Liana
Hello fellow Houseplant Addicts! My name is Liana, and I am a married momma of 3. I live in the beautiful New England area of the U.S in the state of CT. I was not always into houseplants as much as I am today, I was more of an avid outdoor gardener and took pride in my rose and peony bushes and our veggie gardens.
I started collecting houseplants a little over 5 years ago when my health was in a decline. It gave me something to look forward to take care of while my kids were in school during the day. Houseplants provided so much healing and education for me while I was trying to get through each day. My favorites are Hoyas and Sansevierias! Recently I began exploring more tropical varieties such as birds of paradise, monsteras and rhaphidophoras.
I joined Houseplant Addicts 2 years ago and it has been one of my favorite and informative houseplant groups I have ever been apart of. I began volunteering my time as a moderator and now an admin for over a year! Time flies when you’re having fun! I love being apart of a group with like minded individuals who’s curiosity to always learn and take care of beautiful living things is more of passion than a hobby.
Aside from houseplants, I have a fascination with different cultures, traditions and their practices. There is so much beauty through culture that I would love to learn about. I collect books on artists throughout our history (I love Dali!), have a love for home decor, cooking, homesteading, blogging, health, beauty (body modifications included) and up-cycling old furniture.
During my ‘free time’ (a rarity), I love naps, Netflix, board games with my kiddos and hanging with my chickens (who can provide hours of entertainment!) I recently got into woodworking, but I am not that great at it yet!
Stephanie
Hi! My name is Stephanie and I am single mom to a teen with Autism. Besides plants, I enjoy volunteering, fitness, health, wellness, essential oils, blogging, beauty, and watching my favorite shows (The Walking Dead, Grey’s Anatomy, Manifest, 911, This is Us, Chicago Fire, The Masked Singer, and so many more. I really could go on and on, but you get the gist).
I remember receiving my first plant. A former teacher gifted me a mini african violet. At the time, I had no idea what it was nor did I know how to care for it. My second plant, was given to me by a friend. She gave me one of her spider plant babies. After that, I knew I was hooked. Over the years, I’ve had plants all over our home.
I started Houseplant Addicts because I wanted to know I wasn’t the only one out there. The only one “addicted” to houseplants. I’ve always admired plants you see in the background of movies and shows. When we went to the store, I always had to stop by the garden center, “just to look and see what they have.”
