- It's not too often that I win contests, like the old saying: You gotta play, if you wanna win. But recently I entered an Instagram contest with The Plant Stand of Arizona in Phoenix.
Y'all have heard me talk about them and share shop with me videos when I lived there. I love them!
Well, I won a plant that has been on my wish list and I actually never thought I would get because of the price.

I am missing you also. Hope you will be back soon and that everything is OK. We ❤ you sweet pea.
Me too. ❤❤❤❤
Miss Carmen are you okay, I missed your presentation of your gorgeous plants!!! 🍀hope to hear from you soon
Yes, thank you. I'll probably be doing an update video soon. But, I'm good.
@@carmenwhitehead 😍👍🙏
Praying for you Carmen !!
She’ll bounce back.
I’m so happy for you to receive one!
I've already had to cut those two lower leaves because they turned very dark and limp. But, otherwise she's doing just fine.
OMG Carmen, congratulations……. What a great prize…..
Miss you Carmen!!!
I’m so sorry you received such a sickly looking plant!
It's been super hot in both Phoenix and Orlando, so I'm sure she had a rough trip. I'll keep a close eye on her.
Hey Carmen, I love the new baby! I haven't seen you on UA-cam recently. I hope all is well 🙏🏽
Yes…. You really are missed !!!!
All my stems that are bend I tape a small paper until it firm up. I have 2 of them and 1 albo going thru thrips 😩. I keep all mines in clear pots so I can see the roots.
Great tip! I have already supported the one bent stem and keeping it upright.
Really miss you!! You’re my go to plant lady!!!!
Hope you're doing well.we haven't seen you in a while.
I'm doing well. I'm taking a step back from UA-cam and social media. Not sure if I'll be back. thanks for checking on me and blessings!
I just got my starter plant also. Be careful of root rot. I changed mine in aroid mix. Wish you well. 🌿🪴🙋🏼♀️💚🌱
Yes, I saw your video! Yours looks great. Mine...not so much. It's already in a good aroid mix, but I think I'll repot her into a clear orchid pot to keep a closer eye on the roots.
Congratulations Carmen ! Hope she will grow and flourish for you 🪴💚🪴
I hope so too!
After she acclimates I would repot in a clear plastic orchid pot so you can keep an eye on the roots. Good luck and enjoy.
Good idea! Thanks so much.
Congratulations on this plant you won, hopefully she will grow and get so much prettier. Have a great day, sending love and hugs, bye! 🪴🪴💜💜💜
Thank you! You too!
Wow! What a great prize. She’s beautiful!
Congratulations! I not too long ago was able to find one as well at a reasonable price. So I can understand the joy. I’m quite sure she will bounce back in no time
I think so too. I've already taken off the two lower leaves that were looking really bad. I also put a bamboo stake to hold her up and help that bend stem. Fingers crossed! 🤞.
@@carmenwhitehead good luck. I would love to see an update in the future.
what a breath of fresh air you are! just found your channel. thanks for sharing! sending love from Maine
Thank you so much!!
We’re missing your videos, Carmen. Hurry Back!
We missed your miss carmen hope u doing ok in Florida
Congratulations
Congratulations on your baby!!! Beautiful 🤗🌱💚 laughed at your funny editing😉😄🤗
Thanks! I'm trying to switch it up a little and add some humor.
I’m so happy for you Carmen! Please keep us posted with your Thai, how exciting! I don’t have one myself but it’s something I want to have in the future. God bless you
Thank you! Will do!
Hi Carmen
Wishing you are ok,
💚🌵🌱🪴💚
Yes, thank you. I will be making an update video soon!
Wow! 😮 Great Prize!
Hi...haven't seen a video from you for a while.Looking forward to your next one.November 8,2023.🇨🇦
Hi! I'm taking a break for a bit. I should be back after the holidays. Thanks for checking on me!
Congratulations!!!!! You are so funny!!!!!!
Thank you!! 😁
She looks really good for traveling across the country from 9b scorching desert to 9b subtropics. She'll bounce back and grow new leaves. I've bought several starter plants from The Green Escape nursery in Florida. I've fallen for jewel orchids and they have some insane African violets and nice carnivorous plants.
I've already cut off the two lower leaves that looked bad and I also attached a slim bamboo stick to the bent stem to keep it upright.
Such a cute one,she will be ok in your care,that’s my Wishlist plant aswell !🙏
💚🌱🌵☘️💚
Carmen I hope you’re ok. Miss you❤
How very exciting!! Your Thai baby is gorgeous!! Georgia is a great helper❤
He always has to be into whatever is happening! thanks so much for watching.
Congratulations! ❤
Congratulations, Carmen!! She's beautiful and I know she is going to love you being her new Plant Mom!!!
So happy for you!
I just discovered your Channel and loves It! From Québec , Canada
Thanks for subbing!
Bienvenue, moi aussi je viens de quebec.
Beautiful leaf. I'm sure it will grow good for you. Have a blessed day Carmen.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Carmen congratulations. What a wonderful prize. Pup is such a good help to mommy. Love Sherry 🥰🙏💞
Georgie is definitely very interested in whatever mommy does. LOL!
Oh, I'm so happy for you! What an amazing prize!
I'm sure she will bounce back with your love ❤️
I hope so too!
Hi Carmen, we didnt hear anything from you the last weeks! 😢 What happend? Hope you are doing well! All good and best wishes from Martina, Germany.
Coming soon! I've been going through some medical stuff. But, I'm ok and I'll make a video soon. Thanks Martina!
@@carmenwhitehead Pray for a speedy recovery! Best wishes!🍀
Looking forward to see your videos again. Best regards from UK
Congratulations Carmen. With you love and care I'm sure she will recover nicely.
I hope so!
That a was such a nice gift for you, Carmen! I have never seen a plant packaged up so so much in my life.....wow! They really take pride in their packaging and I'm sure in your loving care it'll thrive beautifully!
The packaging was great. It's just been so hot lately that it suffered heat stress.
@@carmenwhitehead .....I hear ya........as did us humans as well :))
I've had some plants where to leaves died so I tried to bring the plant back with just taking care of the root and darned if the plant didn't come back! Enjoy the new plant baby and all that fun bubble wrap!
I think she'll be fine in the long run. But, she may look a little ugly for a while. LOL!
Not ugly, just a little tired.
I just realized you haven’t had a video in a while are you alright ? I didn’t know if you have been sick hope you are ok
Thanks carmen iam happy you won❤❤
I miss seeing your videos. When you return I can’t wait to see how your Thai is doing.❤
Hey where have you been? Are you okay?
I'm just taking a much needed break. Thank you for caring. I am posting on my Instagram.
Congrats, she will come back with your care!!
I hope so! Thanks for watching.
That is do nice,I'm happy for you.
That’s so cool you won a wishlist plant thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plant lovely
Thanks for visiting!
Sista, you need to repot it, because the root already too long in water can be soft and will die
Congratulations. Being in Florida it will probably grow like crazy. Just surprised that with all the wonderful packaging that three of the leaves got damaged.
I think it's all heat damage. it's been incredibly hot in both Phoenix and Orlando, so it had a rough trip.
Hi Carmen! Hope all is well and look forward to seeing u soon.❤🌿🫶🏾
All is good, thanks! Blessings!
Congrats! I’d put it in a chunkier soil once she is acclimated for sure. Thai cons are very prone to root rot.
Thanks for the tip!
Hair fluffed...check. Congratulations on the win, how exciting!! Georgia wants a prize too. lol.
😊 thank you
Missing your videos ! I hope all is well.
All good, just got burned out on creating videos after 5 years. I'm still taking care of my plants, but I'm also doing much more photography. I think I'll need to do an update video soon. Thanks for checking in!
@carmenwhitehead Glad to hear that everything is ok ! Looking forward to seeing you come back 😀 💚🪴
That's awesome! Congratulations on your new baby! She'll be strong for sure 💪
I hope so! Thanks for watching!
@carmenwhitehead I hear they are very particular about their care and are not like your typical Monstera, bearing that in mind and doing our best, the new baby should be ok, my plants amd I are rooting for ya! 💪🪴💫
congrats on getting one of your wish list plants!🥰👌
Thank you!! 😊
Hi Carmen, nice plant! Im shure with bright light without direct sunlight and not too much water this monstera will doing well! I dont know, but i would have attention of the dogs, my dogs for example like my monstera deliciosa for eating and i have to take care to keep the leafes away from the dogs 😂 . I hope your dogs are not plant eaters like my dogs😅. I dont see Rosie, die sweet little old girl, in your video? Is she ok? Best wishes from Martina, Germany.
Thank goodness the dogs leave the plants alone. Georgie actually would rather eat the dirt. Rosie is getting slower these days. She spends a lot of time under the couch lately. She's 15 years old, so she's not as active as she use to be.
That is so cool you won the contest! I just got a baby Thia, about your size, last month! Ours can grow up together! I got my starter from the Green Escape....but it was in the upper $50s so yes never thought I would own one either....I have a big leaf that shoukd unfurl soon....it is nerve racking....But like you said they are hardy and so far so good! So happy for you! Please update how that bent keaf does. :)
That's wonderful! Yes, ours can grow together. I talk to her every morning and give her some encouraging words, so I'm hoping that will help. LOL!
Congratulations! The key is to look after your new plant as though it were 100% perfect, until the next new leaves come out. If it were me, I would brace that bent stem somehow to keep it stable (a toothpick and some propagation tape?). But you'll need to have someone hold the leaf up while you do it, to keep it steady and in position. Good luck 🤞🩷🤞
Yes, that's exactly what I did. I attached it to a thin bamboo stick to keep it upright. I've already taken off the two lower leaves that had the heat damage. Otherwise, it's doing good.
@@carmenwhitehead well done! Keep us posted 🤗
Carmen congratulations 🎉, I’m so happy for you, much deserved my friend. I needed this after a crazy am at work. She’s a beauty and I’m sure she will do great in your care, I think I would remove the concerning leaves though. I love mine, she lives in pon.
Yes, I've already removed those two lower leaves and keeping an eye on the third. I also propped up the good leaf that has a bent stem with a little bamboo stake to keep it upright. Fingers crossed! 🤞.
If anyone can make this plant happy it’s you☺️. 🤞🤞🤞
Congrats Carmen! Looking fwd to updates.
Thank you! Will do!
Loved the unboxing! 😄 Great plant!
When a plant got a blend, I scotch tape It and It works
hey girl a little tip for that broken leaf try to use a peace of clear tape and it should heal its self
I attached it to a thin bamboo stick and have it propped up. The leaf looks fine so far. I did remove the two bottom ones that had so much heat damage.
Congratulations 🎉
Missing you. Hope everything is ok
Carmen, I miss you. Hope everything is ok. Please give us a word or two. Donna
Cool plant! Congratulations!
Thank you! Cheers!
That bent leaf concerns me. Could you tape it to reinforce it? Loved your excitement and all your little clips!
Thank you!
Wow congratulations a great win.... :)
Congratulations 🎉🍾, how exciting…..I’m a new subscriber 👋🏽
Thanks for subbing!
Lucky Carmen.
Dios te bendiga Carme, me encantan tus videos,,
Pretty 🎉
Beautiful plant, enjoy watching it grow. Whatever you do don't over-water it. I live in the northeast and I water mine once a month in the winter and twice in the summer. I've learned that they tolerate drought much better than being wet. My Thai lives in a super chunky mix and in a terracotta pot. Is it safe to order plants from The plant Stand of Arizona being that it is so extremely hot in there? I've been meaning to buy my sister who lives in Phoenix a ZZ plant but I am afraid it won't make it. Congratulations on winning that gorgeous plant.
they have very healthy plants and do a great job of packaging. I would wait until the fall if you're worried about the heat. Temps will be lower by then.
Thank you! I think I will wait.
Where are you Ms Carmen? Hope you’re just taking a break.
I am Carol. I'll be back after the holidays. Blessings!
We miss you, hope you are well ❤
I'm doing well. I'm taking a step back from UA-cam and social media. Not sure if I'll be back. thanks for checking on me and blessings!
Carmen. Hope you're ok.its been a while.
I'm doing good. I'm in Phoenix now with my parents and son. I'll be back uploading after the holidays. thanks for checking on me.
@@carmenwhitehead for good?
No, only until the first week of December.@@ofthedawn
Looked like you opened a cotton candy.
Be very careful with that plant they rot fast. I lost my first one that way. Let it dry out and bottom water it if possible. Don't cut the leaves for a bit unless the browning continues. It usually only stays on the white, and they love morning sunlight.
Thanks so much for all the tips!
@@carmenwhitehead anytime and congrats. When it has acclimated consider moving it into an aroid mix. I lost mine because it went crazy in PON and I decided since it had so many roots to move it to cocopeat. It was dead in a week. I purchased another one and it is doing great in an aroid mix.
@@hennesseyme9112 It's already in an aroid mix, but I will definitely keep a close eye on it.
Congrats Carmen 🥳🎉 🤞🏽🙏🏼 is it heat damaged or rot! It kinda looks cooked. Hoping it pulls through for you 🫶🏼
It's heat damaged. It's been super hot in both Phoenix and Orlando, so it had a rough trip.
@@carmenwhitehead Yea that’s what I thought, too hot for it but it’s much better than having rot. I think you’ll do good with it! Congrats again! 🎉💚
@@carmenwhitehead and the pot is quite big for such a tiny plant it needs a repot ...
Every time you pick up that leaf on the bent stem you are doing more and more damage.
Wait u moved away??? 🥺🥺🥺
Yes! My daughter, son-in-law and I have been living in the Orlando area for a year now. We're loving it!
And another UA-cam bites the dust. Miss you Carmen but I’m cleaning up my subs and 9months without posts is too long gotta unsub.
Congratulations
Congratulations
