virtual Houseplant Consultations
Stop guessing. Start understanding.
If your plants are declining, refusing to bloom, rotting after repotting, or just not thriving the way they should - the issue isn't bad luck.
It's strategy.
In these private 1:1 Zoom consultations, we'll evaluate your plants in your actual environment and create a clear, science-based plan tailored specifically to your home.
No myths.
No magic tricks.
No "copy-what-someone-online-did" advice.

Read what others are saying about Ohio Tropics houseplant advice... These are just a few happy customers.
"As a Horticulturalist, I am truly inspired and impressed with Raffaele's remarkable plant blog at ohiotropics.com. Ohio Tropics has enriched the plant community through factual information, knowledge, and understanding of plant care." - Marisa Reyes in Wisconsin
"Ohio Tropics changed the way I water all of my plants, and they're happier for it! He's so helpful, positive and fun to follow!" - Bethany in Michigan
"I was lucky enough to come across Ohio Tropics recently after I bought my first houseplant and I have since bought many more. The tips on watering, choosing which pot to use, and how much light the plants want have helped them to thrive in my home, but behind all of that is an obvious passion for plants that he is more than happy to share with others." - Will in London, UK
"Not only do I have a black thumb, but I travel frequently and have a cat. I didn't think it was possible to grow anything in my house. Raffaele helped me to understand that orchids are not intimidating. In fact, they are quite robust and require very little attention. I would highly recommend his advice. If I can get an orchid to re-bloom, you can too!" - Meredith in Ohio.
"RAFFAELE!!! After following your advice, the pilea that I've had since June is finally growing! Horray!!! Thank you again for being you! Can't wait for your book!" - Nora
"Just wanted to say my Chinese Money Plant is doing SO SO SO well since I saw a post about ambient light on your page. I placed my small plant in an eastern facing window for morning sun and it has not stopped putting out new growth for months. There are 3 new leaves every other day, it's nuts. Thanks for educating the plant-loving community!" - Anonymous
"Hi again! It's been a while and wanted to let you know I was gifted a new orchid. The other one did die off. Since I've had this one (5 months) I followed your ebook religiously. Look at the result. And it had a new flower spike growing too! So happy!" - Julie
