Janet met Jay Jungle on the Southeast Asian island of Borneo at a orchid growing competition. The two were captivated by each other, and soon married. Leaving her home in the rainforests of Borneo, Janet followed Jay to Florida, where she now serves as receptionist and bookkeeper for Jay Jungle Landscaping.

Brian Savage likes to describe himself as a "gardener extraordinaire." He first met the Jungles while on a weekend excursion through the Florida Everglades, armed with only a machete and a pair of toe-nail clippers. "It's amazing what you can do with the right tools," Savage said. He added, "Actually, I just really like to chop things."
