About Us

Welcome To The Wilderness!

Hi there! We’re Greg And Taylor, and if you’re are looking for the breakfast bar, you’ll have to look under a few propagation trays, pots and a very dramatic Monstera.

How It All Started

We didn’t exactly have a ‘green thumb’—it was more of a botanical curse. Our home wasn’t always an oasis; it all started with a ‘rescue’ succulent that looked like it had given up on life. We decided to see if we could keep it alive as a team, mostly just to prove the local garden center wrong. Fast forward a few years, and the plants have officially accepted us as their humble servants.

Somewhere between the first new leaf and the fiftieth pot, we realized we weren’t just growing a collection; we were growing a home.

Why “Our House Is A Jungle”?

This blog is our digital field journal. We created this space to log our wins (like finally flowering a Christmas Cactus) and our “learning opportunities” (RIP to the Orchid, Poinsettia and Chrysanthemum of 2025).

Whether we’re battling thrips and spider mites, master-minding a new shelving unit, or debating which plant gets the best sunlight in the living room, we’re doing it together. We believe that:

  • Plants are for everyone: You don’t need to be an expert to start.
  • Failure is growth: Every yellow leaf is a lesson.
  • Home should be wild: A little indoor greenery makes life a lot more vibrant.

Join the Expedition

We’re so glad you’re here to wander through the vines with us. Whether you’re a seasoned “plant parent” or you just bought your very first Pothos, we hope our stories, tips, and occasional mishaps inspire you to bring a little more of the outside in.

Let’s get growing!
