What started as a love for rare plants slowly grew into something I never expected — MeniPlants.
I didn’t start with a big business plan. I started because I genuinely loved plants: finding unusual varieties, learning about them, and sharing that excitement with other plant lovers.
Today, that passion has taken me from my greenhouse in California all the way back to Thailand, working directly with growers and going live from nurseries to connect beautiful plants with collectors thousands of miles away.
This photo captures what my business has become. I’m standing in a nursery in Thailand, surrounded by plants, cameras in front of me, talking to customers back in America — and somehow, this is my job.
Building a business isn’t always easy. There are long days, risks, mistakes, shipping problems, and plenty of learning along the way. But when you truly love what you do, even the hard work feels like it has a purpose.
I’m still learning. Still growing. Still figuring out where this journey will take me.
But maybe that’s the best part.
Do what you love, love what you do — and see where it grows. 🌱💚
