In a July 16 news release, officials with M-K-T and Triten Real Estate Partners announced three new stores joining the Heights shopping center—The Plant Project, J. Aimer Jewelry and Lululemon.
The Plant Project
Originally located in the Montrose Collective, the store opened at its new home in late June. According to the release, The Plant Project is considered Texas' first Black woman-owned plant shop. At M-K-T, it will serve as a botanical boutique with an extensive collection of plants, a curated selection of botanicals, sustainable gardening products and thoughtfully designed planters. The shop will also sell vintage items and home decor inspired by nature.
