At a new job, Jenna was put in charge of some beautiful plants that are imbued with deep significance to their co-workers. But despite Jenna's best efforts, the plants aren't doing so hot.

On this episode, Carvell Wallace brings on Maria Failla, host of the Growing Joy podcast and author of Growing Joy: The Plant Lover's Guide to Cultivating Happiness (and Plants). Maria addresses Jenna and other listeners' questions on the How To! hotline, breaking down plant care basics and offering up practical tips to make growing houseplants fun!
