Thank you for this video! Lately I’ve been feeling like the plant community has been pretentious? And I feel like common varieties are often overlooked. And also, I love your makeup look here!
Sometimes I get caught up with trendy and rare plants but then I start to feel like that too. It's not a competition. I will always love my "regular" houseplants
wildfern yes! Exactly. I’m like a beginner plant mom but it’s overwhelming to see like all these recommendations of cool plants that are super pricey and high maintenance (so it can be even more overwhelming)!
I just got a Thanksgiving cactus on "buy nothing" group on Facebook and I cannot believe how healthy and gorgeous it is. And pretty mature. It's one of my favorite plants I have. I keep it on top of my refrigerator its a bright kitchen but I live on an island in Washington so she'll have a dark gloomy winter.
Also my local nurseries always have small but full plants for $5/6 like coffee plant, moonshine snake plant. I just got some mini orchids for $5. I got a huge neon Pothos for $13 that I split up into 4 plants. I like Grafted Cactus moon they're so cute and colorful. Also love parlor palm, small and full plants I've found for $5
Great video! Some brilliant ideas for new plant mums 🌱 even if plants are common it doesn’t mean they aren’t beautiful and air cleaning and lovely to have in your home!! I’ve found it easy and cheap to purchase plants such as monstera, snake plant, spider plant, various ficus plants, cacti and succulents of a wide variety, parlour palm etc from supermarkets and the like here in the UK :)
I totally agree with the fact that the plants showcased in your video are quite accessible, reasonably priced and relatively easy to care for. I have all of these plants with the exception of the Thanksgiving/Xmas Cactus but I do have the Easter Cactus which is likewise as lovely. It's enjoyable to watch plants grow in your care in addition to not becoming overwhelming spacewise. that makes smaller plants preferable. I very much enjoyed your video and it's presentation. Thanks for sharing.
One plant I really love is 'dumb cane' or Dieffenbachia. Not sure how affordable they are since I got mine for free from a cutting off a plant we had in the office several years ago. These plants grow really well with not a lot of special care and are so easy to propagate. Plus the leaves are gorgeous. They grow big so add of variety.
Yes - I have a few. They are usually quite affordable :) I had struggled with mine a little but they are doing better now! Thanks so much for watching.
Oooo that’s nice to know! I picked up a medium sized one for under $10 recently and I’m a little worried for it because I saw a little bit of spider mites
Okay okay I love all of your plants and the overall energy in all of your videos, but your STYLE!! What are u wearing on your lips? I don't know if I could pull it off like you do because you are absolutely gorgeous but I love that color and want to know where to find it.
tradescantia quadricolor and tradescantia zebrina are the ones that grow best in my home and also are soooo beautiful plus they are fast growers and is easy to just be cutting it and get new plants!!!!
This was a really helpful video, thank you! I'm excited to get a few of the plants you mentioned if I can. Just potted my peace lily today right before watching this. My favorite plants so far are bamboo and bonsai. Very easy to care for them.
Spider mites infest plants when the plant is stressed... the plant will send out a stress scent that attracts them... Your rubber plant is probably getting spider mites because of the lack of light. They need a lot of light, I would move him under a grow light.
Thanks for sharing these! Interested in getting one the cactus ones 🤔 I love pothos, snake plants, dracena, rubber tree, hoya (but I struggle with these) 🙃
Vanessa Ledesma you’re welcome!! Yes the holiday cactus are so easy and amazing I love them! And for Hoya I water them hardly ever, if that helps at all. Thanks so much for watching :)
Hi I've been looking at some of your videos I seen the peace lily I would like to know what can I get one from they do not have them in Virginia God bless
@@wildfern I hope so! Your Domino is gorgeous and I serious plant envy! I also hope to find the Picasso version, because I hear these two are strangely easier to care for than the regular peace lily!
My uncle has my great grandmothers Thanksgiving Cactus. The cactus' name is Mary & she is over 80 years old. I have a cutting of hers my mom gave me.
Oh my gosh this is amazing. Awe so special :)
We have one that's about 20 years old and its huge... I can't imagine how big mary is
wildfern Thank you, she is a very special family heirloom. ☺️
winnie heard Yes, she is humongous.
One of favorite and common plant is the snake plant. I water my about once a month. Very very easy.
Yessss 🙌 so easy and hardy!

Yup, that's a Thanksgiving/Autumn cactus. I adore holiday cacti. They're beautiful and easy and their flowers are so beautiful.
Yes!! The blooms are partly what got me into houseplants, I was always so mesmerized by them :)
are you kidding me with that lipstick? STUNNING

Okay okay I love all of your plants and the overall energy in all of your videos, but your STYLE!! What are u wearing on your lips? I don't know if I could pull it off like you do because you are absolutely gorgeous but I love that color and want to know where to find it.
Thank you so much 💕 it’s a lip liner from Colourpop in the shade “BFF 2”
My ZZ plant is my favorite! It requires very little and that’s perfect for my busy lifestyle!
So true! ZZ’s are fantastic ☺️
tradescantia quadricolor and tradescantia zebrina are the ones that grow best in my home and also are soooo beautiful plus they are fast growers and is easy to just be cutting it and get new plants!!!!
First plant, named "cactus" in Russia named "Dekabrist" (People who revolt in 1820 against monarchy in Russian Empire)
Just a fun fact )
Potho, Maranta and Tradescantia work very well for me. They're easy and cheap
This was a really helpful video, thank you! I'm excited to get a few of the plants you mentioned if I can. Just potted my peace lily today right before watching this. My favorite plants so far are bamboo and bonsai. Very easy to care for them.
Awesome video idea! I So agree with you about the domino peace lily for sure! They really look like they would be expensive and more rare! 🌿🧡
Yes! So underrated :)
Its so cool that the name of flor de maio in english "thanksgiving cactus" i love it haha

Have you ever had a Gynura? It grows sooo fast, it’s kind of strange because she is about 5 meters long so I have stick it to a column....
I haven't!
I love that spathiphyllum but they are nowhere to be found where I am from.
darn! they kind of come and go here, so maybe one will pop up one day!
