Meet the humans behind the Martians.

Welcome to Rooted Martians.

David- a Marketing professional with over 15 years experience in digital marketing and social media branding & Meagan- a Customer Service professional with a knack for Business development, we are a small family business that started collecting plants as a hobby in 2020 (at the start of the COVID pandemic). We came to the quick realization that this hobby took more care, education and knowledge to keep up. The hardest part was finding a seller who wouldn't overcharge for their plants and also gave great customer service. We received amazingly packaged plants and plants that just didn't hold up entirely. The sellers would give little to no education on how to acclimate or rehab said plants and several perished. As we live, we learn.

We are here specifically to make your plant buying experience one to remember. We not only provide the care tips and education towards caring for the Rooted Martian that you purchased, but we are here to walk with you every step of the way in your journey. Each Rooted Martian purchase comes with a complimentary digital consultation, where you can sit with our team to discuss concerns, answer all of your questions or just come hang out with us!

Upon first contact, we Martians were... underwhelmed.

Humans, lost in their digital matrix, had forgotten the sacred code: reverence for Mother Nature. But not all hope is lost. Some Earthlings still carry the ancient frequency; those who nurture green life, who whisper to roots, and who treat soil as sacred stardust.

At Rooted Martians, we believe plants are portals; living connections to a forgotten truth. To care for a plant is to care for life itself. It's not just watering leaves; it's reviving a relationship with the cosmos. We've seen it: those who grow, glow.

We’re here to help Earthlings, young and old, break free from the artificial construct and reconnect with the natural order. This journey starts in childhood, when curiosity blooms and magic still lives in dirt-covered hands. We’re calling all stargazers, soil lovers, and seekers of truth: it’s time to get back to your roots.

Let Mother Nature lead… like she always has.

Each plant we offer carries a story rooted in nature, curiosity, and care. Hand-selected to bring life, wonder, and a touch of the extraordinary into your space.

FAQ

All your questions answered at light speed.

Welcome to the Rooted Martians Help Zone, where Earth plants meet cosmic vibes. Whether you’re a human or an intergalactic being, here are answers to the most common questions from our galactic plant community.

Plant Care

Every plant thrives in different mediums. Whether it's an alocasia that craves more of a chunky pon mix or a philodendron that likes a more airy chunk mix, you can rest assured that all of our plants sit in soilless mix to keep unwanted pests away. Soil recommendations can be found in the Medium tab of your plant.

Each of our Rooted Martians is kept and cared for in an at home nursery. We use non toxic pest control and the humidity remains 65%-80% with 3000k grow lights at 12hr intervals. We use distilled water when filling our humidifiers and purified water only, when feeding our Martians. We micro fertilize our Martians every 2 weeks. For more info, please refer to your plants care & maintenance tab.

Congratulations on a successful landing of your Rooted Martian! Although we're sure you’re excited, please patiently and carefully remove your Rooted Martian from its packaging. If it is in a pot, we suggest allowing it to acclimate to your atmosphere for up to 2 weeks in its original soil. If the soil is dry, lightly water & if still damp, allow the soil to dry before watering again. If your Martian was delivered in Moss or with an acclimation kit, please refer to the invoice emailed with further instruction.

Maybe a little. Its normal for plants to be slightly stressed post travel. Sometimes you may even have some fallen leaves, which just means its so ready to thrive in your new atmosphere. Give it a few days in a calm humid landing zone, away from direct light. Avoid repotting immediately, it needs to acclimate first.
