A plant and garden shop in Matsuyama, Ehime, centered on Australian native plants, indoor and outdoor greenery, pots, workshops, landscaping, and maintenance.

Why it surfaced

HINOKI presents itself as more than a retail stop: a hillside space where insects, birds, seasonal change, doughnuts, flowers, and plants share the setting. Its calendar adds a distinctly local layer, with recurring open-terrace and kitchen events alongside practical services such as planting, maintenance, and rentals.
