The first Hoya looks to be a Hoya Pubicalyx 'Royal Hawaiian Purple'. Their leaves grow in a very deep, beautiful purple. :) Good find!

Thanks for the info!

So impressed by how many plants you recognize, which makes it more fun to watch you shop.

You are the best plant shopper out there and I've been getting out of breath right along with you, girl. You are such a treat for us and we all love to see the plants with you and admire them from afar. I would have loved that full hindu rope but it would be a nightmare cleaning those leaves if it had a pest.....ugh! But they are so beautiful to look at though. Always wanted one :)) Crazy to see it at a box store especially in the dead of winter. Looking forward seeing what Michigan brings you since I'm in Ohio and we just don't get the plants that others get. But in all fairness, I haven't gone to any of the stores in a couple of months. Thanks for always being the joy of living to us in cold climates :))

Thanks for watching!

As a huge hoya head I love watching these big box store videos! You always find the best finds. I never find good hoya like that in my neck of the woods but its always fun to check lol

I love watching these. I live in South Mississippi and our Lowes and Home Depot don't carry a lot of varied plants. I will live vicariously thru you!

Wonderful!

I love that you're local so I can see what's in stores without having to actually go out. I can sit in my PJs and decide if anything is out that is worthy of getting dressed for. 🤣

My local Lowe’s had quite a bit of plants a couple of days ago but the all looked half dead. We had a hard freeze in Tx and although the plants were inside…I think they needed a good watering. I did find a Hoya at Walmart can’t remember the name to save my life rn. I get to go to one of my favorite greenhouses and specialty shoppes tomorrow with my daughter, she’ll be home mid morning. Your Home Depot had some great succulents, I might go check out ours to see what they’ve got. It’s just amazing to see the amount of plants your big box shop carries…my local ones are about 1/2 if I’m lucky.

the plant at 30.40 is a red ginger bamboo , great plant

also just visited my parents in Charlotte and finally got to Oakdale Nursery, mentioned I was there because of your videos ! btw I met the owner who is moving to my area outside of Charleston!

I just got one of those Hoya Curtisii at home depot the other day!! It had a few yellowing vines, so I was able to get a 50% off markdown 😍🙌🏼

I found one at my Home Depot (south Denver) in the glass water bowl called "Golden Girl" Philodendron. It reminds me of a ring of fire and I can't really find anything about it. It was 19.98 and had 2 plants in it... we'll see how it goes. It's amazing how much more of a selection you have there.

A few days ago, I found a big, beautiful Hoya Burtoniae at WALMART! I couldn't believe it! And she is gorgeous! I probably looked like the biggest guber walking around carry this plant with an ear to ear smile on my face! I wanted to tell everyone IT'S A BURTONIAE!! I'll be going to Home Depot and Lowes on Monday. I hope to score some good stuff. ❤

Woah! It’s January and what a GREAT selection! I’m craving plant shopping now. I want to make a fairy garden with all those beautiful succulents. Thanks Ashley!

Ashley, I found a philodendron tortum a couple weeks ago at my Walmart an hour from Charlotte. It was labeled Trending Tropicals but in a different white pot than usual. It was inside on an endcap in the holiday/garden section. They had other rare plants too!

I am loving the new Urban Jungle planters. They are absolutely gorgeous. I bought a beautiful snake plant today for $24. I think it was well worth it considering the quality of the planter on it's own!

thanks ashley...young at heart ...beauty face...you bright the plants ...every time i watch you tours...money never can make happy ...but a nice blant do

Awesome variety. I live in Columbia, SC and our plant sections are only ever a fraction of this with the same old plants repeatedly. Looks like I’m going to be riding up to Charlotte soon! Thanks for posting addresses! 💜

Incredible right?

I google scan the plants to identify them, right there in the store if they are not labeled. To get the info I need on the plant.

omg, those cactus are rhipsalis cruciforme... great plant to have... they grow long gorgeous leaves, and in bright light, or even direct sunlight (but it's not recommended) it will turn bright red/purple... it also looks like the giant form, there are 6 different ones including a spiralis, they give nice white flowers and purple fruits...

Myself and a lot of my friends around my age, are not technical either. It's hard as we get older. But ask my grandkids and they tell you right away, lol

Thanks for the store tours! I hope that similar abundance shows up in New England soon.

Ashley the pubicalix with the new purple leaves is the same one I have it is a cross between a regular pubicalix and the Hawaiian pubicalix. It's neat the way the new leaves comes up purple. Love your shows watch all the time.

Hi Ashley, Thank you for this great plant shopping tour! I found a large 8 inch basket of Hoya Curtisii at our Arboretum Walmart yesterday and it was just under $20.00. I was stunned . There were two left after I picked up mine. Take care! 👌🪴🥰

Ms, Ashley, wowww!!! (in Ms Ashley's signature woww-tone*** ) 😂 The level of exhilaration and thrill you felt @24:33-24:55 - ABSOLUTELY contagious and I'm soohhh here for it - frontrow -VIP-mashpit !!!! I SERIOUSLY had that slice on rep for like a dozen times! craayyyyy gooooood cause its so delightfully authentic - that it sure can be meme worthy (like in a light-hearted, funny way) ... keep 'em brewin' FUN-nestrations! 😎🪴😉

O my stars… the Hoya Hindu rope plants are on my wishlist. I wish I lived near you they are hard to find n Chicago. I would have brought them all.

I enjoy your channel so much! You are so excited when you give us these shopping tours even though you see many plants! Today, my Lowe's had plants marked down but I will need to go back for their upcoming shipment still looking for a tortum However, HD was a homerun found some super neat succulents and a CF basket of monstera siltepecana too!

I found an anthurium fingers at Lowe's the other day 😍 and awesome ones at Walmart I forgot their name 🤦🤣 but not common at all

Next time you’re at Lowes, check by the registers. The ones by me usually have a display of the new plants from Urban Jungle/Live Trends and they have Hoya cumingiana in ceramic pots with a round trellis for $19. It’s a must have IMHO.

If you are coming to the mitten this weekend…27 & 28 Carlson’s greenhouse in Fenton is releasing all of their rare plants. You should check them out

Oh wow!

Trending Tropical’s are on sale for $14.98 at Lowe’s to the 31st.

I live north of Charlotte and only found one Hoya at the Lowe’s and Home Depot stores near me. It was unlabeled, but I believe it is a Lacunosa Blume. I’ll keep stopping by and hopefully have more good luck.

I love 💕 all the Hoyas you found but I have all of them. Hoya wayettii is now in the big box stores.

i think the Hoya Pubicalyx was Royal Hawaiian pubicalyx with the purple growth and the one urban jungle plant i think is a type of bamboo with the spike leaves

You STILL haven't found your raindrop plant? Wow they really must be hard to find.???????? You really should have grabbed that one you saw. Hopefully you will find it soon.

Do all Hoyas flower? I had one many years ago that had large blooms consisting of little pink florets. Had a strong smell.

does anyone else like to try and guess which ones Ashley is going to pick up based off of how out of breath she gets??

I found two curtsii at Home Depot last summer both water logged and I put them outside bright indirect sun 3 months and they would not grow. I’m betting they had root rot and I returned them. I was so sad. Very few plants I have issues with I even tried to prop them and no go

Do you have an opinion on which is better for houseplants Lowe's or Home Depot. I was curious if one or the other is better for price/ long term health of the plants/ selection?

The plant at 8:04 is an ardisia elliptica. I picked one up recently on a whim without knowing what it was and it died in pon pretty quickly. It requires a lot of water and an acidic substrate. It's also invasive in Florida, so if you live somewhere where it can survive the winter, don't put it outside. I'm not sure why Costa Farms is interested in this plant. It doesn't strike me as easy care, and it grows into a pretty basic shrub IMHO.

HELLO I TRIED EMAILING YOU AND I SENT PICTURES. I AM A NEW PLANT MOM. I JUST SAW A SAD RUBBER PLANT. HOW TO CARE FOR IT. I DID NOT HEAR BACK. BUT YOU ARE A GREAT EDUCATOR ON THE PLANTS INSIDE HONEY !! CHECK YOUR EMAILS WHEN YOU CAN.✌🏾🌻

I am so impressed with Home Depot's plant arrangement. It's a huge contrast to the Lowe's in my neck of the woods. My Lowe's has got racks of plants that are literally in almost complete darkness, so many of the plants are in terrible condition. The store could really use one employee dedicated to the plant section. Like so many stores, though they don't have enough employees and who knows if there's even one employee that knows anything about plants. I get very sad when I get to their plant department. 🪴 😢
