About The Quiet Botanist

In a newly minted storefront in Hudson, NY, The Quiet Botanist is a floral sanctuary and sensorial escape created by Australian creative director Rebecca O’Donnell. Inspired by a desire to slow down and reconnect with nature, the shop is a dreamy blend of apothecary, botanical studio, and boutique, filled with floor-to-ceiling dried florals, heirloom tools, and exquisitely designed gifts. Every detail—from the stained glass windows and wooden paneling to the lingering scent of everlasting wildflowers—invites visitors into a slower, more mindful experience. It's a place to pause, explore, and be surrounded by beauty.

Signature offerings include ethereal dried floral arrangements, wildflower wreaths that last for years, and chocolate bars pressed with edible petals, designed and illustrated by Rebecca herself. The shop also carries natural apothecary goods, Niwaki garden tools, artisan pottery, and thoughtfully sourced candles and incense. With many blooms grown locally by nearby farms or on Rebecca’s own land along the Hudson River, The Quiet Botanist is as rooted in sustainability as it is in artistry. Whether browsing gardening books or selecting a sage bundle, visitors are encouraged to savor the moment—embodying Rebecca’s ethos of “slow retail” and the quiet joy of being among flowers.
