The mamma behind the plants

Meet Brittany

I'm Brittany — mom of three, plant lover, and the face behind Mamma's Plants.

What began in 2019 making propagation stations — and later grew into a plant subscription service — has found a new home in workshops.

Working with flowers and plants has always been a creative outlet for me as I navigate motherhood, and I wanted to share that with others. I now run small-group houseplant and floral workshops in Cape Town that give people real, unhurried time to unwind, connect, and create. No experience needed — just curiosity and an open mind.

Because life is busy, and we all deserve a morning to slow down and just be. I'd love for you to come and join me.

What guests say

Real reviews from real workshop mornings.

Last weekend I took some much needed 'me time' & was treated to such a relaxing morning of flower arranging, great conversation and bubbly! It was a lighthearted, fun experience for mothersday. I appreciate the tips shared for flower arranging and enjoyed creating my own bouquet, it felt so personal (rather than receiving store bought flowers). Hoping to join another workshop soon x

We had the loveliest morning at the Bubbles and Blooms workshop arranging some stunning bouquets. Brittany is incredibly informative and her passion for all things flowers and plants shines through 🌷
R Roxanne M. Bubbles and Blooms guest ★★★★★
Highly recommend the Flower Arranging Workshop!! Brittany's knowledge on flower arranging and the tips and advice on aftercare helped reignite my love of arrangements and have ensured that my flowers still look as fresh as the day I arranged them!! I will definitely attend a workshop in future and want friends and family to experience the joy this workshop brings too!!
L Lucinda H. Bubbles and Blooms guest ★★★★★

M Marnél Happy Houseplants guest ★★★★★
We had such a lovely morning at the Mommy and Me plant potting workshop! Everything was so thoughtfully organised, and my girls loved decorating their pots with all the little stickers before planting. They loved choosing their own flowers, getting their hands dirty and planting their own little creations. It was such a fun morning and a wonderful way to spend quality time together.
D Dominique Mommy and Me guest ★★★★★
