The Shop

Casa Hortícola prides itself on its wide range of plant seeds and bulbs, providing a unique visual experience for gardening enthusiasts. Here, customers don’t just find products, but rather a heritage cultivated over time and knowledge passed down from generation to generation. Each visit becomes an enriching and unique experience.
Both the interior and the façade of the shop benefited from the rehabilitation works of the Bolhão Market, maintaining the original aesthetic elegance. Inside the building we find the majestic lamp that illuminates the marble stucco, the washbasin that evokes the ancient function of the space, the tile panels and the numerous seed boxes and colored bulbs.

Shop History

In the south tower of the Bolhão Market, on the corner of Rua Formosa and Rua Sá da Bandeira, once stood the International Sausage Shop, also known as the German Sausage Shop. However, it failed to conquer the inhabitants of Porto at the time and closed a few years after its opening. It was there that, in 1921, António Moreira da Silva founded Casa Hortícola.
