Thank you for saving it! It’s truly sad to see these plants being neglected. Pfft- y’all need to chill in the replies- if you don’t agree then move on with your day my god is it that hard?
Yes. It breaks my heart how neglected they are after they arrive so healthy and gorgeous. Really bothers me. I saved three willow trees from Walmart. They were off in q pile of dying potted plants(sad too) and were at least 6' tall. I gave my neighbor 2 and I kept one and now, a year later they are so healthy and thriving. I hate neglect of living things, across the board.🤬🤬
I bought them, btw. They were in the refuse pile but when I said can I save them they said, yeah, and charged me 5 bucks each which, considering how lovely they would be some day, I paid. Walton family never balks at selling anything. Including from the refuse pile.
They should only be sold somewhere the employees get paid to care for these. These stores always got expired products on the shelf you can’t expect them to care for minimum wage.
Right?!? I head straight for the clearance racks, touch them, talk to them, and the one that tells me that needs the most saving is the one I take home and rescue. Unfortunately I don’t live in an area suitable for the ones I really want nor do I have the funds to rescue them all. Saving one plant at a time
money trees are found in somewhat more wetland type area, so you arent really supposed to let them dry out that much. for mine, i give it a good amount of water about once a week and mist it throughout since they love more humid and tropical environments
Yes!! You're totally right. It's sad how they sell them with a tag saying " just 1 ice cube a month". I thought it was absurd! Did a lot of research and oh my, my money tree is now 4ft tall!
@@danniemikeey579 Also I don’t understand why companies keep saying to water with ice cubes? Other than the fact that by the time it melts it’s not really cold anymore anyways, they don’t need freezing cold water and it’s not enough water? Lol
@@sidthompson9538 I think it’s to stop people from overwatering. Because it’s hard to overwater when it’s living off ice cubes. And it’s less text on a plant label to write “ice cube weekly” than something like “water when dry to ~2in or 50%”
It depends where you live. I am in a very humid place and even the most thirsty plants I can only water ones a week. I drowned a lot of plants before I realized the instructions where not for Humid places 🙈
I love takeing in damaged plants from my store, I've gotten a fig tree and a monstera, i also have plants from my step dads job i have a ming ariala and umbrella tree, they're all doing well! I got some plants from my moms church and they had a fungal infection and it spread to 3 of my little plants and killed them :( one of the little plants i had for like half a year it sucked but at least i have all my trees ^^ and the monstera
I can’t even picture in my head what any of those plants 🪴 are but I’m so proud of you! Good job on saving those plants so sorry your little plants got a fungi infection
Are you suppose to take that off I just reported my money tree and I left it on is it suppose to come off and the string at the top? I'm a first time plant mom
I just rescued 2 beautiful money trees a few weeks ago-they fell off the truck. So of course I bought them and I nursed them back to health, not really knowing what I was doing bc I just started this journey and there are now baby leaves sprouting all over both of them!!! I’m so proud 🥹 🤩🙌🏽❤️ but thank you for giving me information bc I AM just starting out and learning as I go
Girl! Keep doin you! I’ve learned so much from watching your videos because you actually teach us something! I’ve gained so much more patience with my plants. And you’ve got me buying sickly plantS at Home Depot and Lowe’s just so I can save them! You always have great content and the comedy is definitely a plus!
I'm gonna tell you a secret, Home Depot doesn't own most of the plants, we buy the plant from the nursery when you buy the plant from us, the nursery sends out reps everyday to rearrange the plants and they also choose ones to throw away so everyday stores like HD, Lowes, Walmart and any other big box store that has a garden section is throwing away cart loads of plants everyday
I'm a manager at cvs... oh the plants at our store are in such bad shape they defintely need u to rescue them... your so talented... I'm happy my kids are still alive lol I can't grow nothing
I've had my rescued money tree for a year now and never repotted her. Thanks for the instructions on how to properly complete the task and care for it. Love your videos ❤❤❤
SSSOOOO glad to see this video this week! I went to do my watering today, and I remembered this video so I took the time to check out the bottom of the money tree plant that I got two or more years ago at IKEA, and the poor thing had multiple rubber bands around the trunk just under the soil! I was shocked that the poor thing had been actively being strangled this whole time! Thank you for saving my money tree plant!
I have been a farmer for over 40 years, who grows all kind of plants. The one thing I hate about the social media plant enthusiasts is when they give you watering time tables. Especially when it all depends on the infividualʻs climate and location. Maybe if you qualify it with, this time table is based on my situation, for your location it will be different. where I live in Hawaiʻi, we tend to water more frequently because most lucky money plants dries out faster. If I waited one week after it dries out, my plant will already be shutting down and shocked.
I rescued some plants this week :). I’m unless you awake and then I’m taking them out of soil and putting them into water because they will go to semi hydro. Thanks for having her. I love the excitement ❤❤
My sister has her own little tiny money tree plant which she took care of for a while, she ended up not caring for it, placing it in direct sunlight outside and the plant dried. Just recently I started watching your videos and I got the motivation to keep the plant alive. Some more tips would definitely work better, but thank you for sharing what you can! :)
Thank you for showing how they Bind the roots of these please.In my plant groups, when people ask why my money trees dying.I always tell them to take either the tape or the rubber off the root balls and sure enough almost every time.
I bought one from Whole Foods with a rubber band around the base too!! Ever since I repotted him he’s been just putting out new leaves like CRAZY!!! Check on your money trees folks!!
I received this as a Mother’s Day gift, wasn’t familiar with it! So happy I found you! Just repotted it’s a nice plant . Went step by step hope she make’s it! Thanks again for sharing this!👩🏽🌾🌷
Yes, and I have to admit I’ve rescued a number of them. I hate seeing them gradually die from lack of water and poor lighting. I love CVS but I wish they wouldn’t try to sell plants
OMG the rubber bands! That makes me realize so many plants I've bought from stores were probably doomed no matter what I did because I didn't take it out of the original pot!
I got send a money tree as a welcoming gift when i moved to scotland. Repotted instantly and noticed the poor things had no root system, all that was left was some dark brown 2 cm long remnants of roots. Most likely has been overwatered. I have seperated them and i seem to have 5 healthy plants. they didnt like the south window, the leaves did turn lime green and some spots did start to turn into yellow, so i moved them to the north window and they seem to love it. Thank you for the watering advice. Even tho i did wait for them to be somewhat dry, i think i still overwatered them. I will now move to letting them dry out and then wait one more week before watering.
I wish I repotted my money tree right away. I highly suggested for anyone getting a new one, mine had elastics around its roots as well which ended up killing the plant in the end
Mine was a clearance plant that wasn’t doing so great, bought it, took it home & checked the roots as it started dropping leaves left and right.. there was electrical tape cutting off roots! Glad I’d checked. I took off the very tight twisty tie at the top, and just put a loose bit of my scrap macrame cord in a cute little bow. It got a slightly larger pot of new soil. It thanked me by putting out a bunch of new growth & my goodness the baby leaves are so cute!
I love rescuing plants. I got a pepperomia from a clearance bin after the heatwave last year and it is THRIVING now. I also got a dead fern off of Facebook and now it's massive and healthy. Best feeling.
I always find it hard to take out the plants nirsery pot out of the pretty cover pot for watering. I started putting a piece of string over the pretty pot, before lovering the plant in a plastic pot in a way that two ends stick out. This way next time im watering i just need to pull each ens of the string up and it lifts the plant up for me! Btw i love your energy ❤
I had been given one of these. I had it for years, and it wouldn't grow at all. I cleaned the roots off. Someone used electrician tape around the roots, and it was strangled. It's 2 feet tall now ❤
This video really helped my baby money tree grow! ❤he is HUGE for his second birthday but I actually decided to downsize his pot when I went to change his soil bc he had such a small root system. He’s happy with his tiny home 😂
I don't know if you were aware, but I thought you might be interested, Lowes throws away all returned plants. I overbought flowers this year, and I returned some only to watch them be thrown away! I had no idea that was going to happen, and I wanted to make sure you knew.
THANK YIU! I also bought a money tree a couple months ago from cvs and can’t really get the right routine to make their life easier/better so this helps!
the condition some of these store bought plants are in is insane. i bought my aloe plant from walmart and when i bought it the soil was soaking wet and growing moss. its amazing it didnt die before i could transplant it into some cactus/succulent soil
Thank you . I didn’t know the name but my neighbor and I each bought one and mine lost every leaf one by one. The leaves turned yellow and fell off. I repotted and probably over watered. I had it in the bathroom but moved it outside but it never recovered.
We were given one of these as a gift. I love it, but the first thing I did was give it time to dry out. Then I took off the tie and loosened the trunks from each other (including cutting the rubber band around the roots). It's doing so well. I hope it continues to do well.
These plants grow in marshy swampy areas. Mine has flourished in my extremely moist bioactive vivarium. I would not let them dry out as stated! Especially a week after noticing they’re already dry 😬.

Came here to say the same ❤️
@@clairehawkes1112 and I came here to say the same thing as you! 😂
So cool! I love rescuing plants from places that don't get paid enough to care lol. My favorite is Lowes.
I still hate that they sometimes charge over $60-$100 bucks for some half dead plants. I always try for a little discount though.
With places like Lowe's you have to get a plant fresh off the truck or they will be half dead.
Right?!? I head straight for the clearance racks, touch them, talk to them, and the one that tells me that needs the most saving is the one I take home and rescue.

@@cindylamb2129 yeah... T^T
@@rebeccaherrera6006 yessss go be that plant parent
Bro, why is it genuinely so satasfying to see these neglected plants being saved & repotted & stuff
The "its so cute" is exactly how I feel when I repot my plants lol
“Oh no, he was being suffocated!”
My plants are my pets. Some people have dogs and cats.
lol i say this too when i get all giddy and happy after a repotting.
Her plant talking voice when she gets excited warms my heart ☺️

Gotta watch out for religious foliage. Lol
I bet if that plant could talk it’d say. “Thank you soooooo much for taking that rubber band off my bottom and the tie off the top, WHEW!!”
❤️💜💚
I was wondering if that was a rubber band or if it was a root that had grown around the trunks. Regardless, it's free now!
Like taking off your bra at the end of the day lol
@@bethanylaloge5823 YES…exactly!! HA!

You’re awesome saving plants! I love the clay pot you put her in❤
Wow. There are far fewer roots than I imagined
ahhh i love a cute plant rescue :) you’re so fun to watch!!
hopefully he's a happy dude now! I rememeber reading somewhere that they may grow happier if you unbraid them, I haven't tried it yet!
Bless its little heart ❤️
Thank u... You're saving all my relationships.
From plant to human

Your a good plant ‘mom’ lol!! Nice job💖

I've seen two of your videos, and I've already subscribed, lol. I so appreciate what you're doing for these poor plants! 💚
I love that pot, this is great information about the money tree. Thank you for sharing.
This was the first video that i watched from u, and im still following ty for the lovely minutes u gave me ❤
TANK you for this; I had NO IDEA; I will now inspect any plants I bring home…. 👍🏼👍🏼😃👣

Easiest plant to care for.🌴😉

I like that you took that rope or whatever it was off the trunk. Shows you really care about the plant💕
Working for a plant vendor is just so heart wrenching. There are so many plants that get neglected and tossed out in the industry. 😢
So freaking glad I found you I need help with all of this thank you thank you thank you thank you❤❤❤❤❤
I’m enjoying your joy and positivity with plants
Love this lady! I just wish she had a video about the soil or at least explained some more about it
I so adore your inflection and the way you speak t0 us and your plants. 🌿
You are the most enjoyable video I watch!
Thanks for showing us this. I didn't know they put rubber bands around the roots.
I love your content! Thank you for helping me❣️🤟🏼
Glad you saved it! I hate it when they put rubber bands on trees
Thank you for helping me understand why I always kill these 🤦🏻♀️
I love watching krystals love for what she saving. Ty 🥰🙏🪴🌱🌵🌞

I’m at my local cvs and I wanna save one!
Edit: I’m saving it! I’ll do the steps in this and see what I can do
Your personality makes plants go from mindless to fun.
Thanks for the info as always
I have been worrying that my plant is to dry
I love her videos shes so chill i share her passion for the plants
I cracked up when you said it smelled moist! Your face smelling the air from the pot 😂
lol reminds me of my money tree from Aldi. She is so happy and beautiful now!
I love watching people doing what they love you just see theb joy in their eyes
I could not love your love of plants more if I TRIED!!!
I enjoy these rescue videos.

I keep telling people I keep mine alive by leaving it alone 😂
I adore your passion and enthusiasm!!
THANK YIU! I also bought a money tree a couple months ago from cvs and can’t really get the right routine to make their life easier/better so this helps!
The moment you repotted it the plant looks way better... As if the plant was relieved.
That's amazing, I've always heard of these trees but never seen one in real life! Out of curiosity, when does the money start to grow?
Reaction of a true plant lover ..i feel you..💓
the condition some of these store bought plants are in is insane. i bought my aloe plant from walmart and when i bought it the soil was soaking wet and growing moss. its amazing it didnt die before i could transplant it into some cactus/succulent soil
I'd love to see your collection of rescue plant babies.
Thank you . I didn’t know the name but my neighbor and I each bought one and mine lost every leaf one by one. The leaves turned yellow and fell off. I repotted and probably over watered. I had it in the bathroom but moved it outside but it never recovered.
Glad you got it. It’s so cute in the final pots.
A little tip, cut the feet off old tights and pull them up under the pots, keeps the soil from seeping out into the pot saucers.
I love your enthusiasm!! Go you!!
We were given one of these as a gift. I love it, but the first thing I did was give it time to dry out. Then I took off the tie and loosened the trunks from each other (including cutting the rubber band around the roots). It's doing so well. I hope it continues to do well.
These plants grow in marshy swampy areas. Mine has flourished in my extremely moist bioactive vivarium. I would not let them dry out as stated! Especially a week after noticing they’re already dry 😬.
