What we're all about

Heavy Petal makes band tees — but instead of bands, plants.

Our soft graphic tees turn up the vibe of a houseplant or garden plant until you're like, 80 percent sure you saw them that one time at the 9:30 Club. Then we add a soft, vintage, wildly comfortable feel. So you can ~*~rock~*~ your favorite horticulture everywhere you go.

More t-shirts are coming soon. Our next music/plant combos will be certified bangers, so be sure to sign up for our newsletter.

We launched in October 2022 and are a women-owned small business. We live, garden and jam in Southern California.

All our tees are made in the USA.

Cofounders Chantal Aida Gordon and Ari Wells met while working at a greenery-filled ad agency. Ari was the creative director; Chantal was the senior copywriter. Between client pitches, they grooved to playlists and doted on the ponytail palm in Ari’s office. 

Chantal's also the cofounder of the gardening/design blog The Horticult and cowrote the houseplant book How to Window Box. Ari's also the cofounder and CCO of a boutique marketing agency in San Diego.
