    I recently went to the us and did the exact same thing at Walmart and Trader Joe’s, looking for rare plants is just so fun, also even if your channel is supposed to be about plants I personally watch your videos because I like you as a person and your life update is really something that I do care about and I think a lot of your viewers do!

    Life is an adventure. Live your best life and never worry about people’s intrusive questions, you already share so much with the community. Your new plant zone in Grand Rapids will be so much fun to explore.
    Thank you for getting the message out about the benefits of therapy. I think everyone should awaken to its positive contribution to our overall wellbeing.
    Keep Growing 🌱,
    Shane 🙂

    I also started therapy recently and will probably get medication soon. I feel that if it wasn’t for plants idk what would have been of me. Tbh plants are my inspiration to live and the first reason for me to get better, because the idea of not being able to care for them is something I couldn’t handle. That’s not an option for me.
    In this process now I found accepting my emotions and whatever sensations appear to be the best practice. Accepting my humanity and being thankful to be able to change my perception about things as you said.
    I don’t know you Ashley, but I want you to know that I love you so much and that I’m very thankful for your content and for who you are in essence. I’m very happy that we are having the courage to take care of our health in this time again.
    Thank you for sharing your experience. Honesty is very important.
    Let Love guide us through every challenge of life and teach us what we need to learn from it. I believe there is a hidden gift in every challenge. Let’s look for it.
    Have a wonderful day ❤

      June 2, 2022 Jesus Christ healed me of 50+ years of complex PTSD due to childhood sx abuse, all sibling suicided, near deaths by guns/knives by criminals 3x in RX, loss of most if my vision due to bilateral retina disease and my clinical PharmD career 6 yrs ago. 62 yrs old now.
      I am alive and had no idea people lived like this!! My world is in color now!
      My joy overflows daily.
      No meds, no nightmares, no flashbacks, no anxiety, no feelings of persecution, inadequacy, worthlessness and defilement.
      No more praying for death.
      I. Am. Alive.

    I always love watching your planty videos Ashley, and share your enthusiasm for plants. I recently moved too and know how stressful it can be. I must not be very observant - I never noticed any differences, I’m just glad to hear you are taking good care of yourself and staying healthy and happy.

    I found a Hoya Krohniana splash and a Hoya lacunosa Snow Caps at my local Lowe's. They looked pretty rough, seriously overwatered. But, I bought them anyway. For the prices, even if I only could salvage parts of them, they'd still be a bargain. I don't usually repot plants immediately but these were so wet and in such inappropriate media, I really needed to do it.

Thats what marriage is all about compromise!! I will miss the Charlotte plant updates especially at the Cactus Club!!! What are we to do??? But best wishes to you and your husband on your journey in Michigan with your plant babies!!! Cheers to good physical and mental health ‼️😊😊. I will still be watching and supporting as Mikey Cyrus sung in the background of your vid as Lowe’s saying she can buy herself flowers‼️‼️ Poetic indeed ‼️

    I will miss the mad dashes to our local Charlotte stores for the latest Ashley big box find. I know it's an adjustment to live in a different climate, but I think you will love it there. When you just need some green space time, head to Horrocks or the Meijer Botanical Gardens. Thank you for all you've done for our Charlotte plant community.

    You are a beautiful woman Ashley, and you look phenomenal!! I'm seeing more and more popping up about therapy and how mental health is equally as important as physical health. My early career was in mental health counseling so I'm certainly a believer , altho I never was a "therapist" I've certainly benefitted from it!!
    Keep up the good work!! Glad you made the move safely and enjoy your upcoming trip!! Looking forward to videos from abroad!!😂❤

    Hi Ashley, Thank you for this fun plant shopping video! I was surprised to see the Variegated Hoya Wayetti at Home Depot but thrilled. I have one but four years ago when I picked up mine at Pike’s I would have been beyond thrilled to come across this Hoya at a big box store! Many thanks for sharing some information about your personal journey and for caring enough to make sure we were not too overly concerned about changes in your life. You are always more than thoughtful and it’s one of your most desirable personality traits. We/Charlotte will miss you being local to our City but the good news is that you will still be posting good plant content. And once again, thank you. Wishing and your family the best of luck in your new home! Take care. 👌🪴🥰

    @929jpotter 3 місяці тому

    You’re awesome. 💖 Thanks for sharing. We all feel close since we watch you all the time, and it feels like we go shopping together. I’m shocked people have the (lack of training?) nerve to ask if you’ve taken any medicine. Good grief. 😮 It seems we’ve become a culture of ask anything we are curious about, whether it is our business or not. I think most of us would benefit from therapy at some points in our lives. Big hugs to you.
    Exciting to hear about having a designated plant space for when you’re visiting! Will you do any videos from Michigan as well? Best wishes with this next chapter!

    Great plant tour of the local big box stores! I’m always on the lookout for a plant I didn’t know I needed 😂 Taking care of yourself, physically and mentally, is the key to a more positive life!! But why people are mentioning your weight seems a little intrusive. Best of luck on your move move, Ashley, and finding a fabulous new plant community 🪴

    Great episode.
    I’ve pushed away from plant buying a lot this summer trying to cultivate a better outdoor space.
    That being said I hope you focus on some of that on your European travels and Michigan! Wow. Even they have tough winters I heard /seen here on UA-cam what a great growing zone it is! Especially check out Jack Barnwell on the island up there!
    Personal Note: even though the channel focus is plants you’re still part of that! I appreciate your sharing. 😊
    Especially since it’s such a positive thing. I need to take better care of myself too and ai have been considering staring therapy as it’s become a part of my healthcare plan.
    So go on and live your best life!
    Can’t wait to enjoy your new adventures ❤

    I hope your full time transition to Michigan goes smoothly and that your plants adjust without much fuss. When I moved back to the Bay Area from Arcata I only had 130 plants, so kudos to you for making an even longer trip with over 200 plants. I also wanted to share that I got to live out a planty dream of mine and bought several Phalaenopsis orchids from Trader Joe's in a single trip. They're going to be centerpieces at my wedding reception next week and it was a lot of fun to fill up a cart with beautiful orchids.

    Grand Rapids is a beautiful city, and Michigan is a neat state (I’m from the Midwest, and most of my family is in the upper peninsula). Exciting new chapter for you. And good for you taking health (both mental and physical) seriously- thanks for the reminder. I keep putting off both parts, and it’s time to get serious myself!
    Can’t wait to see what this new chapter means for your channel, I’m sure it will be amazing as always!❤

I'm sure you're going to do great in Michigan and keep up the great work I love your channel I love the work that you do and I wait for your videos thank you again🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank goodness you are fine health wise had me at the edge of my seat thinking you were sick. I did notice at the very beginning had you lost weight so dramatically fast.

    Congratulations on your big move. A. long distance relationship with your spouse Is really hard. We had to do that for about 6 months and it wasn't for us either. You'll know where all the great plant stores are in no time. LOL. Headed to HD now! I've been on the hunt for an Iron Cross Begonia but can't find one. Question... do you do anything proactive to treat your plants from big box stores for pests when you get them home? Many times the plants in Lowes or HD have spider mites... or the ones around them do. I just had the same thing happen at Costco this morning. I always isolate but I'm wondering if there is a downside to washing them with insecticide soap when I get home. Thanks again. Your videos are so informative.
