It’s so nice to hear a plant person on KZread gush over “everyday” plants that are “common” or “boring.” It seems like so many people on KZread and IG are so elitist about their plants. Not everyone can afford to spend $250 on a rooted cutting!

THANK YOU! Or they ironically promote the same plants or similar to what's on their expensive website or are giving rave reviews for multiple online stores that also charge triple for a common plants. It's a tough time for so many nowadays I just can't and won't ever buy any tiny 4" plant let alone a cutting for $100 and up. Absolutely NO hate to those that are fortunate enough to do so I just feel some KZreadrs,influencers etc have made plants become a sort of status symbol and all about $$$$ and fake reviews to get free stuff.

I hear you, I don’t ~love~ what’s going in the plant community right now. I’ve been admittedly avoiding spotlighting these overrated, overpriced plants to try not to contribute. I love all plants for what they are and it’s a total shame to see the way the plant market is at the moment. I consider myself lucky to have started collecting 6 years ago - I 100% wouldn’t be able to have the collection I’ve accumulated if it wasn’t for that with the way things are

I like to hope the trends will go away soon and folks will just buy plants they enjoy. I have some harder to find plants and one of my favs is actually my thanksgiving cactus! No point to buy an expensive or hard to care for plant that you don’t feel happy about when you see it. No thanks to plants that bring me stress. 🤷🏼♀️

@Maddie YES! Exactly. I get so annoyed at the many plantTubers and FB groups who turn their noses up at ivy, peace lilies, and pothos like they are somehow beneath having such 'commoners' in their presence. 🙄 I realize there is such a thing as personal preference however time and time again I witness many a gorgeous plant being overlooked and passed over because it’s not an albo this or varigated half-moon that. I think it’s ludicrous that people pay $$$$ to acquire these 'rare' cuttings with like 2-3 leaves only to fry them crispy under grow lights! 🤦🏻♀️ lol I just don’t get it.

$250 on a rooted cutting, girl that's cheap! Some on ebay aren't even rooted!!!!!! 😂 AND you can get a whole plant from regular online store for less 😤
I love that Nick never puts plants down for being commonly available or less showy. He’s really helped me appreciate little traits of veination, textures and growth habits. Congrats on taking the plunge and best of luck in this new phase of your journey Nick!

That's one of the reasons Nick is my favorite plant person on yt. I've tried more well known plant channels but they seem to promote the same plants they're selling for triple the price they're actually worth Another one is always promoting and getting free plants from many different online plant shops it just seems a bit disingenuous. NO hate,to each their own but I just won't spend over $20 on a plant I only own common houseplants but I love them and that's all that matters

I run subtitles because there is often a lot of background noise in my busy home. I am used to the odd spellings and humorous word substitutions when watching plant videos, but this one took the prize. It translated Philodendron Radicans as "Ratty Cans," and I thought your viewers would find that humorous. I love your little Philodendron Vietchii. I have a picture of the big ones next to the Spiritus Sancti at NSE tropicals I used as background on my computer for awhile. Where does one find a tiny one like that? As always I found your content informative and entertaining. Thanks Nick!
I bought my first philodendron Brasil today at Whole Foods- I love it 🥰😢

I adore my philodendron brazil I swear she's absolutely majestic and I would be devastated if she died on me. Super easy care so far I've had it for about six months. Huge full bushy hanging plant..I was shocked to find it where I did and the price was so reasonable! I'm working on propagations of it bc I need plant insurance 🤣

I love that you talk about more common houseplants with the same enthusiasm as the rare ones. A lot of folks on KZread tend to talk down or not even mention common houseplants. As much as I love the expensive exotic plants, I will still say that I probably adore my golden pothos the most.

Greetings from Pico Rivera, California! Finally had time to catch up on your channel and finally subscribe. As for quitting your job to better yourself....... CONGRATS!!! Honey, you have balls bigger than your head!!! 😁 I worked for 12 yrs in a miserable abusive job just for the sake of a steady check. If it had not been for the 2008 recession I know I'd still be there waiting it out to retire. I'm proud that you have a vision of what you want next in your life. GO FOR IT WITH ALL YOU'VE GOT. Make mistakes, learn, GROW! DON'T SETTLE! You don't need me to wish you luck, but I do. You're going to do great. Love the channel, glad I finally subscribed!👍💕
Great video! Have an awesome weekend!
I just love listening too you ad i work my indoor garden
I love anthuriums and their flowers, even the most basic colors. But the Shibori version of the flowers are a show stopper and beautiful!
Good inspiration i just luv ya
Good morning Nick. I love your video’s they are very interesting and informative. I love all my Philodendrons. I really want to get Cebu Blue. But haven’t been able to find them in my area in Sacramento, California yet. I’m still looking. Thank you for you video’s.
Hi Nick! Another fun video! I have the golden pothos, cebu blue pothos and the philo Brasil and love all of them! They are so easy to grow and are so full. I may try staking them to see if the leaves get bigger, but just enjoying them trailing right now. I really like your little white anthurium. I noticed last week that I have a flower coming out on my Chinese Evergreen, and then another one the other day. I'm anxious to see what they look like! As always, I love your enthusiasm, sense of humor and love for your plants. Thank you so much for sharing! Oh, and you can get off topic any time you want to! LOL!

Beautiful .. I’ll be buying a Brazil in the spring. 💚. I love that variation. Lots to think about.
Love my Brasil, the colors are amazing, easy plant to grow🌱
I found the little off topic example of how anthuriums start out super tiny is so helpful! I have a little one that's just starting to grow and it's my very first! So I have no idea what to expect and am delighted to hear they get much larger! Thanks for sharing.

I really love your videos for how knowledgeable you are about plants! It would be really nice and exciting if you quickly showed a little picture of the plants that you mention throughout the video. Just to spread the plant appreciation to even more varieties that might not make it in the video :)
The obscura is one of my wishlist hoyas. I really like how the sunstressed foliage looks ...the blooms are nice too but but they are more of a bonus.

Hoya Rebecca and Sunrise are crosses of the obscura so when you can't find a resonable sized obscura maybe they are a alternative.
I've come to accept I don't have enough light and warmth during winter, for philodendrons and peperomias to survive. Sad, because I love some of these very diverse group of plants. But I do have the staple Epipremnums which can survive, as well as Sansevierias, Dracenas, Bromeliads and surprisingly, the Ctenanthe variety of prayer plants. As well as the Domino variety of spaths, which you actually put me onto. I would love a Cebu Blue to add to my Epipremnum collection, unfortunately, in Australia they cost over $200 for a cutting. Maybe one day. Cheers for these comparisons.
My wish list just got longer!

Thank you for saying Cebu properly! Hahaha! I was born in Cebu and it’s painful to hear the name said so incorrectly by most. By the way, my Cebu Blue pothos is one of my most favorite plants. Mine is so large and lush but was quite hard to find. It is elusive, for sure. I’ve also learned that it is much slower to propagate and a little bit more difficult to grow initially until it actually decides to take off and grow finally. It is absolutely stunning though!
the philodendron radiatum is so cute!! i think i actually prefer it smaller too. definitely a must have but i have find it first! 😩
I have a ton of cebu blue and easily my favorite
Yes I also love peperomia quadrangularis :)
Thank you
Really enjoyed this video. Good information. Don’t know if it’s my viewing device, but, the picture was blurred some.
Anthirathum vetichi. I think I spelled it wrong but so awesome! Thanks for the information!
I have 3 😊 I'm excited for my next rounds
Thanks, Nick for this video. Sometimes I wonder if I should be more adventurous with my plant purchases. I think I’d rather just go for the ones that line the road less traveled...like the plants you highlighted here.
I love plants Hoya and golden photos i already have philodendron brasil
I was just making a wish list for a few that I want, I already have too many according to my husband, so I am sneaking in a few here and there. The Anthurium I would really love to have...thanks!
