Marcus Holloway

Plant Growing Guide Editor & Practical Horticulture Enthusiast

I'm a plant enthusiast who started with a single struggling pothos in my apartment and has since developed a genuine passion for understanding how plants actually grow—whether in soil, water, or unconventional spaces. Over the past decade, I've experimented with houseplants, hydroponics setups, and backyard gardening across three different climates, accumulating plenty of failures along the way. I'm drawn to making plant science accessible and actionable, especially for people intimidated by gardening jargon or working with limited space. When I'm not tending to my collection of heirloom tomatoes and tropical plants, I'm photographing plant experiments or helping friends troubleshoot their struggling succulents.
