About me

Plants gave me purpose

Hi, I’m Alex! I found my love for plants during a dark time in my life, and my growing passion for plants helped to pull me out of that place. Now, I love sharing the joy of houseplants with others whenever I can!

My first plant was my ZZ Plant from Eureka Farms. It gave me confidence that hey, maybe I can keep something alive after all! My first foray into rare plants was my Philodendron McDowell from ShoresFoliage on Etsy. But once I discovered the world of rare Hoyas, I knew I had found my obsession. Hoyas now have my heart!

My favorite gardening buddy and plant assistant is my tuxedo cat, Casper. Aka the love of my life, aka the one thing I love more than plants. He makes life so much better just by being in it.

Recently, I’ve been expanding my plant hobby into a (very) small-scale side hustle. I started out selling plants on Blossm, and I’m currently working on developing an Etsy shop, too. After all, I’ve got to fuel my plant addiction somehow!

I love meeting fellow plantamigos, so don’t be shy! Feel free to reach out anytime. Until then, stay well friends, and happy growing!
