Plant shop by appointment only, now you can come and go as you please. Laflamme will hold a pop-up at Hankyu Men's Tokyo.

You can visit only after looking at their Instagram, checking out the plants they have in stock, and making an appointment to come in. Such a plant shop is quietly located in Harajuku.

RAFLUM is a well-known green store that handles mainly popular agaves and other tuberous plants, and sometimes receives rare and coveted plants.

However, even if you are a plant enthusiast, the hurdle to entering the restaurant may be a little high in that reservations are required.

If so, we are pleased to announce the pop-up at Hankyu Men's Tokyo, which will open on May 11 (Wed.).

Last year, a pop-up was held at the Hankyu Umeda main store, and this time, a real store event in Tokyo is in full swing. A carefully selected selection of rare summer-type tuberous plants and many agaves will be on display.

The lineup looks like this.

Euphorbia girauminiana ¥59,400

Pachypodium macayense ¥88,000

Pachypodium brevicaure (Ebisu laugh) ¥39,600

Pachypodium gracilis ¥69,300

Agave titanota No.1 ¥49,500

Agave Horida (style of chika) ¥39,600

Senna meridionalis ¥88,000

The artistic shapes unique to tropical plants make you want to match them with artistic pots as well. For this pop-up, "Laflamme" has called together renowned ceramic artists. Shohei Harada, Ryuzo Shibuso VII, and Hidenori Nagumo will present pots created together.

Shohei Harada, bowl ¥5,940-¥22,000 ceramic figure ( central )¥9,900

On Sunday, May 15, a live auction of rare plants will be held at the same venue. A large collection of rare and treasured items will be on sale. If you are looking for rare items, you should participate.

Visitors will also receive an original "Laflamme" planter label tag on a first-come, first-served basis. If you want to get one of these, you'd better visit as soon as possible.

Above all, this is the only time you can just pop into "Laflamme" without a reservation. You can't miss it. You can go for the rare plants, to see the vessels, or just to enjoy the space. Why not take a peek now that the doors to "Laflamme" are open?
