Who’s behind #HouseplantHour? It is was founded by me, Jane Perrone (@janeperrone on Twitter) I make a houseplant podcast called On The Ledge and I write about gardening for the likes of the Financial Times and the RHS magazine The Garden. My book Legends of the Leaf is in production right now. More about me here.

In 2022 Lisa Eldred Steinkopf aka The Houseplant Guru (@houseplantguru on Twitter) joined me as a co-host. Lisa is the author of several houseplant books including Bloom, her book about flowering houseplants.

Lisa and I tend to alternate hosting duties for #HouseplantHour, but you may also see the occasional guest host, one of a group of dedicated houseplant growers including Jam (@jamzjungle) a keen gardener from northeast England with a passion for aquatics and rainforest plants, Xander (@Winding_Way) and @BearDublin aka Plants Guy.
