Kaylee Ellen- this monstera cutting cost me 5,000€
Nick- this plant cost me less than a coffee and a sandwich
I love both youtubers and it just shows that houseplants are such a good hobby for anybody. You can chase the thrill of hunting down rare plants or fill your home with a bunch of little green friends.
@B.R. V. I’m paraphrasing. Kaylee Ellen doesn’t always give exact prices on her more extravagant plants
The first plant you showed what was the name again I really liked it !
Definitely my fave plant UA-camr! Would you consider doing a video of plants through the decades? I’ve heard you mention in different videos some plants that were popular in the 70’s and 80’s and I think it would be super cool to know how the trends have changed!
I'm remembering my parents Creeping Charlie that I loved and it was popular then. It's so funny but I was watching Threes Company and Janet works at the plant shop and a guy that she liked came in to ask about Creeping Charlie's and to talk about ferns and it was so cute. At the time I was obsessing over both so I got excited. He says there's something so mysterious about ferns lol I was like yes there is lol
My nans chlorophytum shed had longer than me and I'm 28
Ok, THIS is a great idea!!
I'd love this! Great idea
@@kellykittinger5969 that’s so funny because I’m totally obsessed with ferns. It might be the spiral or the fact that they’re basically the most ancient of plants but I totally agree with the mystery of them! Another one that went through a craze was spider plants maybe in the early 90’s? I remember seeing them everywhere in offices and such
Pothos is SO underrated. It is such a great plant and I think that's one of the reasons people are ho hum about it. I always have a pothos growing in my house. I remember Mom having one back in the 1960's. A great plant.
Just today I've googled how Golden Pothos looks like in the wild. Found out that they never reach their mature form in our homes, and that their mature leaves can grow to be 90 cm (2,9') in length. My respect for those plants is now combined with dread :D
I have one in my shower on a shelf (I have a shower window). It really makes taking a shower that much better.
I don’t think pothos is underrated, literally everybody has one lol
@@beautysfnm everyone has one, so they discount them as amazing plants. So common, yet such beauties!
Your one of my favorite UA-camrs because you show these more common plants not just the "rare" ones that are way out of my reach. Common ones are so less fussy and just as beautiful.
I remember the plants my mother kept. Nostalgia, not fashion. Yeah, they were all common inexpensive plants.
This!!!
True!
Do I click "thumbs up" before even watching the video because I'm that confident I'm going to love it? Yes. Yes, I do.
I found a bin filled with plants in 6cm pots. They were 5 euros for 3 plants. That was such a good find. Great for a beginner plant parent.
No guilt if the poor things dont make it either!
"Trash Babys" are in my opinion the best anyways so it's like no loss if they don't make it
I found a gigantic basket of marble queen pothos with leaves as big as my face for $12 at the grocery store. I love it so much. Great video!
Discounted plants can also be a great way to save money when starting out! In my experience if you know how to spot a healthy plant you can definitely find some good ones for a few dollars in crappy pots
my top list of cheap easy plants (Europe) is spider plants, jade plants, any of the basic monsteras and pilea peperomiodes. With spider plants being my absolute favourites because they are dirt cheap and could probably survive both nuclear winter and a big bang.
And they give you more spider plants.
Spiderplants you probably can get for free from a friend or family member. 😅
Aloes are also extremely common and easy to get in central europe.
A good place to start is at the 2€-section in plant shops. You find a lot of nice succulents there and sometimes they have stuff like african violets, hoyas or peperomias too. Not only are they pretty cheap, they also are small and so fit on even the smallest widow sill.
And of course grocery store plants. Not only those marketed as house plants but also some of the herbs are really nice.
My first plant that survived and was bought by myself was a peppermint. Lived trough several years until I decided to bring with me to my parents house and the dog ate it.
what is your secret because mine hates me!
I just was given a spider plant and that baby literally doesn’t care it’s winter!! It’s still growing like crazy!
@@LisaMarie-br8tn bright indirect light, water when the soil is dry (but not super "bone dry") and change soil every 1-2 years.they're pretty straight forward. Ours haven't been fertilised for decades, so I think if the soil is ok, you don't have to. Temperature is also not that important as long as it's not freezing...they grow better when its around 20°C plus though.
i think you brought up an important point with the first plant. always check the annual section of the garden centers. so many house plants are sold as annuals for half the price, just because they meant to be thrown out at the end of the summer. its worth waiting for Spring for. Also its worth trying different things that are not house plants per se, but at 5$, or even 2-3$ when annuals start going on sale, its worth it.
Thank you for highlighting other plants that are both different and inexpensive on your channel...it’s refreshing to see planty content that doesn’t include the rarest of rare plants that may not be as attainable. 💚
I agree with you about the pothos ! They have so many varieties, they're super easy, and hearty. BUT be warned , you will get addicted to collecting them (:
I absolutely LOVE pothos! I definitely think they are underrated
My budget plant obsession right now is the silver squill! I found a 4
Inch pot with about 6 bulbs in it last spring for $5. They multiply like rabbits, they do great outside in pots is spring, summer and warm fall (Canadian prairies) and the flower stalks are so dainty and adorable! Highly recommend.
LOVE seeing "asparagus ferns" i've got a giant one taking over my computer desk and I never see them getting love in plant videos
Are they difficult? The 'fern' always sends me reeling...but I love the look.
Good info, Nick. I would add coleus to this list. I grow mine in pots on my porch during the summer and at the end of the season I take cuttings and root them in water. Then I pot them up and keep them inside through the winter. Come spring I put them in pots outside. They are beautiful.
I have 3 of the plants you've shown. The scindapsus pictus argyreus, the golden pothos which is my oldest plant, ive had since 1980! and one of my newest is the Tradescantia, which has a lovely purple white and green stripes to it. Chlorophytum are also an inexpensive plant and I think pleasing to look at as well as being low maintenance too. 🌿
My argyreus for blight this winter and had to let it go. It was so awesome!
Perusing the YT for videos about plants sees that Nick dropped a new video.... Throws the brakes on and clicks on my favorite plant UA-camr. 🌱
I have had a ruella for the last 2 years I take it outside in spring and bring in for winter. This year it bloomed profusely in November and December. One of my favorite plants. I also have had a asparagus fern for several years beautiful, and huge some of the vines are 6 ft long. You do need to watch out for the thorns they can be nasty. But worth it. The golden pothos is like a old friend would'nt be with out at least one easy to propagate and I love to give them as gifts. The pilea is another. plant I love I always have a frog statue under mine. Love your channel thanks for sharing
“Come here to the Philadelphia area, but don’t because of COVID” 😆
Yes, please don’t!
Hi from Philly, my name is joe!
Golden pothos was my gateway plant to collecting more plants 😆
Great Topic! Some of the most beautiful plants I have were inexpensive when I purchased them. I'm turned off to the overpriced hot demand plants. Plants are not supposed to add to my stress level
I got my dieffenbachia for one pound from Morrisons. I got all my cacti including the rare ones for less than a fiver. The most I've ever spent on a plant was my nepenthes for 8 pound. I live in northern scotland
Oh Nick there is a scindapsus satin frenzy and you can't get it. Lowe's doesn't carry it in the cheap pots anymore. You gotta do costa farms Trending Tropicals and it's a 4" for around $17! It's crazy. It's selling out everywhere. Plant peeps are hunting them down in my area. plains states.
Check your Kroger’s (or Kroger offshoots). I’ve seen them there in small pots for $12. I’m in CO
Living in Miami, 'Houseplants' take on a new life outdoors. If the 'Golden Pothos', whose leaves are usually uniform, is allowed to climb a palm tree, its leaves grow increasingly larger. At about 8' off the ground, the leaves are the size of garbage can lids and split, like a Monstera. Asparagus Setaceus drives me crazy, choking everything out. I'll dedicate a day to just digging up rhizome bases. 'Polea Peperomiodes' = 'Chinese Money' plant. . . . Love the info!
“...this thick, chonky vine...” (sigh) that was a happy moment. 😁
#lovethisguy
I LOVE my boat lily (rhoeo, oyster plant, etc lol) I kept it outside this past summer for like 3 months - didn’t even check on it - and she was THRIVING
Hi, I'm from Philly and live abroad in France. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you so much.
Tradescantia! Yes! I just love this plant also! So beautiful!
Same with my tradescantia! It started leaning for light and is all lopsided, and then I thought it was dying because the leaves fell off, and then a bunch of babies showed up! Glad that's how it goes and mine wasn't being accidentally abused 😅
Pilea grow so fast once they get comfortable. It's so weird though, I've only noticed growth after I've potted them into a larger pot. Their roots are so minuscule! It's almost like they're happy when the pot is wider
Your videos are always something to look forward to after working nights all week. I love how you keep it 100% real.
It's interesting how different people think of plants in different parts of the world. Here in Northern Scandinavia, the Asparagus Fern is considered a low light plant and ideal for our climate. I have mine in the middle of the room in a Northern facing living room in a house above the Polar Circle where the plant almost doesn't reach any of the grow light from the bedroom where I have other plants that require natural light in the 4 months where the sun doesn't rise up here. My Asparagus is 20+ years old, large, and thriving. I never let it completely dry out and don't apply the rule that most Plant UA-camrs have for their plants about letting them get bone dry and then soaking them. My Asparagus is always moist and gets routinely water and so does all my plants. Only the succulents (yes we can grow them here with grow lights and snow-reflection light) gets to dry out between waterings.
That’s really interesting. I’m glad you shared that. I don’t always consider how living in different parts of the world would affect placement.
@@spa-peggymeatballs4861 It's also a matter of no choice. We WANT indoor plants. Humans just want things. The sun doesn't rise for 4 months in the winter and then we have the Polar Nights where the sun doesn't set all summer. So we've found plants that can survive on grow lights, hibernate in winter (asparagus goes dormant), can survive conditions they aren't made to live under, have acclimatized to decades as houseplants outside their natural climates, etc.
could you do a video on things to know when choosing a plant from a plant shop? like what are some things you look for when shopping for plants in person?
i may not be nick, but some things i look for are new growth, roots that aren't bulging out of the bottom, i give them a blow to see if pests move, and i check how moist the soil is.
I love, love, love❤️ watching your videos. You’re honest and enthusiastic!
I have a huge blue star fern. It's in a stinkin' hot window and it is loving life. The colour is amazing and they look so good backlit. Grew it from a small plant. The love light and heat. It's one of my favourites. Ferns get a bad wrap. Wish people would get into them more.
Tradiscantia is an amazing plant. It will propagate infinitely, can't be over watered and can be cut down to nothing and will grow back. And in top of that it looks amazing, the purple undersides of leaves are amazing. 👌
We have such a problem with plant flippers in my city. Unless you get to the store as they are unloading the plants you can't get decent priced ones.
We’re experiencing that here for the Moonlight scindapsis from Costa Farms. People snipe them at the store and then sell single leaf cuttings for $10. That’s insane to me!
@@kaciestarz plant grifters are the worst, ugh
@@IjeomaThePlantMama I agree, but I get it. They see an opportunity and take it. I just don’t have to participate in it! 🤷♀️
That's what I do: I ask the management when their next plant shipment is in. I was doing it primarily to get the plants before the store staff had a chance to ruin them with their horrid care. Now there is the added advantage of beating the plant flippers to the stock.
Of course the flipping will end soon on plants mass produced. It can't last at the rate of production. It would end sooner if the people paying the ridiculous money expected from the price gougers would just knock it off.
@@bkrbkrl There are some people that do that, I just can't get in there before the plant flippers. I have a full time job and kids. Its so sad because all I really want is a Hoya carnosa crimson princess, and I can't even get one of those unless I want to paid 2 to 3 times the typical retail price.
Keep saying costed! Those little personality quirks are what make you individual and fun 😀
I correct everyone’s English in my head all the time it’s a habit I picked up when I taught English as a foreign language and mistakes do bug me but THIS kind of mistake is adorable and I don’t correct it I adore it and decide I’m going to say it too
Love your #1 pick! The Ruellia makoyana is a wonderful plant I have had for over a decade and I'm surprised it is barely ever mentioned. It is bomb proof - the best beginner plant I can imagine. When it droops, just water it and it comes back like nothing happened. The flowers are bright fushia and gorgeous, and it blooms almost continually. The seed pods explode so you will find little brown seeds several feet from the plant. Mine has planted itself in this way in many of my other nearby plants. Easy to propagate from cuttings in water, just like a pothos. Love love love! I'll have to try a couple of the other ones you suggested, especially the Tradescantia spathacea "variegata". Thank you!
I have asparagus fern growing in pots outside all year. I'm in northern Indiana. I've had them outside year round for 3 years now. They are still green and beautiful even in the middle of winter with snow on them. Such a tough plant
Reo - what a survivor! I really neglected my Reo, but it always regenerates. One thing that this plant hate is cold...
I'm so happy to see that Tradescantia! I've been waiting for an update on that since I first saw it. Thanks Nick.
I haven't seen your video yet, I just turned on the computer to do some things from work. I will most def watch it tonight. But for the mean time I just wanted to say that on the preview of the video I can see that you are going to talk about Ruellia Makoyana. I can´t wait to watch this video. I love Ruellia Makoyana however i find it to be a difficult plant and for some reason here in Guatemala, I have only found one nursery that sells them. Or probably not any more since I bought them all from them. Hopefully in the future you can do a video dedicated to the plant because I can´t find much information about it. Everything I find its the same thing but no one expands more on the plant. Anyways, see you tonight, I mean, I´ll watch your video tonight.
i have a pilea right next to my north window and it’s doing AMAZING. i’ve had it for about 1-2 years and i already have 4 baby plants that popped up next to the mother plant and it keeps making more!🌱
Love watching, I always see a plant I haven’t seen before. Thanks for sharing 😃
I have a ruellia makoyana too, it has grown SO well and blooms beautifully in the fall! Bought it for 2 € from the local botanical garden a couple of years ago, the cuttings take really well.
Thank you Nick! Your content is my favorite. I was so captivated by the story of your Tradescantia!
I have found my asparagus fern LOVES to climb (to my surprise)! He grows so fast when he’s climbing/vining!
Great variety today. So interesting seeing these uncommon common plants!
Yesterday I saved a peperomia from Home Depot because you speak so highly of them. I love him and thank you for the suggestion! 😊
i picked up 3 primulinas last summer from hirt’s ( poor packing, damage, generous refund) and one is blooming now. (hotei) SO BEAUTIFUL! so easy!
tetragona is my fave pep of the 5 or 6 i have, no hope is my fave...no tetragona...arrrgh!
Thank you for the tips on lower priced yet wonderful to grow plants! I do love great finds ! This summer has been a bounty of great finds. Our wonderful plant tent that I love to visit for fruits and veggies and plants, added a succelent sections this year. In that section of small plants I found gems that added 4 new peperomias and 3 hoyas. The plants were all unidentified, so I had to go through page after page and check them all to get my identifications done. I still have a couple plants I can't pin down, but that's part of the fun . I also try to find the bargains at big box stores. I scored a a Euphorbia 'Briar Patch' for $2.78, an epiphyllum- most probably one of the red day blooming varieties- for $4.98. They may be bargain prices, but they are healthy plants. Love my bargains!
Nick, please get affiliate accounts with Amazon, Home Depot and Lowe’s, etc. Provide a list of your favorite plant products in your video descriptions with links to each item. I want you to make more 💰 💕💕💕
Listen to Bex! Post some affiliate links!!
My grandma just had potted Boston ferns outside in her porch and we live in south texas so idk what kind of magic she’s using
Philly was long ago now but fun to follow your plant vids. Now Pasadena and desert plants.
I audibly gasped when you showed your asparagus fern!!! how ADORABLE
Love the blue star fern. My little one is coming along nicely. Boston fern I grow outside and in fall bring it in to my cool basement under fluorescent light water about every 7-10 days and spring take it outside repot and it gets massive. Crispy wave fern is my fave. Easy, big and beautiful. Thanks for your 10 picks Nick. 🇨🇦
Nick in the plant store, ooh nice foliage!! Purple underside to the leaves. Yeah you are coming home with me.
Bringing back the oyster plant! Haha great video as always, Nick.
I went to my local grocery story today and found a pearls and jade pothos! I have never been able to find one in person in my area so to find one for $4 was great! Its crazy how different the rarity of plants are depending where you live. I have a scindapsus that I had to pay good money for online.
Can you do slightly expensive plants that are worth-while?
One of my favourite plants is a corkscrew rush I bought for 3€ and then put it in water. It looks so special with its curly grass and thrives in water or leca!
I live for the asparagus fern. I had seen it a couple times, but the fern part freaked me out. Eventually I got one, and its been so easy, fast growing, and I'm just obsessed with the look. 15/10 plants, and one of my favourites 💕
Nick, I really enjoyed your video especially today with your humor and knowledge. I don't care if you say "costed".
I remember seeing your video about Philodendron Birkin, and I found quite a few of them at a local nursery for $8
Also, I'm curious that you've never mentioned Tradescantia Pallida! They are absolutely stunning, super easy to care for, easily propogated, and make great houseplants :)
Such great selections. I really appreciate that you give affordable options that are also beautiful
I think as far as I remember all of my plants except my jade cost less then 10 dollars so far.
The jade was a little costly because it's already a very full plant. I need to keep an eye out for peperomia though, I don't have any and you've inspired me!
Gifting and trading plants is also so much fun. I've got a lovely thriving monstera for free.
Great list. I'm able to find small monstera deliciosa for under $10 in my area. I always suggest this plant for new people because its lighting conditions are not that fussy, you can watch the plant's progress with the fenestrations and it can easily be propagated.
You're making me feel like a guilty shit for ditching the asparagus fern my ex's mom (🙄) gave me lol. I honestly hated it's thorns and temperament. Not the vibe for my space lmao. Yours looks so freakin nice though 🤗
I love my golden pothos!! It is on a shelf in my kitchen. No windows but an overhead light and it’s just living its best life
Great video. You are so knowledgeable and great at sharing that knowledge. Thanks for sharing!
Always watching for your new videos. ♥️ from 🇨🇦
I love my Ruellia Makoyana “Monkey Plant” so easy to grow. Mine has bloomed!
I am so glad you talked about the tradescantia. I have it and thought I was killing it too because it’s lower leaves are turning brown and dying but I do see a little pup! So I’m glad I’m not killing it and hopefully it will look like yours sometime in the future.
I got a Tradescantia Nanouk at my local grocery store for $7.95. Liked it so much that I went back for a second one within a couple days. Growing like crazy for me. Just recently got a Pilea Peperomioides about a week ago for just over $7. Really looking forward to what these two (three) will look like in about 6 months.
I just found that silver satin.. $3 each in a 3in pot... I'm really excited to watch it grow!! And trail...........😘😘
Hi Nick! I do have a couple of the plans you showed, the Scindapsus Pictus Argyraeus and the Golden Pothos. I'd really like to find an Asian violet and a blue star fern. I really like tradescantia's, but haven't had good luck with them. They always get really leggy and not so pretty. I don't think I have enough light for them and I haven't tried keeping them pinched back. I may try one again sometime. I love the form of your Asparagus fern. It has a kin of bonsai look to it. I may have to try one. Thank you for sharing another fun and informative video!
My best budget houseplant tip is grow some from seeds for exaple right now i grow some pelargonium from seeds its really fun to se them from the start but it does take a long time :)
Another great video Nick
Beautiful plants Nick - gr8 video 👍
I had a plumosa that died on me. It was completely yellow and flaking off like mini hay for a good 8 months. Just as I was about to throw it out, I decided to cut it down and give it one last shot. Started growing new shoots in less than a month. I love it! It cost me around $15 - and is now a size smaller. But hopefully it'll eventually grow back to it's original size.
I had a plumosus and I found out that it doesn’t like overly rich dirt . I had to flush it several times to get it to do well . Dollar store dirt is horrible!
I’ve also got the big one the A sprengeri. That is a tough plant!
in morocco, where i live, all plants cost less than 10$ and plants prices higher up depending on the size of the plant 😅
I think I will try my hand at that blue fern and some of the others mentioned. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks again for introducing us to different plants.
Me : genuinely curious at how ive kept my boston fern healthy and hasnt dropped leaves since i got it. Im afraid when i move ill lose it
There's a sweet Amish family I used to get my plants from in Lancaster and I'm so eager for it to warm up a bit so I can get some more! We've all got a Lancaster plant hook up🤣
Well thank goodness for Gary! Over in York I see those blue tags everywhere.
Thanks for talking about more affordable plants
Hey Nick!! Love your videos, especially because you go into such detail on every plant. But, I was wondering if you could boost up your audio a bit? I find that your audio is quite low and I sometimes have trouble hearing it even at full volume (in noiser areas). Thank you!
I have the transdanita moses plant and I love it. I've given so many babies to my friends. I love mine
I like the theme of "plants that are not sold as houseplants that can be houseplants"
My Hawaiian Ti is shooting new growth out where the leaves died and dropped like your Tradescantia. Looks cool!
I've actually exchanged my Scindapsus Argyraeus for a bunch of bananas earlier this week :D For some reason it just didn't want to grow no matter where I put it. But I love my Cissus Rotundifolia. I purchased it after watching one of your videos because I fell in love with its simple, happy vibe. It wasn't easy nor cheap to get it here in Czechia - it cost about the same as Philo Birkin (and that's quite a lot over here). But it was worth it :) I have it under the grow light, and it's just started to reach my ceiling :D So I thank you very much for that great tip
I visit a nursery where they sell all kinds of plants in 2 inch pots. Many of them are affordable at that size.
My biggest issue with the Pilea is that everyone and their grandma is selling babies on Craigslist/FB Marketplace for $1-$5. In theory this is fine but everyday I go to search for plants and there are always sooooo many Pilea cuttings spamming the results.
Ugh I really hate to see cuttings being sold, especially common plant cuttings. I get that it's a time to hustle, but I'd just feel so weird getting money for something I have an abundance of. I'd rather trade cuttings for another plant to grow
Such great content Nick! Keep it up!
ur bleached hair is so adorable🥺🥺🥺
I love that blue star fern and love ferns in general. The queen Kimberly is hardy and so beautiful. I was scared to get a maidenhair but it's still alive and I got it on Christmas so crossing my fingers I don't forget to water for one day lol but the blue star is gorgeous. I want a rabbits foot too.
Third!! One of my fave plant UA-camrsssss
Love this trend affordable plants. Thank you
