Meet Renee (@botanicobsession505) from Albuquerque, New Mexico, and her collection of 300+ plants! 🌿💚
“My plant journey started from the womb.”
How it started
Plants were always part of her life. Her mom worked at a floral and plant shop, and her grandmother took her on walks in Northern New Mexico to collect native plants for her grandmother’s garden.
Her space
Today, Renee cares for 300+ plants indoors, outdoors, and in her greenhouse.

Her favorite plant
“Philodendron will forever have my heart.” So many shapes, sizes, and beautiful leaves.

Her best plant-care tip
Know when to water. Healthy roots matter.
“The foliage can’t thrive if what we can’t see in the soil isn’t thriving.”
Today
A desert plant momma with a love for tropicals, Renee shares plant-care tips, creative DIY projects, and inspiration for fellow plant lovers. Follow her on Instagram: @botanicobsession505.
