The Houseplant Atlas
A field guide to 114 houseplants and their wild homes
Every houseplant was a wild plant first. A field guide to 114 of them, each sculpted in clay, each pot from its homeland: where each comes from, how to keep it alive, and what it's worth.
Every plant on my windowsill is secretly a piece of somewhere wild, a Mexican cliff, an East African scrubland, an Ecuadorian cloud forest. I realized I had no idea where any of mine were actually from, and every time one looked sad I'd end up lost in ten contradictory, half-paywalled care guides.
So I built the thing I wanted: a field guide to 114 houseplants showing where each one really grows in the wild, how to keep it alive, what it costs, and the honest version of the "plants purify your air" myth (spoiler: you'd need ~680 to match opening a window).
Each plant is illustrated as a little clay sculpture in a pot from its homeland, and you can search the whole thing with ⌘K.
Would genuinely love your feedback, and I'm curious: what's a plant you own whose wild origin surprised you?
