On the Being Home With Hunker podcast host @laurie.gunning.grossman chats with plant enthusiast and plant consultant Stephanie Horton, otherwise knowns as Botanical Black Girl.Stephanie makes caring for houseplants feel so effortless. As she says, she loves plants because they’re “chill.” She has such a relaxed approach to caring for greenery. In this conversation, Stephanie talks about how she is moving away from being a plant collector, and instead calls herself a plant enthusiast. Although, many people refer to her as a plant consultant—she helps others discover how they can get their plants to thrive and stay alive. Here she shares how it’s important to know where your indoor plants originate from before you bring them into your home; how to deal with negative self-talk around your ability to care for plants; and the best plants to have in the kitchen, the bathroom, and the bedroom.   We also talk about which plants are on her bucket list; greenery that work best in modern decor, or which ones to add when you want a lush feeling in your home; and she shares ideas on propagation — it’s something she loves doing with her plants. If you’re feeling timid about indoor plant care or how to get started, Stephanie’s helpful advice that will make it all feel more manageable to you. By the end of this conversation, you’ll be ready to add some new plants to your space! LEARN MORE ABOUT STEPHANIE HORTONWebsite: BotanicalBlackGirl.comInstagram: @botanicalblackgirlArticle on Hunker: Botanical Black Girl: Know Your Plant’s Origin Before You Bring It Home READ MORE ABOUT THE PLANTS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODEThese Are the Plants Suggested by Botanical Black Girl OTHER EPISODES YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKEBeing Home With the Plant Kween (Christopher Griffin)Being Home With a Plant Stylist (Hilton Carter)Surprising and Delightfully Odd Ways to Keep Houseplants AliveBeing Home With a Color-Loving Interior Designer (Rachel Moriarty)  CONNECT WITH ME, LAURIE GUNNING GROSSMANHave questions?
