FAVORITE GREEN SPACE IN NYC

I have a few "rescue" plants that I've adopted from my work over the years. My proudest moments are always when I take home a plant that's been neglected and give it the chance to reestablish itself and thrive. Specifically, I have one Bird of Paradise from a previous job that I took home after it was deemed too short and unsightly to go to a client. Less than a year later and it has pushed out so much new growth and stands taller than me!

FAVORITE PLANTS

Indoor tropicals (especially Philodendrons) have my heart, so out of my personal plants it's a tie between my Philodendron Narrow Escape and Philodendron Florida Green. That being said, I'm a total sucker for any unusual Sansevieria variety as well - my Sansevieria Fernwood brings me a ton of joy with its funky stalks!

As a Greenpoint local, I've got to say McGolrick Park!
