Luna Mission

DESIGN PLANT GROW

Luna Botanicals utilizes the principles of biophilic design to connect people and nature in meaningful ways. Biophilia is human’s innate love of the natural world. Our need for connection with nature is deeply rooted within our DNA, and intrinsically shared by all humankind.

We combine the science of horticulture and the art of design to produce distinctly biophilic spaces. We choose plants that will thrive long-term, and serve as a daily connection to nature for those who inhabit our spaces.

With artwork and plants spanning from New York to California, through Texas and New Orleans, the Lunas utilize their unique skillset to create instant-impact, bold designs that garner attention and connect people with nature.

The Lunas

Founders of Luna Botanicals

Stephen and Jeanne Luna are a married couple creating, designing and enjoying life in New Orleans.  

The couples' genuine and deep love for New Orleans drives much of the inspiration of the Luna Botanicals art and plant collection, as well as the wild and dramatic Luna Landmarks populating New Orleans and beyond.

With a shared business and personal mantra rooted in nature, their wedding in the Redwood Forest was featured in Southern Bride Magazine. Both named to Gambit New Orleans’ 40 under 40 list in 2018, the duo behind Luna Botanicals is inspired to grow a greener future.

We believe bringing nature into people’s lives is a way to foster peace and happiness on an individual and community level.”
