Hi, I’m Ellie.

I’m a massive plant nerd with a house full of children and pets, trying to cram as much greenery into my life as possible. My life is busy and my house is small, so I’m always on the look out for beautiful and unusual new plants that won’t break the bank or throw a tantrum if I forget to water them for a day or two.

If you’re looking for real world advice on how to grow plants then you’ve come to the right place. Expect practical care guides, curated plant lists for every occasion, and recommendations for my favourite plants. I love maximalism so you’ll find plenty of options for flamboyant flowers, tropical foliage, and unusual growth habits.

My posts are all 100% human written and researched using high quality sources like the RHS. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.
