Plants in the wild have developed a natural resistance to pathogens and pests and possess an incredible capacity to withstand environmental and biological challenges. However, because most houseplants are grown in nurseries and outside of their natural habitats, often times they will lack these defenses. That is why it is essential to provide them with the necessary building blocks to gain immunity and thrive while living in your home.

Here's why this is important to know as a plant parent: when you support and boost the immune system of the plants you care for, you are helping them strengthen their overall wellbeing and resistance.



This is why we crafted Sacred Soil and Sacred Leaf Tonics. They are made from ingredients plants naturally produce for themselves to grow stronger and resist environmental stressors. We choose plants that are superstars for their cellular water, vitamin, mineral, saponin and enzymes content including: Comfrey, Stinging Nettle, Alfalfa, Yarrow, Horsetail, Aloe vera, Neem bark, Soapnut berry, Tulsi, Lavender, Rosemary and Kelp.

We cold extract each ingredient to capture the most potent properties to infuse into our concentrated tonics. This process helps bolster the structural integrity of roots, stems and leaves helping your plants feel more at home in yours!


Here's why we chose plants high in saponin content:

Saponins naturally boost the overall immune system and health of the entire plant while increasing soil absorbency and the uptake of nutrients. This means more readily available nutrition for your plant to absorb more efficiently. Over time our tonics assist your plants become stronger with each application.

You'll begin to notice the radiant health beaming from the inside out as the relationship between bacteria and mycorrhiza is nourished and supported allowing your plant to gain a strong immune system from the ground up!

Wishing you an abundance of growth!
