Our Mission

At In Vitro Vines, we make rare, exotic plants accessible for collectors, hobbyists, and plant enthusiasts — without the high price tag.

By specialising in precision tissue culture (TC), we bring healthy, lab-clean plants straight from our lab to your home, so you can enjoy unique plants safely and affordably.

Why Tissue Culture?

Tissue culture allows us to:
• Multiply rare plants efficiently, keeping costs low
• Deliver pest-free, disease-free plants
• Grow plants with consistent quality and vigour
• Offer plant varieties that are often impossible to find in traditional nurseries

All plants are sold in TC unless otherwise stated, which means they arrive in sterile vessels and will require acclimating at home. We provide guidance and optional acclimation kits to give you the best chance of success.

Our Story & Our Values

Anya founded In Vitro Vines out of a passion for plants and science. With years of collecting rare houseplants as a hobby, the goal was simple:
• Make rare plants more affordable
• Educate plant lovers about TC
• Give every plant a precision-grown start

Every plant in our collection is grown with care and precision, combining scientific know-how with a love for greenery.

• Quality: We ensure plants are healthy, pest-free, and carefully grown.
• Transparency: We are open about what TC plants are and how they need to be handled.
• Support: We offer resources, kits, and advice so your plants can thrive.
• Love for Plants: Every plant is grown with care — because we care about your plant journey.
