    It’s a mutant manjula! New cultivar, that’s why it’s pricey :). I think they look so cool though, I bought my regular manjula for 30 on Etsy though 😵‍💫 but I bought my ring of fire for 28 in a 5 inch pot

    Wow, where to begin! I believe I saw 5,731 plants that I’d like to own, at least. I don’t know what would be more difficult, walking through a good bakery and not indulging or walking through these nice plant inventories without stacking a shopping cart to the brim. Life can be challenging at times. On a more serious note, I have several new zz plants from propagations I did that I have to find new homes for. I also propagated one of my cacti that I am giving to a friend’s granddaughter. I learned how to propagate from you and thanks for that. Very fun video.

    Enjoyed shopping with you. Melissa..you remind me of myself when I go in to our Bunnings here (like your Home Depot) and say "I'm not buying anything, I'm just browsing, just cruising". Yeah right! I almost always leave with a plant of some kind (most times a rescue or clearance plant) 🤭 And I'm bracing myself because we're gonna start getting new ones in soon as we move in to spring next month...aaaaaah! I may have to put myself under house arrest 😆

    I call my yucca tree “my dr Seuss tree”!! They grow so tall and in crazy forms!! Especially once leaves start dying back! Def look them up! I wish I could share my photo in the comments!
    I also always end up taking my succulent arrangements apart after a few weeks because they are too packed in there to grow properly!
    And you can absolutely save and store the bulbs from the big alocasias!

    Spider plants have a variety of colors. I’ve got a reverse spider with the green on the inside with the white on the outside. One is dark green without any white. It’s a Hawaiian. Then there’s the curly Bonnie spider. It has a regular coloration but it’s Curley.

    That was a great price for the orchid please don’t use ice cubes like it says just soak the pot in some water for about 15-20 minutes or just water from the top but don’t get water in the crown or it will rot it will hold its blooms for several months
