The Mad Potter - Saint Petersburg

Amy Webb may not always be mad, but she has always been a potter. Before she turned it into a business, plant care was her life-long hobby. Now she decorates public and private spaces with her living artwork. Her company offers maintenance, delivery, and on-site arrangement of container gardens anywhere in Pinellas County. She can give décor advice and knows how to pick out the right plants that will last.

​A little art always helps to bring a space to life, but plants offer even more. Sometimes I like to go to the park and just stare at the complex, interwoven textures and shades of green climbing over each other in a desperate race for sunlight. I love the diversity. Flowers are merely a bonus. Bringing them in to a backyard, lobby, or outdoor restaurant means I won’t have to go out of my way.

Originally an art major, Amy soon switched to biology. Now she not only knows which plants make the prettiest arrangements, but also knows all about which plants grow best next to which plants, their tolerances to sunlight, and how often they should be watered. This vast reservoir of knowledge she combines with her passion for digging in the dirt to produce living, growing sculptures for any venue.

“I consider my work to be living art, and the amount of knowledge and creativity it takes to successfully design plants is both fulfilling as a creative outlet and mentally stimulating. I also love being filthy and physically tired at the end of the day- it's truly gratifying.” – Webb
