Every plant has a story—and in this episode, we’re sharing ours. From the clearance rack rescues to the gifted cuttings that grew into something special, we’re telling the origin stories of the plants that fill our homes and hearts.Some were impulse buys. Some came with heartbreak or healing. Others just appeared in our lives at the exact right moment. And somehow, they all tell a little piece of our own stories, too.Come sit with us for a cozy, reflective chat on the roots (literally and emotionally) of our favorite leafy companions.

EP98-10 Thing We Wish We Knew Starting Out
Let’s be real—nobody warned us how fast this hobby can spiral. One minute you're picking up a pothos at the grocery store, the next you’re knee-deep in rare plant auctions and budgeting for grow lights.
In this episode, we're talking about the 10 things we wish we knew before we started our plant journeys—beyond the basic care tips. From the hidden costs of plant care and the pressure of social media trends, to the way your collection can quietly take over your home (and your wallet), we're breaking down the real-life lessons we’ve learned along the way.
This one’s for anyone who’s ever said, “I’m just getting one plant.”

EP96-Shaming Our Plants
That’s right — we spend this entire episode shaming our plants. We air the grievances, call out the divas, and roast the green freeloader who’s been sitting in the same pot for three years doing absolutely nothing. No one is safe. But beneath the drama, there’s a real conversation about expectations, projection, and what it means to care for something that doesn’t always give back the way we want. Come for the petty plant rants, stay for the subtle self-reflection.
