    Love that fettonia. I have never seen that variety. The only way I can keep it alive is in a glass enclosure or in my prop box. A lady at my daughter's office didn't want her money tree so my daughter brought it home for me. It was in bad shape and was also braided. My windows are cold in winter and because of trees around the house it didn't get much light during winter,but repotting and unbraiding, it has perked right up and looks really nice. Our home depot has the same plants as you and prices very similar and yes the prices seem to have increased. Your husband is an awesome mate as mine would never have plant shopped lol Love your videos and look forward to your next one❤

    Those ruffled, pink fittonia are Fittonia Albivenis 'Frankie'! One of (if not my absolute) favourite fittonia variety. Higher light makes them more pink from my experience!

    This was awesome. I would totally watch you shop for plants at least once a week if you made this a regular thing! It's fun to see all the plants and hear your thoughts on them, maybe even tell the beginners in the group which plants would thrive in different situations, light/humidity/soil type. That would be a great video for people who are new to houseplants, an educational shop-along 😊

    Kaitlyn, I am growing that pink ruffled Fittonia under my grow lights and I just set its' pot in a glass jar that has a good 2 inches of reservoir in the bottom, and wick water it, never letting it go dry. It's so easy to grow like this! Also, funny, I thought it was my grow lights that achieved those solid pink leaves, but alas, looks like a new variety, lols.

    I was scared to get a fittonia as I heard from a lot of people they are finicky and need a lot of water. I fell in love with a huge hanging basket I found and I just went for it and I’m proud to say I’ve had it for almost a year now and it’s so big and bushy I love it! I just wait until I see the leaves kinda get sad and I give it a thorough water! 💜

    The Croton is a beautiful plant, have four in one pot, by plant I mean the leaves. When they bloom, it smells devine! I have mine indoors for several years now and have not had any pest.

      Thanks for defending Crotons!! 🧡 I can feel myself coming around to them and keep being drawn to them in stores, and you’re convincing me too. I didn’t realize they could smell nice! That’s encouraging about the pests as well. Thanks for watching and sharing your croton positivity hehe 😄💜🌿💕✨happy planting!

    GA!! Checking in from MD. As a browser of plants, it's horribly noticable about the high price of plants 😤😤. If the plant i like come with nice pot then it becomes a trade off, otherwise it'll stay right there. I've found the cutest fullest plants on the rolling black cart. Plants basically for $5. We're so glued to the plant display that you'd barely give the cart a 2nd look (tip👍). I recently purchased two fettonias. Definitely attractive to the color. One I bottom watered cause it's too full to do otherwise. The colors from your store are breathtaking OMG. I have a whale fin. Clueless when I purchased it years ago. Today, it's putting out 4 additions. Gives new meaning to slow growing 😱. Overall, I'm enjoying plant shopping whenever I'm out. Get your playlist ready. Unbraiding that tree will be a good one 😂.

    • @reallybigplant
      @reallybigplant  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for confirming about the high prices - we’re on opposite coasts too so I guess it’s happeneing all over🥴 Yeah the whale fins are sooo slow growing! 4 new plants forming sounds like a lot actually, congrats! Mine grows so slow too since I keep it in really low light most of the time. Glad you’re enjoying your fittonias, bottom watering is a good idea probably. I’m experimenting with mine in the shower, I’m not sure if its going to be a problem getting constantly wet on the leaves and not a whole lot of light, I suppose we’ll find out soon enough haha😆 Thanks for watching!! Happy planting 😊💜🌿✨

    The fittonia's are new. The pink one is called 'Frankie'. I've wanted one for about a year. The lime green with pink veins is maybe a Fittonia Albivenis which I've also been looking to purchase. I'm so glad these are coming out in the big box store. There is also a purple fittonia that I would love to add to my collection. They like to stay wet so I have them in self watering pots.

  • @berniea.3255

    I said the same thing when I saw those fittonias. Said I would buy them but they will probably die since I live in the SoCal desert. But guess what? Both are doing great and it’s been about six months. No humidity and no humidifier!

      @reallybigplant  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ask your HD nursery team what day they get new arrivals of your favorites and most of the time they’ll let you know the best time to go, for what and how soon it hits the floor!
    Lately, they’ve been getting a ton of variegated plants for cheap.
    Altman Growers uses a LOT of rooted cuttings for their bigger pots and arrangements, so keep that in mind when watering, deciding when to repot, how to repot and separate. For succulents, they usually have more than one cutting in the pot and you can get a few more plants than you expected well for succulents at least.

    Absolutely!! Good luck with the bathroom challenge I'll call it. I can't imagine sticking any of my plants in mine even for the humidity. I see the smartness watering plants in the tub. My concern is being annoyed by gnats in such a narrow space. Likewise regarding all things plants. See you in the next video.

    @kathrynvaughn359 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Yes I agree you can always put them in as terrarium they have large round jars with lids Yu out could put in there put lid on and you won't have to water for a year. I've started African violets from leaves in a large clear plastic jug as ND they have been there for at least 2 years and only watered 2 or 3 times with food and they are doing great every leaf is perfect.

    I think the price of everything has gone up. I was shocked the other day when I noticed that olive oil costs almost twice it was before. Maybe the plant shops order their stock so well in advance that the price rises affect the customer long after the price rise actually happened...? I can't buy almost anything now because I'm unemployed and there's a baby on the way, so no plant buying for me... I get my plant fix from taking care of the plants I have and preparing for the summer season of growing vegetables on my balcony🙂

  • @K4ijy
    @K4ijy 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I don't get why everyone is so worried about their Fittonias. I have two of them, one sits in our bathroom in a really dark corner. I forget about it until I notice the leafs start to look different (usually the whole plant feels stiff like sandpaper, but when they start drooping I pet them to see if they feel *soft* and the stems are easy to move). When they enter that state or even later (I have another one in an even darker corner that I always forget) when they already start dropping some leafs and are genuinely lying on the floor... I just hold them under flowing water for a couple of seconds, let the water drip off and just put them back into their spots. I don't know how often I have to water them, maybe once or twice a month?! We don't really have humid air here, so I can't keep any Calathea happy, but I can't kill a Fittonia even if I'd wanted to.

    Hello, I'm new to plant care taking and want to know how soon do you repot the plants after buying from a store like Home Depot / Lowes?

    • @kiera1017
      @kiera1017 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      unless the soil has an issue (repells water or retains too much water) or the plant has pests/noticeable signs of distress (mushy, rotten leaves, new growth is dead, etc), you don't *have* to repot plants until they've outgrown their pot or develop these problems.
      most people who've had plants for a while repot bc they have a soil mix they prefer. if i want to repot, i wait until the soil is dry. sometimes that's right away. i haven't found it makes a huge difference either way.

    Our Home Depot here must hate plants, if I don’t get one right after it was received in shipping, they kill them off fast, underwatered, way overwatered, I’ve gotten a couple rescues for cheap though
    I bought what was labeled as a Philo Oak leaf, then a year later picked up my Florida Green, apparently the Oak leaf was mislabeled, it’s a Florida for sure, potted them up together…
    I love crotons there everywhere in Hawaii, but they die every time o bring them indoor for winter, they prefer the 100 degree (f) heat

I was very gentle and careful about 9 months to a year ago. I have lost 4 of the 5 braids. One survives. All I can say is I couldn't afford to loose a plant that cost almost $200.00 I would probably have a breakdown over it especially if I caused it. Do no I will never unbraid another one.
