    I love watching your plant shopping videos- I feel like a kid in a candy shop with you. That is the most beautiful African Violet ever! I love your enthusiasm. I also love that you NEVER bash a plant shop for its prices. You always are so professional and so respectful.

    I usually save money by bending down at a nursery and picking up broken pieces of plants that fall on the floor. They only get swept up and thrown away by the staff anyway, so I get free plants this way!

    My favorite nursery had a sell of the pots and home decor. I got a big self watering pot that was $124.99 for $31! It was 75% off! Its a square one on legs!! I needed it for my big ass monstera. I was so excited!

    Hi Ashley-- Great vid as always!! The wick in the rabbit's fern will help with keeping it moist. also it needs more water than you say you water.Especially if you have low humidity. Put it very near your humidifier!! Any of you plants you bought with the wicks in them, set them on pebbles in trays and bury the wick. Keep the pebbles moist and the wick will draw the water into the plants. I had said that in a previous post on the African violet as well. Good luck with your new babies!!!

    Related to your sunglasses: When I was in university I always lost my pens and pencils, never could find one even though I bought cheap packs of them all the time. Someone advised me to invest in one high quality, expensive pen and to get rid of everything else, and it worked! I kept that pen for over a year (until I graduated). Sometimes we unconsciously don't take care of stuff because it isn't valuable to us. Better to buy once, buy well. 🙂

    When I go to any plant shop I stop by the clearance section first. Always good finds and I’ve gotten good at rehabbing plants. Somehow when I go shopping I rarely spend more than $33 on plant things. I loved this shopping on a budget idea. I wish we could go plant shopping together.

    @kyrad6543 3 года назад +2

    I love my rabbit's foot fern. The only way I can keep ferns alive is to continue to use the wicking system. I put the pot into a clear jar where I can keep about 1/2" of water in the jar but not touching the bottom of the pot. The wick stays in that reservoir of water. They are happy this way. I just got the Rosy Maidenhair fern yesterday.

    • @kyrad6543
      @kyrad6543 3 года назад

      If you happen to like Talenti Gelato, the small wicking pot that your rabbit's foot fern came in will sit perfectly in an empty gelato container. Not the prettiest presentation but it works and my fern has been thriving this way.

    Neon pothos grows like crazy and surprisingly doesn't have to have intense light. The AV and fern need lots of light. Do NOT buy the "aquamarine" plant (sellagenella). It is beautiful, but impossible to keep alive. (I've been a plant person for 50 years, so believe me! "This shopping on a budget thing is fun." Oh, my!

    Love all your purchases. I have two Rabbits Feet. Bought at the same time at the SC Farmers Market. Never had any bf either. I love them! Glad you went with one too. You won’t be disappointed.

    So happy I can plant shop through you. Still in lock down here - ONLY essentials.....Ferns - no thanks. I love them, but kill them.

    I love my Rabbit’s Foot Fern. I’ve had it for about 8 years now. It actually doesn’t require that much humidity, either! I picked up my first Fittonia yesterday (red striped one).
