About us

Leafy Newbies Plant Circle is for anyone who has ever killed a houseplant and wants to try again, or who is just starting out and wants to learn the basics without feeling overwhelmed. We’re a laid-back group that meets in casual settings to talk about easy-care plants, troubleshoot problems, and share small victories like a new leaf or a successful repotting. No prior experience needed, and there’s no such thing as a silly question here.

At our meetups, we usually start with a short show-and-tell where people can bring a plant they’re worried about or one they’re proud of, and we’ll chat about light, watering, soil, and common pests in plain language. Then we might do a hands-on activity like potting up a cutting or checking roots, depending on what the group needs. It’s very informal, and you’re welcome to just listen if that feels better.

We keep things small and friendly so everyone gets a chance to ask questions. Whether you have one sad succulent on a windowsill or a growing collection of pothos, you’ll find people here who are learning right alongside you. Come along to a meetup, bring your curiosity, and leave with a few practical tips and maybe a new plant friend.
