The Sill

Got a sad, wilted-looking houseplant at home and no clue how to nurse it back to health? If you shoot an Instagram DM to staffers at The Sill—a New York-based plant company that expanded to Chicago earlier this year—along with a photo of your ailing plant, they'll offer tips on how to get it back in shape. Operating with the slogan "plants make people happy," the shop specializes in demystifying plant care and helping folks pick out plants to suit their lifestyle. Swing by the Lakeview storefront to browse plants arranged by their light requirements, or head to the shop's website to check out upcoming plant education workshops.
