    Hey, i got a thai constellation from walmart for 40$. Such a pretty plant. But i definitely over paid even though it has very nice fenestration already.

    I would not keep a Persimmon Princess if someone gave ot to me. Ithink it is ugly. And even if I had money to burn, I would not buy a Firebird or especially the V. Pink Micans. The one that, if I had the money, I really love is the V. Burle Marx Mint.

    Keep in mind this video was made almost 3 years ago back when PPP’s were still in the triple digits and people were willing to pay that because they thought they’d be getting the exquisite ones they saw on social. No one was getting what they expected and there was quite a bit of backlash and prices plummeted. These days the plants coming out of TC are perfectly fine for the price.

    I watched this before buying my own mint adansonii- thank you for all of the info! Honestly the appeal for me is the lower price tag and the fact that leaves are less likely to revert or brown. I LOVE the variegation but not buying the same plant over and over because it reverts or goes all white. I'm stoked for my mint and don't give a flying **** about the stigma 🤗❤

    The idea of not disturbing a plant in moss and letting it develop roots into pon is a great one! I have some questions: once the plant has developed a good root system into pon, what do you do with the moss part? Do you stick with the moss as you move it into a normal self-watering pot? Do you remove it? Cover it with pon? Appreciate any guidance! 😊🙏

    This video for me is the ultimate reason why you shouldn't really buy expensive anthuriums at least here in Poland. The video is 10 months old and I can already see how big of a price diffrence so many of this are, here in Poland you can already buy docblock Anthys for 150usd and less and Kunayalense also for 150usd (compered to 2250 from the video). Waiting a year just lets you save up so so much money and that's why I always wait untill this expensive anthuriums hit 100usd threshold before buying. Well executed video tho!

    The amount of money that has been tipped into the bin by “plant collectors” who are new to growing plants, is staggering. If you can’t spot viral issues vs variegation…or, are unsure about potting medium, growing needs and other basic gardening techniques, you should start with hardier and cheaper options until you get more experience. The Monstera albo debacle is just one example of this and there were plenty of predatory sellers who fed this ongoing heartbreak.

    The “Covid spawned plant community” is a very strange crowd. As an avid gardener, who has been growing Hoya and aroids for decades, I have been having a hard time understanding the “new crowd.” To jump from one plant to another, fueled by Instagram posts, is akin to the designer purse craze. One year, everyone wants Coach bags and the next month it’s Michael Kors. If you coveted a certain plant, and then you “cancel” this plant as soon it becomes more widely available and is less sought after…then I’d say, you never liked this plant in the first place. It’s all about a plant’s status within this new crowd of “plant collectors” and not the plant itself. And don’t get me started on these new “naming conventions” that are solely based on commerciality and not on botanical nomenclature. No….there is no P. erubescens ‘Pink Princess’ Galaxy or Marble, botanically, they are all P. erubescens cultivar ‘Pink Princess.’ Some of these names are blatantly made up and have no connection to botanical reality. Just another hint that plant collectors aren’t about the joy of growing. Rant over

    Thank you for the info, these are very informative! I just stumbled upon this video a year late! I find that starting a plant hobby in the US is really expensive.. even for the more common house plants like pothos. Say for something like a manjula or global green we get a lush mature one for around 4-6 dollars, and the giant ones for around 14-16 usd and that’s already expensive here but I heard from my friend in Wisconsin that’s already a bargain. I know tropical plants are way cheaper in southeast asia even the rare ones because it’s endemic here even the one from Florida.. but the mark up in the US plus the changing seasons would really cost a simple hobbyist a fortune in my own opinion :’(
