Meet Our Founder
What started as a houseplant obsession turned me into the garden lady with an endless supply of tomatoes and a habit of talking about plants every chance I get.
When I started my garden, I was hooked. How do I get more pollinators? What bug is this? Why is this plant dying? Is it me, or is it just Texas?
Every Texas gardener asks these questions. It wasn’t until I discovered native plants that everything finally clicked for me.
Now, I'm here to share what I've learned, raise awareness about native plants, and create a space where everyone can easily access Texas native plants.
