    Fun fact: I bought a raven zz from Walmart that was completely dead. Like, for real dead. And I grew it back from the roots that were still viable. Super proud of that.

    Yes! I want a video of plants that grow quickly.
    I mistakenly bought a real fiddle leaf from Amazon. I was shooting for a fake one so I wouldn’t have to care for it- and here I am 😂

    I used to think that about fiddle leaf figs too, but I feel like I found the secret and need to share. I grew my fiddle right next to a humidifier, about 3 feet back from a south window and it grew from about 1.5 feet to 7 feet tall in about 2 years. Wiping the leaves on a regular basis is a necessity in my opinion, I think the dust the leaves tend to collect because they are so big really stunts its ability to photosynthesize. I hope this was helpful to someone. Love the video!

    don’t know if you’ve thought of adding the spider plant to your “buy these small” -list, but mine grew from a cutting to two feet in like two months and it was really encouraging to see the process

      Spider plants are champs! I'm in horticulture school and our collection of about 20 mature spider plants got covered with scale and sooty mold during the start of the pandemic when no one was on campus to regularly care for them. My class cut them back to soil level last semester and repotted them, and they have already bounced back completely and are even producing tons of babies.

    I so wanna see the video about plants you should buy small. I find small plants so much more satisfying to buy because in a year or two the amount it has grown compared to its initial size is so significant and it was all your care and work

  • @jorgecanales798
    @jorgecanales798 2 года назад +22

    I've found that Snake plants really need to be outside during the warm months to grow at least in my situation where my south facing window is covered by screen and then blocked by some trees i have no choice but to use grow lights. I live in North Texas so the only cacti i can have outside year round are Opuntias and i totally agree with you, unless someone wants to make a mixed Planter, cacti should be bought or propagated big. Let's not forget that sometimes cacti will become summer dormant and not grow

    • @Naronaxie
      @Naronaxie 2 года назад

      I’m also in North Texas, left my snake plant in a low light area and it has grown so much! The biggest difference was feeding it fertilizer.

    I bought a small Fiddle Leaf fig early in my plant journey & messed in up in all imaginable ways. I finally cut my losses & learned my lessons. Recently I got a large Fiddle Leaf, which looked like I had wanted the first one to be - tall & lush. I got it in a nice sunny spot & have not lost a single leaf. Love Love Love my Big Boy!!! Definitely do a follow up re plants that you can get small & do great - Pothos are a great example

    I don't know if I just have wacky conditions, but I got a moonshine sansevieria just over a year ago and it's grown like crazy! Admittedly I didn't get it as a tiny baby, but it's definitely got loads bigger and constantly gives me babies. I've even got it to flower (don't ask how, I have no idea!!). However, I have a trifasciata that I've had for about three times as long, that has barely done anything at all (although I also got that to flower too somehow)! From experience, I'd say if you want a sansevieria that grows then maybe go for a moonshine.

    • @BeccaDeLaPlants

      I have the exact same situation! My moonshine sansevieria has grown a ton over the last year, and I'm honestly so surprised because I didn't expect much out of it. It's still in the same 6" nursery pot, but I love that it's been such a reliable houseplant that's exceeded my expectations :)

    I ordered a 4” samurai snake plant online knowing it would be a slow grower, but what arrived was a 2” plant in a 4” pot. It’s been almost a year and he’s barely grown at all but honestly it makes such a cute desk plant!

  • @michellel4774
    @michellel4774 2 года назад +3

    I totally see where you're coming from regarding the fiddle leaf fig. But, I bought mine when it was small about a year ago (maybe 8 inches tall??) and am really enjoying watching it grow. It gives me a sense to satisfaction. It's is about 20 inches tall now and is very healthy.

  • @Jo_Alien
    @Jo_Alien 2 года назад +1

    Strangely out of the several pot of snake plants I have, the one that has grown the fastest and out out like seven new leaves is the leaf propagation I did when my sister knocked off a leaf. It took forever to root, but once it did, it started putting out new leaves within a couple months. My cylindrica is also also growing super well in its terracotta pot without drainage. I love my snake babies!

    This was a very good video. I am sansevieria collector. I like to buy them small and watch them grow. I feel over the years that they've taught me to be more patient as a person due to my disabilities. I also have aloe vera, dracaena, ficus and ZZ plants that I've grown from small plants. I do have southwest-facing Windows. The love your videos and you've taught me so much. I would like to see a small plant video also. Thank you 😊 🙋‍♀️🪴

    I would definitely like to see a "buy them small" video. Even though most of the plants you mentioned I already knew about, I learned it all the hard way😣 (my fiddle leaf is about 1.5 feet tall and I've had it for almost 2 years).
    Also, cool tip about cacti. Did not know that putting them outside in summer could help growth. Maybe I'll actually be brave enough to get one now 🤔 my summers can get hot 🔥

    I loved this video and would love to see the small plants video. I too bought small plants when I started collecting 2 years ago and have learned the slow grow process. I live in Florida so most of my plants thrive with my natural climate I also tend to leave windows open. Funny enough I thought my cactus would be a slow grower. Oh boy is he huge, he is outside but sheesh 😅 any who’s love your videos hope to see more 🤗

    My ZZs (I have both Raven and green) are slow'ish, but they're way faster growing than my snake plants which share the same shelf space in a NW facing window. I got all of them (snakes & ZZs) just over a year ago (Walmart/Costa Farms) and the ZZs have tripled in size from 8" to over 24" long and adding new canes fairly regularly - esp. now as the day length is getting longer I have a bunch of new canes popping up. ZZs are so cool. I think my slow snakes are even faster than my small fiddle leaf, and a few of my succulents/cacti are much faster than I thought they would be. I got a 8" 'Dragon Fruit' cutting last November and it's already over 4 feet tall - it's almost frightening! And my "Cow Horn" euphoribia has easily doubled in size over the past 6 months - from 6-8" to almost 18" Both are in a West facing sliding door window. And yes, all of my cacti go out from Spring to Fall (basically when night temps consistently stay above 45-55F)

    My green ZZ puts out loads of new growth ! I give it really bright light. But this winter it out out 7 new shoots . ( My raven did too. It is just slightly slower. ( Indoors they were under poor light )
    I have a shade cloth I got from Amazon. It's 75% I think. All my plants go out for summer camp !

  • @anjalilakra15
    @anjalilakra15 2 года назад

    For me, my snakeplant grew bushier like crazy when I left it out in the monsoon rain for a 4-5 months. From my experience, decent amount of watering but good sun exposure can help the plant to grow fast.

    • @anjalilakra15
      @anjalilakra15 2 года назад

      Even ZZ, I just left it out in the open when I relocated during the pandemic and when I came back it has grown at least 5-6 different stalks from just one stalk. In a span of 5 months ish.

    @billybailey4593 2 года назад +1

    I agree with all in the video except the zz plant. I got a 4 inch pot right before winter to go in a low light area in my living room this thing has been growing like crazy and I love the way it grows. I cant imagine what it will be like in the summer time if I put it in a sunny location

    Okay so I bought my snake plant three years ago as two small cuttings and I payed like 3€ for both. I always put it in the darkest corner in my flats and it grows really well 😅 It got like 3-4 new plants in the pot and I cut 6 cuttings of it because It grews too big 😅
    Maybe I'm just really lucky but I would never pay like 50-100$ for this plant when I can get some nice cuttings which are growing well in 2-3 years.
    But really great video, I love it 😊

    I have a dracena that is over 7 ft tall. I got it in a combo pot with an Australian holly and some other plants over 10 years ago. The only other plant to make it that long with the dracena was the Holly- and that is not about 3.5 ft tall. They are still together in a larger pot with some pothos and ivy.

    @NatalieGrace99 2 года назад

    My sister is a very forgetful plant owner - she remembers to water mayyyybeee once a month? Because of that I've mixed a soil blend for her that retains water a little longer. She has a corn plant and a snake plant and both were small when she got them. She's had them for nearly 3 years now, and somehow, her plants are growing pretty fast! Her snake plant put out like 3 fins and her corn plant has practically tripled in size. Because she kind of sets and forgets, whenever she does come back, that slow growth is rewarding for her. Meanwhile I'm a fussy plant lady and I love fawning over my plants (I killed my corn plant 😂).

    Buying it small I imagined it to be my heirloom plant - quite easy to care for, slow grower, not big.
    I want to have it for the rest of my life and then leave it to my kids. 🙂

    I’m like a year late on this, but I see so many people say ZZ grows slow. Mine is out of control! I’ve had her about 2.5 years & she’s quadrupled in size. I got her small thinking she’d stay that way for a long time. 😅 She’s been upgraded to a large pot & sits on the floor now.

    Maybe try a fiddle leaf fig bambino instead? That was my 1st plant! I got it 2 years ago and it was pretty tiny. Now it's almost up to my shoulders!

    I bought a large sansevieria 3 years ago and it's gotten smaller 😅. Unfortunately I struggle with these lol.

    Becca my snake plants grow very well and make lots of baby stalks.

    I bought a baby fiddle leaf fig, it was like $8 so I decided to get it so I could grow it slowly. Biggest. mistake. ever. I had to travel from Arizona to Alabama with it and it died within a month. Only spent $8 but I felt ROBBED!

    Yes…I want to know what to buy small. I bought a Raven ZZ a year ago and it hasn’t budged….it was the Costa Farms medium size, came in peat and plastic after 6+ months I moved it to terracotta and well draining soil….still nothing. 🤔It gets some light and I’m watering about once a month. I still like it but I want to see it grow

    Great points about slow growing plants. I’d love to see a video on fast growing plants.

    I have the opposite opinion re fiddle lead figs. I bought a small one (less than a foot) for $15. It has grown 2-3 extra feet in under a year on my front porch. If you have good conditions they grow fast! And if you don’t have good conditions you probably don’t want to be risking big money on a big one...

    I’ve learned in my experience, it’s better off getting bigger plants or big cuttings. I’ve had trouble with the smaller baby philodendrons I have

    Honestly I think palm tree house plants you should buy big too. If you want them as a gaint plant, they are one of the most slow growing plants, (Only putting out 1-3 fonds a year depending on the specific type).

    I got my snake plant in a 10 in pot, and probably a few feet tall, for $25 at my local save mart grocery store. Sometimes, for buying big common plants for cheap, grocery store is the way to go. Just watch out for overwatered or pest infested plants!

    You can also create a little rock wall around the north side of a cactus! It'll absorb the warm light from the sun and then radiate it back to the plant at night! 😊
