Omg my friend and I also worked at a plant shop and went "dumpster diving" everytime we emptied the trash on Sundays 😂🪴 We would salvage any plants that were tossed but still look like they have life in them and called ourselves the plant ICU 🥰 after we healed up the plants we'd take some to plant shares or even gift them to friends. I love this video so much! The store you work at looks beautiful too 😍

@@soft.jungle ooh I still do this sort of thing today with clearance plants from big box stores! Most of the time these plants end up in clearance because they have too many yellow or brown leaves. I always check to make sure there aren't any pests in the plants or soil. I imagine what the plant would look like if I took off all the dying leaves and if it seems salvageable from that, then I go for it 😁

I want a t-shirt with "crispy death or soggy death". Excellent 👌

I like to 'save' overwatered plants just like that, pop em out of their pot and onto a folded up bath towel. That gets the water out fast, and can give it a dry towel second day if it is still soggy. If the soil/rootball wants to fall apart, you can put the plant and towel into a basin that can hold it. Seems like Lowes' purchases need this pretty often! I enjoy your channel, especially saving plants....

I love your video’s,very informative. Your channel brings me joy to watch the care you give to your beautiful houseplants and you love to share your knowledge,thank you. Rescuing plants has become my new hobby. This week I rescued two plants that were destined for the garbage, an alocasia black velvet and a calathea medallion , both were soggy. I managed to rehabilitate and pass the plants to another plant lover. So cute to see your plant inspector sitting next to you.

Casual yet informative, as always. Thank you for sharing. I did a similar thing with an over watered cebu blue that I received from a big box store...set it in a bightly lit spot without any direct sun but lots of air flow & let it dry out before plopping it back into its original pot.

Doing a nice airy potting mix is good for drainage and air flow. When soil is too dense you are likely to get root rot when is not properly drain at each watering. All my plants i use cactus and succulents mix and add orchard bark and perlite for more of a chunky mix.

Rescuing unwanted Plants... story of my life :D

It's not recent, but I have 3 hoyas (I don't know the specific name) that were the last leaf (or 2) and leaf node from a hoya that my in-laws gave us 15+ years ago. They're part of my 'jungle' including; pothos, aloe veras, pineapple, croton, citrus, and coffee. I also have 5 mango seeds to plant.

Just found your channel I’m so excited to be here omg!!!! 🌿 Also where is your glorious chair from I’m moving soon and have been wanting a green velvety chair so bad ahhh 😍💚✨ your place is such a vibe 🌱

All I document on my IG are plant rescues. My baby is an Alocasia Cuprea I found for 75% off at a local nursery. 1 leaf left on it. She holds 7 now and is so glossy. Basically just waiting on her to begin to increase the leaf size. Currently nursing a Pink Princess back to health and some silver swords too. Rescues are the best IMO!

I have a fern that big! It was a regular size one from Walmart and grew to that size in about 10 months 😱

I love doing that also nurturing the tiniest of cutting / plant into a huge lovely plant 🪴 😊 that's the joy of gardening ! May I ask where you found your Gorgeous 😍 Green Velvet chair ? I need one like this in my life 💯💚

Funny that these are the 2 hardest hoyas I've encountered and I have 100+ hoyas. 😅 I've killed 2 compactas so far. 😰 I find that the wayettii/kentiana IS very susceptible to root rot and dry rot. I wish you're able to save them both. 🥰

Every time I see a big var. kentiana it always look kind of rough with burn/weird brown damage like you showed. It looked sooo much better after you worked on it. Good luck!

Your dog kinda looks like the fern behind him, so lush like a waterfall of fur ☁️

My Hoya wayetii also has those spots I’ve tried treating them with neem oil and later alcohol they don’t seem to be spreading, already had the spots when I opened my order thought it would probably die, making a lot of new leaves currently. I’m monitoring the new leaves for the same spots, fingers crossed it’s just some weird old damage, I thought they were insects at first.

What do you use for your potting mix for these Hoyas? Did you do a follow up video for these rehabbed Hoyas?

Hey, quick question. Where did you get your sweater at or from?

I found a crimson princess at lowes. Roots look super healthy and the plant looks very healthy overall. My concern is...they really watered it like alot before I got there. It wasn't sitting long because I was at the store the day before and it wasn't there. Will it die from them saturating the soil a lot once? Had it a few days but pot is still heavy af obviously. I have experience with a lot of different plants but never owned a hoya (have a lot of healthy happy plants in my home). Hoyas scare me a bit. If anyone can maybe help me that would be much appreciated! Ty! I do have a 8in terracotta pot that is the same size as the plastic nursery pot. Should I transfer it to that?

"Rescued Hoya Salad?" The Hoyas be like: 😲😦😧😨😰😥

What do you use that is very effective for brown spots on Hoyas ..

Are you gonna try watering that weird Hoya with a fungucide or hydrogen peroxide mix? I wonder if that would help
