What is a Plant Witch?
The Green Path
A Plant Witch (or Green Witch) is someone who follows what is sometimes referred to as “The Green Path.” My favorite definition is from The Green Witch by Arin Murphy-Hiscock.
“ A Green Witch is defined by their relationship to the world around them, by their ethics, and by their affinity with the natural world…..The path of the Green Witch is an intensely personal path that integrates ability, likes, dislikes, the climate of a particular geographic location, and interaction with the energy of that environment. It isn’t a tradition so much as a personal adaptation of an ideal…..A Green Witch, then, is someone who lives the Green Path and is aware of how the energy of nature flows through her life and environment, even if that environment is not the traditional garden and forest setting popularized by fairy tales and romanticized notions.”

Who is the Plant Witch?
Lulu
The Salem Plant Witch is the brainchild of Lulu Ayube. Created in August of 2020, A plant enthusiast of over a decade, Lulu wanted to create something that blended both practical house plant knowledge and indoor displays that were easy to care for. After many years of working in Human Services, Lulu came to house plants as a reprieve from the stresses of her professional life. The more she began to learn about them, the more she began to connect to the concept of keeping “Green Space” in her home. Gradually, it became an integral part of her spiritual identity. At the start of 2020, Lulu had made the decision to transition into a career more in line with the promotion of Green Spaces. Unfortunately, a significant knee injury/subsequent surgery and COVID19 made finding work in a Green House or a Flower Shop a virtual impossibility. Not content with the limitations that restricted her hopes, The Salem Plant Witch was born and raised in Lulu’s home in Salem Massachusetts. She now lives and works happily there with her loved ones, 2 cats, 1 dog, and small jungle of plants.
