i started my plant journey during a deep depression in march 2020 and stumbled upon your channel after searching on youtube how to propagate a monstera (my only plant at the time). i fell down the rabbit hole and binged watched all your videos and it became a light in my day, because you're always so upbeat and friendly and my plants just gave me comfort and calmness. life has improved so much since then and my (now 30+) plants bring me so much joy as well as both of your channels! thank you for everything becca
I love what you called 2020 "deep depression" I believe we all can relate to that. Anyways I'm happy things are looking up for you and I hope we will be done with the "deep depression" ASAP lol
Kendra!!!! What a beautiful comment, thank you so much for following along and sticking around. I’m so glad you’ve found my channels and they’ve been helpful. ❤️❤️🌿🥰
Yesss to all of this! Here's one of my top tips for beginners: expensive plants die the same as cheap plants. Start out with inexpensive plants that you like before you go for rare or pricey plants! Then when you inevitably kill a plant, it'll be a 2-10$ mistake instead of uhhhh, way more money. After you have the skills and confidence, you'll have a much better time with your wishlist plants.
Absolutely, this is the way I've been trying to think. It's led me to buy a lot of baby plants in tiny pots that need a lot more care but actually even that is great for learning.
I did this but because I was cheap and KNOW I am bad with plants and know my 10$ plants look like they could be 40$ plants🤣🤣. Except my pothos. It's struggling
Succulents love me!! I never water them and they just grow and grow. I started with a small inch plant named Merta and now I have a beautiful Aloe named Aka and a snake plant named Fred. I just bought my cactus and another multiple succulent hanging pot. I'm so excited to get more varieties of plants. I want some pathos and other Vining plants!!!
@@fructose589 OMG my peperomias hate me. Yet my 5 melodramatic, PMSing Calatheas are doing great LOL! And I'm a new plant Mom. My friend just decided one day that I should be a plant person and bought me two Calatheas. Like WTH
So awful to hear about that plant seller being dangerous and misogynist! I’m glad your privacy is more protected with a P.O. box. Thanks Becca for speaking up and sharing about this issue. I hope it protects other women from this sorta trauma.
I started my plant parenthood in June of 2020. Covid collector. In the 8 months since, I have gotten rid of the plants I didn’t connect with. Killed only 4. Built an ikea greenhouse and started collecting Aroids and making my own Aroid nix. Currently, maxed out at 40. This journey over the past 8 months is not at all what I thought having plants would be like. Love it.
Thank you for helping out those of who are a newer to the hobby! I've owned houseplants for years, but only really started learning, researching, and buying lots of plants in January. I love the idea of meeting folks in real life and making friends through plants, once the pandemic has gotten better.
Omg I’m so shook hearing that online experience. Never could I imagine the depth of deviance! Thanks for putting it out there that we need to be cautious and careful even more than we may realize. I’m a true believer in listening and feeling you intuition.
I love how deep you get into each topic. The honesty is really refreshing. I related to so many things you said. I'll definitely be tuning into more videos by you. Thanks for all the info
omg I tried with 3 different polka dot plants and was JUST thinking about getting another one to try again but no. Thank you for being my sign that it’s ok to not try again with it!!🥺
I only buy what I fall in love with and I do research on them also, then I decide if I want them or not. I do not follow competitions of trends or price, is what I feel in my soul that I bring home, that way I know I will be dedicated to it.
I have to honestly say. Your the first UA-camr I’ve come across that hasn’t made me feel horrible about killing plants. Your really encouraging to us new plant moms. Not that the other UA-camrs put us down. But they just show how awesome there plants are and say what they do lol but nobody ever talks about the stuff you mentioned how sometimes these plants do their own thing, or maybe we picked a plant that just needed a little more care than what we know,..long story short. Thank you. This made me feel more encouraged to keep pushing on at this plant thing.
I've been watching your channel for a month now and have finally found plants that work with me. I ironically live in CoMo. It's great for me to learn about plants from you because of the similar zones. I am even more excited to learn more from you. Please keep doing you ❤❤❤❤
It’ll be one year of collecting on Monday & I am barely at 26, waiting on 2 more that are coming in the mail but I do agree that collections need to start slow! I can’t wait to have hundreds 🥺
I'm the person who went from 6 to 40 in two months...but im disabled and have nothing but free time...so far I have only killed a Rex Begonia, Moondrop and a handful of succulents! Lol 💚
I can't tell you how important my local plant community has become for me this year! I joined a local FB group full of fellow planty people, and have been able to not only trade some of my plants, but more importantly meet others who share my love of plants. Even if our meetings are brief and socially distanced, just being able to connect with another human being after spending the last year plus in isolation has been SOOOOO good for me. I didn't realize how much I'd been craving that interaction, I'm a very introverted person by nature, but I find myself reaching out eagerly to others when I think I can either give or trade plants with them! I can't wait until we can come together as a larger group and have plant swaps. It's the light at the end of the tunnel for me. I'm so excited.
That is so amazing!!! And so fun to have local friends - it’s so nice after a year of isolation. I’m also introverted but am starting to crave connection again haha. Big hopes for plant swaps this year!
So I'm a new plant nut. I really took to heart your advice (thank you) about not buying every plant at once (anymore). I went to Etsy to remove the new collection from my shopping basket feeling full of resolve! It took me a while (I even added a couple more) but eventually, I literally closed my eyes and hit the delete button! Did I say delete? Nope, it was the buy button I hit. Darn... 🤭
Becca!!!! Im so glad and thankful that you exist. Your energy and wisdom is such a flippin gift. Also your hair looked amazing in this video. I love the bangs, but im diggin them pulled back!
I RARELY comment. With that said, I had to with this video. When you said something about how buying a bunch of plants causes a lack of efficient connection with the plants. This happens to me! I introduce too many plants sometimes and then I just kinda don’t have a bond with them yet which isn’t the best thing! 🤧🥲
I am so picky about the plants I buy. I may every once in a while buy one in the spur of the moment, but it's always one that speaks to me. It may seem irresponsible of me, but It's like love at first sight without considering their care right away. But I have always been prepared to adjust somethings and it's nothing inconvenient since all my plants are together in my library. And I think they enjoy it. Sorry went off on a bit of a tangent! But thankfully I have only had 3 casualties, two of which were not my fault, and one was not to happy a our moving. ( I literally grew my plants in a basement without grow lights and low light, but I only say that to express how I think plants are really strong and if you are in tune with them... they will love you, bc all of mine were thriving even my bird of paradise, the she was by the small window ) Lol, that was long, but I love your videos and you plants look lovely!
Loved this video!! Just purchased a few houseplants/cuttings and trying to stop myself from fully diving in head first. I have many succulents, pepper plants and some flowers but houseplants will be a first!
I hang around reddit a lot and what worries me are people who buy plants blindly and then come and ask "can I get an id?". I think the best recipe for success is thinking about the kind of environment you have (or can have with supplemental equipment) and then buying accordingly. Like I get that plants are beautiful and you feel like picking them up the moment you see them, but it's gonna end up in a heartbreak. Personally I have a small apartment that's not super bright and is pretty dry year around, so I can't get monsteras or other huge aroids or tropicals that love humidity. Long story short, be realistic about your environment and research plants before you buy.
6:01 it's so true! great point 💚 plants for sure are communicating and are hoping for our presence and observation individually - just like having too many pets and then the quality of care degrades for each
Super late to see this but in the video you talked about being new to Columbia and how you haven't been able to grow polk-a-dot plants. Idk if you have tried in MO yet but I live about an hour from Columbia and have had some polk-a-dot plants for a while now, they are doing great. If you haven't tried here, might give it a shot.
Yeah... I just started this hobby and I have more plants than I ever thought I'd have in a lifetime, let alone within a month. (I think I have about 14, not including my husband's extensive bamboo collection.) I have a list of plants I still want to get, but I'm trying to pace myself with it. (Trying and kinda failing, tbh...)
Great video, Becca! Yes, you have to learn which plants work for you. I found that these plants don’t work for me because I have low humidity and unknown other criteria: croton, calathea, Aglaonema, homealomena Selby, Rex begonia, echevarias (except agavoides), birds nest fern, philodendron mayoii, peperomia ruby cascade, peperomia hope (no hope for me). THere are more in the list too. Now i do have a problem trying to place the plants that work so they look good in my home. I probably should reduce my plant collection....nah. Also, propagating back up plants so getting at least two of each.
THANK YOU!! I have been looking for a way to find other plant people in my area! I can't wait to check it out. But I will watch the end of your video first. LOL And yes, polka dot plants don't do well in my house either. I am currently killing a few myself.
I almost made the impulse mistake of getting a monstera this weekend and I knew it was not for me. I don't have enough light space or time to take care of one. I love my succulents, and I'm just going to stay in my lane lols.
My bf got me a cathalea when I was just staring to buy plants and humidity wasn’t even in my radar. Killed her after 3 months, tried to rescue her but was too late. For a minute I remember saying "this is not for me, I can’t buy more plants". It’s been a year and I have 100+ plants and they are doing great, just bought a new one because I feel ready but I know if she dies I won’t beat my self up.
Okay, plant community, I bought a Tinke Rubber Tree, it was so beautiful, but now, not so much. The leaves on the edges are all brown, almost like they burnt. HELP! I changed the soil, so it was draining with a mix of Perlite, cactus soil, and potting soil. I have it in a clay pot. Water( tap) once a week. I had it near west facing window, and now a North facing window. I ordered a grow light...I just don't know what to do.
I started collecting plants because I like to be in the forest. For my disappointment some plants didn't do well in my place. Than I started to look around offices and see what plants made it there on the past 10 years. Sheflera, Dracena, Ficus Elastica,Spider plants... So I just copied other people and finally some jungle started to form.
Oh no. Wait I just brought my dream plant... for like $400 and it's my first big plant I only have 2 other potted plants what do I do then how do I not kill it?? I mean it's not an easy plant to kill? Is a thai constellation monstera, it's 3 years old so like it won't die easy will it? Oh god now I'm terrified
I stopped buying Fittonia plants as I eventually realised that I am just not able to understand the plant's needs. I killed many...too many. But I love the plant, all the different varieties and colours
Crocodile ferns fail for me every time. I just killed my third and I finally promise to never buy one again. They thrive all summer then die by the end of winter every single time. I simply don’t have the right humidity and don’t want to buy humidifiers or enclosed spaces for plants. It’s a bummer but reality!
that plant behind you.. i always wanted it but it gets infested all the time ... thinking about getting ride of it cause it already damaged another plant :(
I died when you were personifying plants 😂😂 but honestly same, I’ve been trying to really to cut down on my collection because I feel guilty for playing favorites! I wanna say I love my children all the same 🌱🌱
Who else at some point felt like she was talking a bout relationships when referring to plants not being for everyone XD I was like wait. Are we still talking about plants?
I feel like a lot of this could be read as a metaphor for relationships - after I read this comment, I couldn't help but read into the rest of the video through this metaphor 😂

I love what you called 2020 "deep depression" I believe we all can relate to that. Anyways I'm happy things are looking up for you and I hope we will be done with the "deep depression" ASAP lol
Sending all the love!!
Kendra!!!! What a beautiful comment, thank you so much for following along and sticking around. I’m so glad you’ve found my channels and they’ve been helpful. ❤️❤️🌿🥰
I did the same with the incredible Summer Rayne Oakes (aka Plant One On Me) she is a piece of heaven

Me looking at the very angry Norfolk pine on my table 😒 🤣
me looking at my very finicky alocasia amazonica.
i feel attacked lol

Monstera adensonii is the bane of my existence!
I love the look she has today
Braided bangs are a 10!!! 🔥
Thank you!! :)
straight fire
I’m learning that Hoya and cacti are my jam aka I’m a chronic underwaterer 🥲
Heck yes! Whatever works 🌿
and see i love this!! we all have a theme according to our environment, my house has not many windows so i stick to lower light tolerant plants
Succulents love me!! I never water them and they just grow and grow. I started with a small inch plant named Merta and now I have a beautiful Aloe named Aka and a snake plant named Fred. I just bought my cactus and another multiple succulent hanging pot. I'm so excited to get more varieties of plants. I want some pathos and other Vining plants!!!

“It will be different this time” looking at my FOURTH monstera slowly dying across the room. Idk but they really hate me?
What kind of monsteras are you getting hon? Like how old/big are they?
This was a fantastic video for all the new plant mom's out there today. Your so good at explaining the good the bad and the ugly in our plant world.
Thanks so much ❤️

I'm on my last one LOL!

Just in time!! I’ve been buying a bunch of plants recently that I’ve never owned before, I love this video🖤
Does she ever comunicate with all her subscribers? Ever? I love this girl but I wish she'd be a little bit more personal
Hi Diane! I try my best to reply to as many comments as I can. It can be difficult sometimes since I work full time and so this on the side.
Mia - so exciting!! Good luck on them all :)
Everything you have said is the absolute truth! I wish I knew these tips 18 months ago.
Good video Becca! All these things I’ve experienced too. Always so genuine thank you plant mama!

About the polka dot plant, it grows better as an outdoor plant, it needs crazy amount of sunlight.
Yes!!!
I am so picky about the plants I buy. I may every once in a while buy one in the spur of the moment, but it's always one that speaks to me.

I totally agree. I still struggle with that. But the large leave in my small space is a problem. Makes sense.
Yes!! I cried when I got the shot because I felt SO relieved!!
Great info! You're very mature and mindful! Thanks
Great video and I just purchased your book a few days ago. Even though I'm not a "beginner" and have other books, I really like your book...good job!
Loved this video!! Just purchased a few houseplants/cuttings and trying to stop myself from fully diving in head first. I have many succulents, pepper plants and some flowers but houseplants will be a first!
Working many many years with plants, we always used fitonia in spring, summer container mix’s. They do great outdoors through till frost. 💚😃
Oooh great idea!!
Just started our plant journey so excited! Great video!
Lots of good information here Becca. Thank you for sharing 👏🏻
Thanks for watching :)
this was extremely helpful! wonderful and in depth information and tips 🥲

I always love to watch your channel Becca just realize I did not subscribe 🤭watching from Jamaica
Great tips and info! Thanks! 😊
Coming from the reptile community it seems like you guys have similar issues. Glorified Hoarding seems to be a common thing
I started collecting plants because I like to be in the forest. For my disappointment some plants didn't do well in my place.

Oh no. Wait I just brought my dream plant... for like $400 and it's my first big plant I only have 2 other potted plants what do I do then how do I not kill it?? I mean it's not an easy plant to kill? Is a thai constellation monstera, it's 3 years old so like it won't die easy will it? Oh god now I'm terrified
Thx for everything shared. Engrossing video. Luv yr dog
Thank you :)
Something important i learnt a few days ago: you own a plant, the plant doesn't own you. Just wanted to share this ehehehe! Thanks for the video
I took the plant parent quiz and she got it so right. Laughing so hard rn
Where do I find it?
Could you link it?

Thank you! 💚
This is eye opening
I stopped buying Fittonia plants as I eventually realised that I am just not able to understand the plant's needs. I killed many...too many. But I love the plant, all the different varieties and colours
Ugh that’s one that I’ve killed sooo many of too
Your almost to 50,000 congrats!!!
Thank you!! 😭🥰
Great video
Crocodile ferns fail for me every time. I just killed my third and I finally promise to never buy one again. They thrive all summer then die by the end of winter every single time. I simply don’t have the right humidity and don’t want to buy humidifiers or enclosed spaces for plants. It’s a bummer but reality!
I have to agree with all 5 of them..
❤️
Missing you in Tucson Becca!!!💚
I miss it soo much!!!
What a wonderful video!
Thank you!!!

Yup, spider plants 🌱 are so-so for me.

I died when you were personifying plants 😂😂 but honestly same, I’ve been trying to really to cut down on my collection because I feel guilty for playing favorites! I wanna say I love my children all the same 🌱🌱
Lolol!!! Definitely have favorite plant guilt too 😅

Who else at some point felt like she was talking a bout relationships when referring to plants not being for everyone XD I was like wait. Are we still talking about plants?
HAHAHAH omg. Honestly a lot of plant lessons also work for humans!
I feel like a lot of this could be read as a metaphor for relationships - after I read this comment, I couldn't help but read into the rest of the video through this metaphor 😂
I have zero luck with diffenbschoa
Yay a Tucson plant person... Sorta. 😁
