I moved houses and was forced to give up my 60+ plants. After almost 2 years, I am back. I have started with 3 plants and excited to start watching plant RUclips again
After almost 5yrs of collecting, I finally have my first bloom on a Hoya...so I'm loving Hoya Sunrise, right now. My other favorite are ALL of my prayer plants. The only true low light house plant for me that constantly push new growth.
I've been growing and collecting succulents and trops for over 40 yrs. (I'm getting old) lol. Your crassula ovata is corking prob bc you keep it on the much drier side. The leaves pointing downward says give it more light and water a few days after the soil totally dried (soak and dry method) more light=more water leaves point upward and no corking if you don't have it so dry. I've been watching you for a long time and you're very cute. ❤❤❤ I have a coral fire aloe that I acclimated to full all day sun planted in the ground but during winter I pot it and bring it inside bc I live in 6b and it's the brightest shade of coral red and is about to bloom with a spike in full buds!!! ❤❤❤ I am lucky to have large south facing windows in the front of my house on both floors so it's fine to put it in the window for the winter 😊
Those were definitely some interesting choices. I am solely addicted to Hoya for the lad 6 years. I only care about them. I have over 70 different varieties in my collection right now and growing!! 💚💚💚
Your grandma's hoya is beautiful. I've really downsized this last year from about 200 plants to about 50. It's hard to pick a favorite. I've come to appreciate the beauty in all the ones I have left. Trailing hoyas are my most recent love now though
I LOVE how very emotional you were when talking about your grandma's plant 🥰 I also loved her so much, she was literally my second mother in a way, so I totally feel you with the emotional connection you feel to her plant!
@@HarliG oh my god. I meant that I also loved MY grandma😰😰😰😰😭😭 Instead of "mine" I used "her". Im soooo incredibly sorry😅 Im german and I accidentally mixed up the vocabulary.
My favorite type of plant right now is African Violets. They aren’t talked about a lot for some reason… maybe because they are a little more challenging. But I think they’re so lovely and sweet. I just want a whole room full of them! 💜
Its so hard to pick favorites! I have 3 plants that were gifted to me that I really admire. I have a Stromanthe Triostar that my grandma divided off of hers and a Purple Shamrock that my grandma also propagated and then I have a gorgeously long Neon Pothos my great grandma gifted me!! I agree theres something a little extra special to appreciate about those because of who I got them from.❤ I think of both my grandmas everytime I water and care for them. I could never get rid of them!
My mom has had a money tree for as long as I can remember, and if I could I would show y’all how goofy it is 😂 this thing is just a long stick with 3 leaves at the very top and she has no clue why, I’m trying to help her with getting it to be fuller, but I loved this video! I love watching people talk about their favorite plants ❤️
Great picks! I always change my favorites but I always come back to a few core loves like Albuca Spiralis, Calathea Musaica, and any and all Aglaonemas!
I’m a huge fan of plants that have caudex’s too, one of my favs is my desert Rose, Adenium obesum , it drops all its leaves in winter and it’s just a funky looking bulbous dead plant with green sticks poking up, so cool
My most favorite plant right now is my Hoya polyneura albomarginata. It's a gorgeous trailing plant that is so whimsical looking! I also love all my aglaonemas!
Hello! I like how you realized something more about yourself in the end. I too enjoy succulents. Rhipsalis especially make me happy. They are all tried and true. Get huge. Very vocal & interactive. I have mostly very bright & hot southern facing windows my home. I will always own a spider plant too. There are a few types. They are too fun to propagate & go away to new plant friends. They tell you when they need anything. When they get oodles of babies I could just squeal.
This was a fun video! I think your dancing bones cactus is my favorite. Some of my faves are the different kinds of orchid cacti that my neighbor randomly gifted me. They grow steadily in medium bright light, but completely explode outside in the spring/summer. They also bloom once mature and even though they are technically cacti, their spikes are very soft. You would have to brush them at a really weird angle to get poked. I have 2 kids and 2 dogs also and they’ve never hurt themselves.
Harli, I love watching your videos! They really make me feel excited to care for my own plant babies. I’ve been very curious on how you learned to identify different types of plants. Also, thank you for always being you and making my day a little brighter!
I love videos like this! Ones that say your favorite or ones you wouldn’t buy again lol My favorites is one I have a mixed pot of Hoya Chelsey, Crinkle 8, varnish and princess! Also, scindapsus exotica, Hoya kroniona super silver and Hoya crimson queen! I have a lot at the moment. Lol
That lipstick plant is so cool! I have the black pagoda which has cool flowers but the really blend into the plant.i have so many favorites. I think my Hoyas are all at the top of my list, and I have a ton of sanseveria that are way up there too. I have a xerocisios danguii that is really close to the top of my list. It has grown so much and I saw one at the Cleveland Botanical Garden when visiting my friend and it was scrambling all over the place and the paddles were at least 4 times the size on mine!!!
Hi Harli,love all of the plants you selected,specially the last one, ‘Dancing Bone Cactus’ I also love how the Jade plant gets better as it ages! I recommend you look up some Rhipsalis cacti, specially the Mistletoe Cactus and Coral Cactus, and so many others,they are the coolest trailing plants,I find them very easy to care for as well. Thank you for a great video. ❤Natalie 🪴
Your energy is infectious!! I've been watching you for years(and we played among us at some point) and I'll never stop supporting you!! Thanks for the lovely video per usual.
I love this video! Looks like you do like succulents and plants who tell you how they're doing in general. I'd never heard of the Aeschynanthus Thai Pink before! She's a beauty! I'm a new subscriber to your channel. I had seen a video or two before, but then lost you. I'm glad I found you again! I also love my Jade and I could never give up either of my braided Money Trees. I tend to use the common names for plants; hope you don't mind! Like you, I enjoy thick trunks and sculptural shapes. I got a Desert Rose in the spring and, after the flowers faded, lopped off half the plant so she could grow her caudex and branch out a bit. I've got my Ponytail Palm outside with her - this is the second summer for that one. I'm very attached! I just realized how much I care about my two oldest snake plants. I got them through the mail and they were bent and broken on arrival. I supported the bent leaves and propagated the broken ones in water - most of them rooted and are scattered about my house. I also feel in love with a Monstera Albo on Etsy - with that specific plant ... It was packaged well but -literally- steaming when I opened the silver bubble wrap that was protecting her. She looked fine at first, but by morning was dried to a crisp. I'm waiting until the temps moderate to get the replacement - I think she cooked in that packaging. I just loved the watercolor patterns on her leaves... I wasn't in the market for such a pricey plant, but then I saw her! The seller will let me choose her replacement, but I can't imagine finding one I love so much, you know? So, other than that devastating loss, I'd say the plants I'm most attached to are those I've put a lot of energy into - whether by pruning, supporting, emergency repotting on arrival... The ones I either fell in love with at first glance or who needed saving - or both in the case of the Ponytail! She arrived battered and limp with a soft caudex... She's about 2 feet tall now with a beautifully thick caudex and abundant curly hair. 😊 I love all the plants under my roof but with some I do have a deeper connection. Thank you for sharing yours!
I'm with you on the love of silver plants. My favs + the ones that have thrived the best in my care are the cebu blue pothos, scindapsus trubeii moonlight and pepperomia frost!
I love your choices, and I love the sentimental side also. I have some of my own plants I hope never die because they came from loved ones. Also your biceps are rippin’ girl 💪😂
Hi Harli, your first two plants are pretty, I don't have either of them but love that first one that your sweet mom gave you those cuttings. the Begonia maculata "Wightii" is so pretty and I love the poka dotts on the leaves and am still looking to get one when I find it, I do love begonias, and so sweet of you grandma to give that to you, I have plants that were my mom's that I got after she passed away, those give me sweet memories of her. Oh and I really love your variegated Pachira aquatica, I just have the regular green one. I also have two jade plants and 10 other succulents in my bedroom in my south facing window and are doing just fine. Oh and I also have a Cebu blue pothos in a hanging pot that is huge and doing great, I have trimmed her and had propagations that I gave to my daughter and a couple of friends. I also love that bluish color it has. Oh yours is so gorgeous and really long. Oh gosh that Hatiora salicornioides I have one that is huge and was my mom's and like I mentioned she is gone and I really love this plant so much, thanks so much I always thought it was a form of ripsalis, I will relable it now that I know the correct name. Thanks so very much for this really fun video to watch, I just love your channel so much and also your mom's, and having really meant you both was such a great blessing. Have a beautiful day, sending love and hugs, bye! 😂😊🤗👋👋👍🙏💜💜
the production value on this video is just *chef's kiss* I can tell you've been working hard to elevate your content and it shows!!!!! also obsessed w my money tree they have so much character🌴
I gotta save the rattlesnake calathea! So cool how much it moves throughout the day and closes up at night. And the peace lilies and philodendron! People talk about how hard calathea are to care for but mine are tough.. it would definitely be even easier in a vase of water and gravel with hyrdo ferts from time to time! Sheffield just made a couple cool videos on doing that, and the calathea dottie thrives suspended in my aquarium! No soil = no root rot! Thanks for sharing 🙏
@@HarliG LOL! Well you have really been doing the great interior and exterior decorating and succulents, to me, seem to be so artistic and unique. The different shapes, make them like sculptures. Like your UFO planter, oh my goodness, so stinking artistic.
Begonia challenger is a really great cultivar. It gets these massive furry stems and leaves, and its like a dark lime green. Super easy keeper. I've been really impressed with it. It's in the Summer Rayne video of the begonia tour with Don Miller from a few years ago. That's where i first saw it.
I got teary eyed when you were talking about your Grandma 🥲 Mine passed in 2021 and she had a green thumb too! I inherited a few of her plants over the years and still have them with me. Totally know what you mean when you say you take more time to care for that begonia! Love that connection we have through one another and our plant babies ❤️
Your epiphany is that your favorite plants are the ones that make it!... lol me too, it's hard for a plant to become ones favorite if it doesn't survive and thrive a little. Get Kalanchoe plants, those things don't die.
I ❤ my philodendron jungle boogie, peace lily, huge Draceana marginata, micans, and surprisingly my Aglonema golden Madonna. It is one that I wasn’t a huge fan of but have grown to love more and more overtime since it has been in my home
For blue-green foliage Amydrium medium Silver is stunning and also fenestrates early and has an interesting bullate texture a bit like a Monstera Peru. Only issue is it really needs a moss pole or it will send endless runners. Also Epipremnum amplissimum Silver. I don’t have this but it has that blue-green look and being a pottos it’s got to be a winner. Harli if you love bright pink blooms, I recommend the humble Holiday cactus Schlumbergera truncata (get the pink-flowering cultivar obvs). In bright light it explodes during blooming season with a profusion of the most intense cerise pink flowers. Really beautiful and such a trouble-free fast growing plant.
Also if you love Crassula ovata for its corking and tree-like appearance, the Gollum cultivar does this too and looks really sculptural. Both also propagate so easily and size up fast. Such an under-rated plant!
I have never seen a Thai Pink before it’s amazing 💕 I also have a Begonia Maculata a friend gave me. It currently has leaves that are sixteen inches long 😮
I got a cebu blue cutting start of spring that’s now grown into a vine, each leaf has fenestrations, she’s in full sun, south facing and loves it. I guess it’s also down to the genes of the plant that determines whether or not they’ll have fenestrations 🌱 I also have a ‘standard’ form of cebu blue that has no fenestrations. Yours looks absolutely fabulous regardless of the fenestrations 🤩 💚
Love all of your plants. I’m going to have to look for that Cebu and the begonia and add to my collection. My favorite from my collection is the Whale Fin Sansaveiria. It has a baby growing on each side of it. Very expensive. I’ve seen it priced at $32. Think about that … it’s one leaf! But it’s so unique. I was lucky to find one at $22 at Callaways.
All of my plants are my favorites. My purple passion is at the top of the list though. Prayer plant of any color and my goldfish plant. I do not grow all those large pothos, phillies, etc that you grow. I need color. And lack of light, less than you, is my issue. I have to grow under plant lights. Love your channel.
My favs are my lifesaver cactus, dieffenbachia memoria corsii, silver bay aglaonema and lastly, the Thanksgiving/easter/Christmas Cactus plants which I inherited from my elderly neighbor before she moved. Those holiday cactus plants have a lot of sentimental value for me and knowing she got some of them from her grandmother is mind blowing. It's a lot of pressure to keep them thriving. I can't be the one to kill something that's been alive for over 60 years!!!😂
I love 🌵 plants too, I attribute that to me growing in the desert, but I think the reason is because they can be so unique and alien. Another type of plants I love are those with small leaves or unique huge leaves. I was thinking what could be my favorite plants and it will be all my most expensive plants, and the reason is because im so proud they’re alive cause they could be hard to replace.
Love my little Hoya Lacunosa, she blooms constantly, adorable💚🌱🤗 my string of hearts, love their blooms also. Have 2 beautiful Rex Begonias, so easy, and colorful💚💚💚 Love my Phaelonopsis Orchids, blooms are so pretty!!! I just Love plants period!!! 🤗🌱💚💚💚💚💚💚💚😍😍😍😍
I know you had to limit your list, but I’m surprised you didn’t include Scindapsus exotica. I feel so grateful for you and RUclips for introducing me to this plant! It’s become my favorite.
It is so gorgeous! Truthfully, I had to get rid of mine because it outgrew my space. I had nowhere for it to fit where it would get the right lighting ☹️
@@HarliG That’s why I love it! It has turned into a living wall in a bedroom with eastern windows. In contrast, nothing I did could satisfy Scindapsus Slivery Ann, so she wound up on the compost pile.
Succulents are my favorite type of plants so I'm definitely biased in strong support of your picks 😂 I have four types of Crassula ovata (plain, Tricolor, Hobbit, and Hommel's Sunset) and many Haworthia which are very similar to the aloe you mentioned
if i had to start my plant collection all over, my list would be: rubber tineki, zz raven, tillandsia xerographica, micans and hoya lisa. love listening to you talk ^^
Oh my goodness, Tineke are gorgeous! I’ve always had a fear of tillandsia bc their care seems so foreign to me 😮 got any tips? I’d love to try my hand at caring for one
If you like the color of Epipremnum 'Cebu Blue', you'd probably like the color of Scindapsus truebii 'Moonlight'. It has a similar blue-silver tinge to it. I'm very fond of Scindapsus pictus 'Exotica'. I like the size of the leaves, and the silver patterns on them. A plant that I loved at first sight, and have loved for years, is Alocasia macrorrhyza 'Stingray'. I'm enchanted by the long stems topped by those amazingly-shaped leaves! This is my list of favorites, and the reasons why I find them "special": Alocasia Stingray--shape of the leaves Scindapsus pictus "Exotica"---size of the leaves, and their shimmery pattern Beucarna recurvata "ponytail palm"---growth habit Monstera karstenianum 'Peru'--shine of the leaves Calathea/Goeppertia lancifolia "rattlesnake"---colors, nyctinasty (praying) Schismatoglottis walichii "split tongue"---guttation (it consistently "cries" after watering) Aspidistra elatior, variegated---ease of care, the casula way leaves fall one way and another Hoya wayetii, variegated---elongated shape of the leaves, and their burgundy sun stressing I also have a favorite "assortment". In a large vase filled with PON and LECA, I have Neon Pothos, Philodendron Micans, Philodendron Brasil, Pothos Pearls and Jade, Scindapsus Exotica, and Pothos Cebu Blue. They started as a bunch of cuttings in one jar, but they started growing into each other, and now I really like observing all the heart-shaped leaves in different sizes, textures, and colors mingling all together.
And on my wish list, mostly because I like their shape and markings: Anthurium clarinervum, Alocasia Frydek varigated, Alocasia Jacklyn, Aglaonema pictum Camouflage, Ricrac/Fishbone cactus
I ❤ your picks. I tried to grow jade plants outside and failed miserably. I brought a piece of one is and it is thriving. The variegated one is impossible though 🤷♀️.
My Dancing Bones plant is growing slowly. I had it for years and it is not as big as your. I have it grow in a pot with Syngoniums. Recently. I cropped it and put in its own pot.
I moved houses and was forced to give up my 60+ plants. After almost 2 years, I am back. I have started with 3 plants and excited to start watching plant RUclips again
That Thai pink is absolutely gorgeous. My favorites are my Hoyas. Especially the ones that sun stress easily.
Ohh yes. I’ve been trying to find some ways to bring some Hoya upstairs & have them thrive! My house is really poorly lit so it has been a struggle
Same here. I am addicted to Hoya!
I love how you have your cebu blue on that stool (chair?)
Just reading your comment and not knowing the plant, I thought that there is a pink thai constellation for a second… LMAO
The plant that your friend sent you is adorable 🌹🌼🌱🌿🍃🌵🌼🌹
Cebu blue pothos is such a mood, I love it.
Anyone else thinking of your original syngonium butterfly that started as a cutting and is still thriving? We still love you queen
After almost 5yrs of collecting, I finally have my first bloom on a Hoya...so I'm loving Hoya Sunrise, right now. My other favorite are ALL of my prayer plants. The only true low light house plant for me that constantly push new growth.
I can always count on you to show plants I've never seen before! I'm loving succulents too, so easy 👍
All the nostalgia that last plant just gave me.
I love the Aloe Coral Fire. It's so pretty and I love it in bloom too.... gorgeous 💋👍🌹
I've been growing and collecting succulents and trops for over 40 yrs. (I'm getting old) lol. Your crassula ovata is corking prob bc you keep it on the much drier side.

All your plants are elegant and beautiful, but the begonia is extra special😊🥰🥰🥰😘
You are glowing! I love your videos like this. It feels like we’re hanging out
The Begonia from your gma is great. I love the leaves. How special to have from her😊❤
Scindapsus exotica is my favorite. I’m gonna NEED a dancing bones cactus after seeing yours 😍
I LOVE how very emotional you were when talking about your grandma's plant 🥰 I also loved her so much, she was literally my second mother in a way, so I totally feel you with the emotional connection you feel to her plant!
Oh my gosh hi! Aw she’s such a special lady. Mind sharing who you are?! I’m so excited someone made it to my video that really knew her ❤️
@@HarliG oh my god. I meant that I also loved MY grandma😰😰😰😰😭😭 Instead of "mine" I used "her". Im soooo incredibly sorry😅 Im german and I accidentally mixed up the vocabulary.
My favorite type of plant right now is African Violets. They aren’t talked about a lot for some reason… maybe because they are a little more challenging. But I think they’re so lovely and sweet. I just want a whole room full of them! 💜

Each of these plants has their own story and I would pick one to start my indoor plant journey🥰
Unrelated, Harli's hair looks so good in this video 🔥 i just got a cebu blue, looking forward to it getting HUGE over the years
Great picks! I always change my favorites but I always come back to a few core loves like Albuca Spiralis, Calathea Musaica, and any and all Aglaonemas!

I've never been impressed with that begonia until i saw your grandma's. I'd definitely pick one up if i came across it. 😊
The end was my favorite. I always say it with you so it threw me off but the remix was beautiful 😂

Well you have really been doing the great interior and exterior decorating and succulents, to me, seem to be so artistic and unique. The different shapes, make them like sculptures. Like your UFO planter, oh my goodness, so stinking artistic.
Yesssss I’ve been waiting for this ❤️ I hope things are well 🥰
Thank youuuuu thanks for stopping by! They are, I hope the same for you (:
I had to go out and buy the Thai Pink & Dancing Bones cactus after seeing how beautiful yours were!
I love plants with different or unusual colors, my favorites are Treubii Moonlight Scindapsus, Strawberry Cream and Maria Allusion Syngoniums.
You have pretty plants 🌵❤
Besides the amazing plants, why does your hair always look so good 😭😭😭 it always looks so nice!!!
Thank you!!!’ A full cebu is so satisfying. I don’t know if I want mine on poles! Variegated possibly.
Great video! I also watched the favorites video from a year ago and none of those made it to this year. Your aloe makes me want to get one for myself.
Begonia challenger is a really great cultivar. It gets these massive furry stems and leaves, and its like a dark lime green. Super easy keeper. I've been really impressed with it. It's in the Summer Rayne video of the begonia tour with Don Miller from a few years ago. That's where i first saw it.
😅😮
I got teary eyed when you were talking about your Grandma 🥲 Mine passed in 2021 and she had a green thumb too! I inherited a few of her plants over the years and still have them with me. Totally know what you mean when you say you take more time to care for that begonia! Love that connection we have through one another and our plant babies ❤️
You should make your own pot for your dancing bones, Harli! They are so unique and you’ll appreciate your plant even more.
I reached out to one of my favorite ceramicists to make one for it 🤞
Your epiphany is that your favorite plants are the ones that make it!... lol me too, it's hard for a plant to become ones favorite if it doesn't survive and thrive a little. Get Kalanchoe plants, those things don't die.
I ❤ my philodendron jungle boogie, peace lily, huge Draceana marginata, micans, and surprisingly my Aglonema golden Madonna. It is one that I wasn’t a huge fan of but have grown to love more and more overtime since it has been in my home
Succulents are not my thing, but that Thai pink is SO CUTE!!!
My current very very favorite is a global green Pothos. I really love healthy full plants & it’s my fullest plant.
For blue-green foliage Amydrium medium Silver is stunning and also fenestrates early and has an interesting bullate texture a bit like a Monstera Peru. Only issue is it really needs a moss pole or it will send endless runners. Also Epipremnum amplissimum Silver. I don’t have this but it has that blue-green look and being a pottos it’s got to be a winner. Harli if you love bright pink blooms, I recommend the humble Holiday cactus Schlumbergera truncata (get the pink-flowering cultivar obvs). In bright light it explodes during blooming season with a profusion of the most intense cerise pink flowers. Really beautiful and such a trouble-free fast growing plant.
Also if you love Crassula ovata for its corking and tree-like appearance, the Gollum cultivar does this too and looks really sculptural. Both also propagate so easily and size up fast. Such an under-rated plant!
I have never seen a Thai Pink before it’s amazing 💕 I also have a Begonia Maculata a friend gave me. It currently has leaves that are sixteen inches long 😮
OMG if you like the Cebu Blue you absolutely must have a Silver Sword, the coloring is like 🤩!
I got a cebu blue cutting start of spring that’s now grown into a vine, each leaf has fenestrations, she’s in full sun, south facing and loves it. I guess it’s also down to the genes of the plant that determines whether or not they’ll have fenestrations 🌱
I also have a ‘standard’ form of cebu blue that has no fenestrations.
Yours looks absolutely fabulous regardless of the fenestrations 🤩
💚
I’m not usually a succulent kinda gal, but I was recently introduced to Sedum multiceps (aka ‘Mini Joshua Tree) and it’s right up your alley 😍
Ok I definitely need thet first one!
Love all your favs! Do you have any Hoyas? Would love to see 😊
My favorites are ponytail palm cebu blue neon pothos and rabbit foot ferm
Such good picks! Ponytail palm especially 🤌
I love my ponytail ☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️
Love all of your plants. I’m going to have to look for that Cebu and the begonia and add to my collection. My favorite from my collection is the Whale Fin Sansaveiria. It has a baby growing on each side of it. Very expensive. I’ve seen it priced at $32. Think about that … it’s one leaf! But it’s so unique. I was lucky to find one at $22 at Callaways.
All of my plants are my favorites. My purple passion is at the top of the list though. Prayer plant of any color and my goldfish plant. I do not grow all those large pothos, phillies, etc that you grow. I need color. And lack of light, less than you, is my issue. I have to grow under plant lights. Love your channel.
My favs are my lifesaver cactus, dieffenbachia memoria corsii, silver bay aglaonema and lastly, the Thanksgiving/easter/Christmas Cactus plants which I inherited from my elderly neighbor before she moved. Those holiday cactus plants have a lot of sentimental value for me and knowing she got some of them from her grandmother is mind blowing. It's a lot of pressure to keep them thriving. I can't be the one to kill something that's been alive for over 60 years!!!😂
My favourite is my giant Spider plant, even all the babies are giant now . Every time I look at it i get joy
You are bless. Amen!
I love 🌵 plants too, I attribute that to me growing in the desert, but I think the reason is because they can be so unique and alien. Another type of plants I love are those with small leaves or unique huge leaves.
I was thinking what could be my favorite plants and it will be all my most expensive plants, and the reason is because im so proud they’re alive cause they could be hard to replace.
Love my little Hoya Lacunosa, she blooms constantly, adorable💚🌱🤗 my string of hearts, love their blooms also. Have 2 beautiful Rex Begonias, so easy, and colorful💚💚💚 Love my Phaelonopsis Orchids, blooms are so pretty!!! I just Love plants period!!! 🤗🌱💚💚💚💚💚💚💚😍😍😍😍
I've never seen the Thai pink! It's amazing! And I really want a trailing jade but have never seen one, just a small regular. They grow slowly, right?
Your outro is so cute!
Great video !!
Thanks!
I know you had to limit your list, but I’m surprised you didn’t include Scindapsus exotica. I feel so grateful for you and RUclips for introducing me to this plant! It’s become my favorite.
It is so gorgeous! Truthfully, I had to get rid of mine because it outgrew my space. I had nowhere for it to fit where it would get the right lighting ☹️
I did take cuttings though so I have a very small plant to start all over with
@@HarliG That’s why I love it! It has turned into a living wall in a bedroom with eastern windows. In contrast, nothing I did could satisfy Scindapsus Slivery Ann, so she wound up on the compost pile.
Thai pink. The pink against the green is a great contrast.
Your Thai pink is stunning, you should sell cuttings in your shop! My current faves are my neon pothos, philo brasil and all my Hoyas!
Succulents are my favorite type of plants so I'm definitely biased in strong support of your picks 😂 I have four types of Crassula ovata (plain, Tricolor, Hobbit, and Hommel's Sunset) and many Haworthia which are very similar to the aloe you mentioned
I went out looking for a dancing bones after seeing it in one of ur videos. Some how found a really bushy 6in pot. Can’t wait for it to age!
I've ordered the Dancing Bones twice keep getting the Mistletoe Cactus, they're tricky!!
This makes me want to walk around and see if I can narrow down the ones I absolutely have to keep if I had to get rid of my plants. 🤔
if i had to start my plant collection all over, my list would be: rubber tineki, zz raven, tillandsia xerographica, micans and hoya lisa.
love listening to you talk ^^
Oh my goodness, Tineke are gorgeous! I’ve always had a fear of tillandsia bc their care seems so foreign to me 😮 got any tips? I’d love to try my hand at caring for one
I love all lipstick plants!
If you like the color of Epipremnum 'Cebu Blue', you'd probably like the color of Scindapsus truebii 'Moonlight'. It has a similar blue-silver tinge to it. I'm very fond of Scindapsus pictus 'Exotica'. I like the size of the leaves, and the silver patterns on them. A plant that I loved at first sight, and have loved for years, is Alocasia macrorrhyza 'Stingray'. I'm enchanted by the long stems topped by those amazingly-shaped leaves!
This is my list of favorites, and the reasons why I find them "special":
Alocasia Stingray--shape of the leaves
Scindapsus pictus "Exotica"---size of the leaves, and their shimmery pattern
Beucarna recurvata "ponytail palm"---growth habit
Monstera karstenianum 'Peru'--shine of the leaves
Calathea/Goeppertia lancifolia "rattlesnake"---colors, nyctinasty (praying)
Schismatoglottis walichii "split tongue"---guttation (it consistently "cries" after watering)
Aspidistra elatior, variegated---ease of care, the casula way leaves fall one way and another
Hoya wayetii, variegated---elongated shape of the leaves, and their burgundy sun stressing
I also have a favorite "assortment". In a large vase filled with PON and LECA, I have Neon Pothos, Philodendron Micans, Philodendron Brasil, Pothos Pearls and Jade, Scindapsus Exotica, and Pothos Cebu Blue. They started as a bunch of cuttings in one jar, but they started growing into each other, and now I really like observing all the heart-shaped leaves in different sizes, textures, and colors mingling all together.
And on my wish list, mostly because I like their shape and markings: Anthurium clarinervum, Alocasia Frydek varigated, Alocasia Jacklyn, Aglaonema pictum Camouflage, Ricrac/Fishbone cactus
I ❤ your picks. I tried to grow jade plants outside and failed miserably. I brought a piece of one is and it is thriving. The variegated one is impossible though 🤷♀️.
My Dancing Bones plant is growing slowly. I had it for years and it is not as big as your. I have it grow in a pot with Syngoniums. Recently. I cropped it and put in its own pot.
