How I Launched my Biggest Plant Sale...Yet!
Restock my small business plant shop with me! Come along for a full day of plant chores from plant care to photo shoots, actual plant sales & also some bookkeeping. I sell common and rare houseplants, propagated from my own huge houseplant collection. It's the largest plant drop I have ever done and here is how I went about to make it a successful one on top!
Enjoy ♥

Thank you once again for clicking on my video out of all the videos 💚. What's your verdict, did you enjoy this video and are you selling plants/cuttings yourself?
Dieses Gefühl von pure joy, wenn ein neues Video kommt. 🥰
I love it! You help me to see that I really can fit more plants in my house. I have plenty if room, just need more plants.
Nice video. If I was local, I’d totally get an Albo and Frydek from you!
This is very interesting thank you.
Liebs, wie transparent du immer bist. ❤

Yaaaaay new video! Honestly all the plants I got from you are thriving! Especially the Ph. micans, Peperomia verticillata and Begonia. All getting new leaves like crazy. Can’t wait for the next purge and sale 👀
I'm planning to sell plants maybe in the future and I think, this is going to be a big help on knowing What to do's when it comes to selling. I love this content 😊❤️.
Your videos are my stress Buster's ❤

This was SO SATISFYING! And you're definitely inspiring me to start selling off little propagations. I suppose I first have to see how my local plant people are, and if they're interested...

Definetly go for it. It can't hurg to try, you can test the waters with a few propagations first. If they sell l, you're off to the races 😉 wishing you best of luck in your endeavors 💚
Really liked this video Kristina :) really happy for you and everyone who buys from you! Neat to see all the behind the scenes work....loving your albo cuttings in the vase...one would be mine if I didn't live oceans away :) long hugs....................♡tina
Hello, I’m new to your channel, and love your videos❤ also, I don’t ever meet many Kristina’s who spell their name with a K like mine and yours, so I thought that was cool 😎

Hahahaa I'm not considering you to be a casual though 😉 I also cut out the part where I say that in order to make rare plant sales work you need to have at least a few crazy plant people in your area 😅
The tortum is beautiful, why not propagate and keep main part of the plant and sell propagation or keep a piece.
@LeafyLuster
11 ай бұрын
Hi Madeline, good point, I sometimes do that with Plants where I want to keep a piece to myself. With the tortum I would always have the same problem of it taking to much space, so I gave it away completely. 💚😁 Have a great day
I have plants i am propagating and some that is, i think, ready to sell but i still dont know how to go about that first step. I have a store that is interested in selling them, but I have to make them retail shop ready..
@LeafyLuster

If you're just starting out, getting them retail shop ready seems a bit daunting to me. I have no idea what that entails though. Selling on Facebook marketplace or similar online marketplaces seems easier and quicker to me.
It looks cosy and nice at your place with all your plants. Can I ask what growlight you use in your shells?

Thank you 🥰 i have old grow lights from the IKEA Växxer hydroponic system in there. I just repurposed them and screwed them to the top of the shelves. They are quite strong though & not dimmable.
Kristina, I have scoured the interwebs, exhausted every link possible, and I cannot find frames like the ones you have used to hold your pressed leaves. Please, I am dying to know where you acquired your double-glass frames. I have so many leaves pressed in my college textbooks patiently waiting for comfortable real estate on my wall. *Insert photo of the uncomfortable old man smile*

Hi, the frames are just simple wood frames ...unfortunately not double glass frames. It's these ones: from bubola und naibo www.bauhaus.info/holz-bilderrahmen/bilderrahmen-tulipa-6340/p/26165905?cid=SSAGoo8843487724_154093389036&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAyeWrBhDDARIsAGP1mWSwVHGIYCUxMuxxlC6cDrIHXL8NL-dFDFsXFl2XCGQgdybdcJJcvAEaAvFYEALw_wcB
Great video! I’d be interested to know after taxes and supplies what the actual $ is? Or did you already do those deductions for the number you gave? I’d never ask a question like this or anything about $ but you did first. Disregard if you aren’t comfortable disclosing. Love your videos!

I loved it! But I’m wondering - what do you do with the plants that don’t sell? Try again the next week? Wait until they’re lots bigger? I’m curious.

Pretty much all of the above. Some sit in the shop longer than others. If they grow too tall I either propagate or list them again. Sometimes I combine them with other cuttings and make a bigger pot out of it. If all else fails I can still list them for free 😁
You are never going to believe this, because most people don't, I just had my first visit from pests in a little over 2 years of having plants. I noticed a few mealy bugs on a Hoya I brought home almost 3 months ago. I'm definitely a helicopter plant parent so I know they haven't been here the entire time. Where do they come from? Is there a chance a newer plant brought them in and I just haven't noticed?? Wouldn't it be close to the plant that I found them on? 😳 Hopefully I got them all. Can they be in the soil too? Also I noticed the Hoya kinda stop it's growth spurt. Is that normal? When will it start to grow again? Sorry so many questions, this is definitely new to me and I'm a little freaked out.

Hi, I had the same situation. I saw for the first time a mealy on my plants. It was on a hoya cutting I bought 2 months and a half ago. I have not bought any new plants. I was so intrigued about how it appeared in my house so I researched a lot and found out mealy eggs are tiny and can take 2 to 3 months to hatch. So probably the cutting came with an egg and I didn't noticed it despite my close inspection. I have now bought an magnifying glass to inspect closely any new plant and I'm showering any new plant with soap + rubbing alcohol when bringing them home. I started to treat my new plants as if all of them have pests despite I can see them or not 😊

Where do i go to buy
How do you know what price to set your plants at?
@LeafyLuster
10 ай бұрын
The easiest way is to just check on Google or eBay what other shops charge for similar plants. I also account for the size, overall health, and quantity of the plants as well as availability/ rarity). In the end, you can charge whatever you see fit. I no one buys the plants you'll know to make them cheaper next time 😅. Of course, it is best to know your expenses upfront, so you can cover your costs and calculate a profit on top of that.
