Hey there! I’m Ashley — plant lover, serial propagator, and full-time chaos gardener.

What started as one aglaonema (that unalived years ago) has turned into a home filled with tropicals, aroids, and the occasional oversized Monstera that I swore I had space for. (I didn’t. But I made it work.)

Let’s be honest: growing houseplants can be a bit of a rollercoaster. Sometimes they thrive, sometimes they drop every leaf in protest, and sometimes you catch yourself whispering apologies to a shriveled spider plant on your windowsill. (Just me?)

This is my little corner of the internet where I’ll share what I’ve learned (and what I’ve un-learned), celebrate the weird joys of variegation, and help you figure out why your philodendron is mad at you. I’m not here to pretend I always get it right — because let’s be real: plants don’t read the care tags either.

A Thing With Plants is where you’ll find care guides, propagation tips, and real talk about plant parent life. I hope it helps you feel a little less alone in the chaos — and maybe inspires you to start an indoor jungle of your own.

Let’s grow together — the messy, magical way. 🌿
