I did the same thing. It was hard to let go especially with plants I really like or feel sentimental attached to but it was the right thing to do and I feel so much better now!🥰 i always felt like I failed or like I was giving up when I purge a lot of plants at once but now I can really care for the plants that live with me ☺️
And omg I also got rid of my Melanocrysum although I grew really great for me, but I couldn’t see myself growing it taller or chopping it to fill out the pot. It was beautiful and I felt proud that it grew so great for me but someone else will enjoy it more than me
I’ve been in the midst of a purge myself, prepping to move plus I just want to start over with a more focused collection and not holding onto the ones I don’t completely love - I’m down from around 100 to maybe 30 total 🪴 now, and several of those are just waiting for me to find someone to _give_ them to 😅
if you’re comfortable with facebook marketplace i recommend that or a plant fb group! i found a really excited plant lover that actually took all of the plants mentioned off my hands :)
Neon Pothos over the Lemon Lime Philo. I get it. I’ve been eyeing my Golden Goddess which is next to the Neon, and honestly the neon just performs better. 🤷🏻♀️. Why have both? It’s a chance for a 50% reduction.
The Albo 😲😲😲 But I hear you, if the plants aren't happy in the space, they aren't happy in the space 🤷🏽♀️ That's why, despite my LOVE of calathea and birds of paradise, I will never own them. They aren't happy here so I admire them from afar ❤
Great video my poor plant die bc of neglect so they purge themselves. I had 70 plants now I have five. But I think 20 is the goal. If I can. Keep 20 alive the house will still look great. Plants make a house a home.
I’ve been thinking about getting rid of my melano too. I just don’t like the growth pattern and I’m not in love with it. I’ve tried for almost a year now. Oh well 🙇🏻♀️
This video was so good and i love your videos they are so good i hope you get to 100K before 2024 and thank you for posting about snake plants and baby spider plants that really helped me grow my spider plant and snake plant so thank you so much for that!
Omg I need to do this SO BAD. So so bad. I have so many plants that just don’t bring me that joy anymore but idk why I feel so damn guilty getting rid of them. Btw! I gave my mom my lemon lime philo and I miss it so much! I can’t find one either. Wanna trade????? Lol I live in California but I’m so down to trade! 🥰🥰🥰
So funny, I was just thinking of purging some plants from my collection so this video helps me feel like I’m not alone🙂💚☮️
Don't feel bad Kat, someone will love them a lot. If only I was in your friend pool, I would have loved that Rhaphi. 💚🌼🌺
I miss these sit and talk about your plants videos!
Trust me, if you cut the asparagus fern back all the way and keep it moist it will 100% comeback with new shoots, they have a very robust root system.

This video couldn't have come at a more perfect time. OMG, thank you.
I agree - tough choices sometimes. 😢
Thanks for inspiring me to follow through and do the same. All the best with your remaining planty family!!
thanks stephen!!
I purge based on care requirements and how cohesive the plant is with the rest; tbh giving away plants brings me as how joy as buying them.
not me watching this when i am planning a spring clean .. key word .. planning
I just reverse porch pirated my plant buddy. Left BOXES of plants. 😂
that is exactly what it's like being friends with me
Awwww…Hope you find great homes for your purged plants. 💚✨
A purge has been on my mind recently. Thanks for these tips!
For the Albo - could you chop it up into cutting for a bushy version? You’re strong!! Thanks for the video!
Just walked through my door impeccable timing.
this one is dedicated to u then
Nice. I should try this as well

i love the concept of "purge themselves"
@@GoodandPlanty we can't let our plants run our lives ;) no stress just joy. Plants are for pleasure.
Love it when people normalize losing and rehoming plants!
