Hi, I’m Nicholaus Flores, the heart and soul behind Nico’s On First Avenue. Nestled in the vibrant heart of downtown Kennewick, our plant shop is a sanctuary for plant lovers and the curious alike. My love for the green world started as a personal passion and has grown into this thriving space where I share the beauty of nature with our community.
Growing up with a deep affinity for the outdoors, I was captivated by the unique traits of rare and exotic houseplants—their ability to transform spaces and bring life to any environment. In 2023, I turned this passion into Nico’s On First Avenue, aiming to cultivate more than just a plant shop. Here, we connect people with nature, inspire with our plants, and educate on how to nurture them.
At Nico’s, you’ll find a carefully curated selection of houseplants ranging from the blissfully low-maintenance to the fascinatingly rare. Beyond plants, we stock essential care products, unique pottery, and thoughtful gifts. But Nico’s is more than a shop—it’s a vibrant community hub. I’m committed to sharing my knowledge through workshops, detailed care guides, and personalized advice, making plant care accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Plants do more than beautify our spaces; they bring joy, foster calm, and enhance our lives. Every day, we strive to make the experience of plant care a rewarding journey for all—whether you’re adding to your lush collection or just starting out. We’re here to help you find the perfect plant that not only thrives in your space but also brings you happiness.
