generation Latina born and raised in Los Angeles, Plantitas Verdes blends culture, artistry, and intention. With a master’s from Pepperdine University and a lifelong love for music, design, and culture, Val infuses every project with heart, style, and soul.

Our mission is simple: to connect people with plants that truly belong in their spaces, so you’re not just surrounded by greenery, you’re connected to it.
