Hayley Claridge -

Owner of Jungle Botanics

Kia ora fellow nature lovers!

My name is Hayley & I recently have taken over from the lovely Rose, who created Jungle Botanics, as a way to share passion for plants and natural world with you all.

I am incredibly grateful to be able to do what I love every day. The magic of capturing a small slice of nature within a glass vessel that is a self sustaining ecosystem never ceases to amaze me and brings me joy & wonder every day.
All my terrariums are sealed ecosystems, meaning that they create their own natural water cycle within. The water condensates on the glass and then falls back down to the ground, beautifully mimicking Mother Nature.

I love that I can create something that is easy for people to care for and is also a unique and long lasting gift. I believe that nature heals, soothes and clears our head and that if we can all have a little bit of nature close by - we are happier.
My goal is to bring a bit of that happiness into your home, workplace or help you to share it with a loved one.
My terrariums are all lovingly curated by me at my home studio in Foxton beach, and with years of experience working with plants, I make sure each ecosystem has everything it needs to thrive and live a long and happy life.

“It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.”
― David Attenborough

Your support means the world to me. Every purchase from Jungle Botanics enables me to live my dream - working from home whilst being creative. I’m so grateful to be able to do what I love and thank you to each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart - Hayley X
