I think you did really well with your "imperfect" plants: I have bought plants that were sold as "perfect" but had similar amounts of damage. I have a ficus sagittifolia in a hanging pot in an east facing window. It is trailing nicely although the stem splay out rather than hang straight down. I have found it to be quite a thirsty plant and quick growing
Hi, thanks for sharing - yes I thought the same, I've had plants in other boxes or even seen/bought them in shops with similar 'imperfections' at full price, so happy with the ones in the box. That's useful to know for the ficus, I'll make sure I remember to water it! 🌱
Hay you're back ! Hope all is ok, and you got a great plant haul ! I just worry about pests on mystery boxes, and also getting duplicates of my collection. You did great there and did you have additional postage to add to the price too? Welcome back and thank you for sharing your bargain box 🌿🌿
Thank you! Yes had to have a little break as there was a lot going on and just didn't have time for videos, but I will be getting back to making them and focusing on the plants. Hope you and your plants are well too 💚 Good point about pests, I suppose you can't check the plants beforehand as you can if buying in person. I think I've only had one instance of a plant 'contaminant' coming in (Artillery Fungus) from a box, but others have been OK (and I've had quite a few!). That is a good point - no postage on this one as it was part of an offer with free postage. However, usually it is something like 3.99 or 5.99 for expedited. 😊
Hi, it has been a while (longer than intended) - had lots on and just didn't have time for videos but I will be making many more now. Some of the plants did get a bit neglected too so focusing on looking after them and continuing to grow the collection - which I'll share on the channel 😊
Thank you 💚 Had a longer break than intended, just ran out of time for videos as there was a lot happening at the same time but all sorted now, so back to focusing on the plants and making more videos 😊
yippie your bacK!
Aw thank you 💚 I had a little break due to lots of things going on and didn't have time for videos! But now I intend on making many more 😊
