The Green East is an indoor plant shop and botanical design studio operating from a unit inside Banana Block, the converted spinning-mill building on the Newtownards Road in east Belfast. Founded in 2020, it sells houseplants ranging from easy-care greenery to larger architectural specimens, alongside pots, planters and plant-care basics, and runs a styling and maintenance service for homes, offices and restaurants across Northern Ireland. The shop also delivers plants and holds workshops and plant-care sessions on site as part of the wider Banana Block events programme, which includes a monthly market in the same building. Staff offer advice on light levels and watering for specific rooms rather than a generic sales pitch, reflecting the shop's consultancy-led approach to indoor planting.
