About Plantasmic

Rooted in passion. Grown with love.

Plantasmic started as one woman’s therapy — and became a shared dream between two people who love plants, peace and people.

Our Story

 CULTIVATING BEAUTY, ONE LEAF AT A TIME 🌿 Before there was a greenhouse, there was just a garage, a few plants, and a lot of curiosity. Leena worked as an IT analyst, and her husband, Marquise, ran a mechanic shop called Monkey Mug Performance. When plants brought calm and joy during difficult times, Marquise applied his business and logistics know-how to help share that joy with others. Together, they built a thriving plant business right from their Houston home. What started as a side hustle became a full-fledged operation with a custom-built greenhouse, an online shop, and a growing community of plant lovers nationwide.

What We Believe

 BEYOND PLANTS, INTO PASSION 🌿 Plants do more than beautify a space — they can heal hearts, calm minds, and connect people. We relate deeply to anyone navigating anxiety, depression, physical illness, or just feeling a bit out of place. Plants helped us find our rhythm; we hope they do the same for you.

Meet Our Dedicated Team

Plantasmic is built by a small but mighty team that shares one big passion: bringing beautiful plants and peaceful green spaces into people’s lives. At the heart of it all are our owners, Leena and Marquise, who turned a love of plants into a thriving business and a growing community. They oversee everything from sourcing rare specimens to designing the collector experience that makes Plantasmic unique. Supporting them are our dedicated fulfillment team members, the hands and hearts behind every package that leaves our greenhouse. They carefully inspect, prepare, and pack each plant with the same love and attention we’d give our own collections — making sure your new plants arrive happy, healthy, and ready to thrive in their new home. Together, we’re more than just a plant shop — we’re a small team committed to spreading joy, calm, and connection, one plant at a time.
