    Great video! I got so jealous watching it though. I checked my local HD last week and there was literally 12 different species in the entire plant section (with a tiny assortment of succulents and cacti). 12. No lie. Yay Ohio. 🙄😂

    I don't think I have ever seen this many types of plants in NYC home Depots... I have only been getting my plants from trader Joe's... This channel and trader Joe's encouraged me to care for house plants. I only have 6 plants because I have a baby (who BTW, loves to dance to the song at the end), hubby, cat, and rabbit to take care of in a tiny apartment with small windows... Until I move to a house, I will continue to learn from you
    Btw, it's so easy to grow a pineapple plant from a pineapple you get from a supermarket 😊

    I have always wondered how the plants places were in Florida. I lived there before my plant parent days. We moved to Utah the summer before my senior year of high school. (Yes, I was devastated!) Now at 58 years of age, I am a "crazy plant lady", and have been for quite some time. Thanks so much for your videos!☺️

    If you want to feel good about the plant selection there, you should see our Home Depots in Northern Michigan. The houseplant selection is sad and when you do find something good, you have to get it before they flood it with water. Henry got a monstera adensonii for his birthday and he is reviving it from an intense overwatering.

      If only he can save Severus the sansevieria laurentii! He needs tips on getting rid of bugs. He has deprived it of water and wiped every blade with neem oil once a week. I have even helped him give it a neem shower. 😆 It came from a nursery with bugs and came out of quarantine for about a week and then went right back to quarantine when bugs were seen in the soil. 🤢

    My local HD plant selection is very small and the plants are not cared for with love. I once asked an employee why the plants looked so terrible and she told me it's because they do not have employees who are dedicated to the nursery. Today you may be working in appliances and tomorrow you may be working in the garden section. It's really sad. And because they don't have a clearance section, many of the plants get thrown away because nobody wants to buy half dead or severely over-watered plants. I used to have a friend who worked there and would call me when a new shipment came in, so I do have several HD plants in my collection. But she has moved on to another job, and I have moved on to Lowes and Ikea...

    es look the same and it looks like a ground cover. Huge air roots
    We're talking huge leaves look the same. Bigger then the ones you were holding up.
    Over watered not sure much variety . No roots coming out the pot I watered it it perked up.
    I think the roots are huge too.?
    Very happy this means it's going to help a lot with my green house.

I'd rather have the blizzards than a hurricane. stay safe! I guess you picked a bad time to visit FL.

    So, I live and work between souther Texas and Louisiana gulf coast, Texas definitely has more and better succulents and cacti. Louisiana has better tropicals. But what I’ve found is that the strongest determining factor for the selection and sheer amount of inventory is the size of the market. I drive through Houston, and Houston, which is obviously a big market, routinely in all its big box stores have much better selection and inventory than do the big box stores in the midsize/smaller city markets where i actually work and live. It’s very frustrating but also I suppose understandable from the perspective of profitability.
    Also, I just bought a variegated SoH in a pink basket exactly like that on Etsy for $55. 😂😫😤
    The seller is located in Cali and obviously picked it up at big box there for probably less than $15. But we never get them with any frequency so I guess that’s just how it goes 🤦‍♀️

      The person from the boutique wanted to get rid of the plant. Found out where it came from and the name. Philodendron s. p was a rare plant. And comes from South East Asia. Should have took off the dead roots.
      I didn't figure out the card till I got home.
      The stem had smaller leaves. I found a smaller one.
      In a small four inch pot.
      So maybe they were thinking sytanof drying the plant I think. Two plants in one pot large.
      I must have looked like an idiot not taking the smaller plant.
      I really thought it was going to live. And I have something that could have helped. At the time I wasn't thinking.
      Dryier it was all bent like a bonsai.
      It also climbs drier,
      And it was 59$...
      That's all right and the clerk told me.
      It needed heavy watering.
      One one had black roots.
      And the other smaller had think the roots looked strong.
      Such a nice plant. 🪴
