PLANT SHOPPING! Lowe's vs Armstrong Garden Centers 🌿 I got new plants! 😄

Ойын-сауық

Come plant shopping with me at Armstrong Garden Centers and a big box store Lowe's! 💜 Comparing prices on some of the houseplants and generally seeing what's in stock. Found some rare plants too! I was mainly running errands with my husband and wasn't intending on buying plants today (especially since I have a whole spider mite situation going on at home) but I got a few for a great price. Plant shopping is always so fun!! 🥰

    Triangularus don't like to be moved around. Don't panic if they drop some. Good light but gradually introduce it to good light. If it gets lots of light and you miss watering, it will give up leaves. If you over water when it doesn't get alot of light the leaves brown and crisp up. Your hubby is a keeper 😊

    It’s a bummer that local plant nurseries are so expensive. I want to support local business, but the nurseries in my area cost 2 to 3 times what chain stores cost. And I haven’t found them to be any more healthy. I found a Philodendron Xanadu that size for $13 at Trader Joe’s and the one you showed was $60.

    Omg how do you keep heart leaf ferns alive?! Lol I have a glass bowl thing with 2 in it and a few other types of ferns. The blue star, fish tail and birds nest are all doing fine but the heart leaf ferns are crispy! I don’t let the soil dry out and it’s not in direct sunlight but gets bright light. They’re so pretty, how do you take care of yours? Lol

    That Ficus tree is beautiful i love having tall tree plants in the home really makes a statement. But it is expensive if was €100 i take it. Begonia they do like there soil moist and like’s humidity so I usually stay away from buying those. Also attracts fungus gnats plants in those living conditions. The one you picked is cute and nice leaf shapes. I don’t go for colourful plants either that one is nice and subtle. I love Sansevieria’s i totally would have picked that one up gorgeous variegations. I have given up on Alocasia and Peperomia just cannot keep them happy. Ficus are such easy care i love the Tineke and Burgundy one. They need there sun to keep there variegations and leaf size. That ivy is so beautiful and variegations too kinda succulent looking totally would have picked that up too. I am the same kinda take a long time deciding which plant to get when there is a bunch of them to see which one is the nicest. You have great plant finds where you live. I think since i started watching your channel your hair has always been purple. Love your Cartier jewellery i am a silver jewellery girl. I love the bracelets always wanted a matching one with my husband but too expensive. Even for one. I hate when they spray the plants and glue those fake flowers. I love succulents but do need alot of sun to thrive. Cacti too. Such a good idea have the handle so don’t get hurt we don’t have them displayed like that here. I love my ZZ Raven and the compact zenzi one too.

    Heart leaf ferns are challenge to keep alive. I can only keep them in a terrarium and I have 60 to 70% humidity. Even in a terrarium they need to be kept cool, at least, that is my experience, otherwise they rot.
