Happy Birthday! I live in upper Manhattan and was in the flower district recently. It's wonderful and you made some real scores. Thanks for taking us along. Didn't know you were supposed to haggle, may try this next time. One store had a Florida Ghost and I want one for Christmas, maybe I could talk them down from $50. Even at 50 I would be ahead with no shipping fees and hot pack for the cold.
If you are in NYC again you may enjoy the Union Square Greenmarket which has some very unusual plants for even better prices. It's mostly a vegetable market but they do have houseplants. Union Square is open Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
Thanks again! I watch you all the time and this time I can actually go to the stores you went to.
Great advice! The union square green market is. A great place to look for plants and the quality tends to be better than what you’d find at a big box store or even the high priced plant boutiques
Thank you very much for the tips! I’ll check them out next time I go!
Yes to Union Square. I purchased to philodendrons over the summer from a vendor there
Hi Ashley! The stores in the flower district don't list prices because their main line of business is with events and corporate accounts. They don't object to selling things to individuals, but it's not their focus. It's definitely not an invitation to haggle. There are normal plant shops in NYC, though I suspect they would have appeared much more mundane in comparison. I think you made the right choice in where to go, so thanks for taking us along with you. And happy birthday! What a great way to celebrate a special occasion. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in New York.
Nice to see you in my City and glad you made it to the Plant District which has alot to offer
That succulent is a Haworthia cymbiformis Ssp. "Gold" 😁
Hope. you had a Happy Birthday 🎂🎈. Enjoyed. the. New York visit to t.he plant shops
Thanks so much
The round leaved ZZ's (6:06) are called Lucky ZZ's!! I bought a pretty large one from one of the plant stores on 28th St. and I love it so much :)
If I see prices are not clearly marked I immediately get suspicious, it feels dishonest like they’ll try charging any exorbitant price they think you might pay. You have to look at them like their silly and be like “No $50 is too much, I’ll pay $35” then the second they try to counteroffer just turn around and walk away “no thank you” and I PROMISE you, they’ll chase you and say “ok for you $35”!! 😏😏 yeah ok my friend $35 it is! LOLOL
lol yes that’s definitely how you do it here!!
Hi edagdwg love this special brithday shopping enjoy your day having fun thanks for sharing a forever fan Linda j. Peace
If you lived there and visit often you tend to know the prices
@jazzg4578 I’m a born and raised New Yorker, I do live here actually and I visit the Flower District somewhat frequently. With so many vendors, there is no “tend to know the prices” for me at least. I like clarity-be upfront. The example in my previous comment was a real encounter I had last spring.
I wish I could do this but I suck at haggling! 😂
I spent most of my adult life in NYC and 28th St. was always my happy place! Back in the day there were twice as many shops and the deals were amazing. In the spring, every shop has pallets of hyacinth out on the sidewalks and the fragrance was heaven.
Incredible!!
Yes, it was more crowded with open shops with flowers everywhere--covid devastated, but it is coming back
When you were unpacking the last plant I was like "please please please be the Scindapsus".!!!!
You were right!!
The round- leaf zz plants are called “lucky” here in Canada.
Ooo love it!
♪♫♪ Happy Birthday Ashley ♪♫♪ 🎂🎂🎂
Thank you!
Happy Birthday, Ashley! Lovely haul and the Scindapsus is amazing!!
Thank you!! 😊
Happy Birthday Ashley , I hope you enjoyed your stay in NYC!! I live here and you showed me some new places to visit. Thank you and I really love your channel!! I always say that but during the pandemic you were one of the reasons why i bought some of my plants I have now.
Thank you so much!
Yw ❤️ 🪴

Happy birthday ❤
So there is something good about NYC...😊
💚💚🪴🪴
Happy birthday!!! I wish you came an hour east to Long Island where I live! If you get the chance, I recommend Hicks Nursery and/or Fantastic Gardens
Thanks for the tips!
13:57 That Alocasia is the Noblis, a bit newer to US markets I believe but they're getting more common which I love because their shape is quite beautiful. I just got one a couple months ago.
Hi edagdwg lived in New York born in Manhattan retired to S .C. Will always love New York the Big Apple a forever loving fan linda j. Peace
Happy Birthday!!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday! The plant shops you showed were amazing! Nothing like that around this part of the country.
Thanks so much! 😊
If I see something not priced I put it down and walk away. I made that mistake at a restaurant once. Super expensive mistake.
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉
Thank you!

GAAAAAAH - happy birthday weekend! I was up there this weekend as well, and now I'm saving this vid for my next visit!
Not Ms. Ashley in my neck of the woods! Happy birthday!!Welcome to New York! 🙋🏽♀️💚🗽
Thanks lovely!! 😘
This succulent.....od lime colour...is Haworthia Cooperi. Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday Ashley! 🎉🎉🎉 What a great way to spend a day, thanks for taking us with you 💖🪷💖
Thank you 🤗
Sending Happy birthday blessings to you from the UK. I loved all of your purchases. Some of those orchids and the Philodendron Warscrewiczii would’ve definitely been on my own gratitude list! Brightest of blessings xxx
Thank you!
ALLI can say is WOWOWOWOWOW❤😊
Happy Birthday! Btw, I always use Google Lens if I'm unsure about a plant or anything in general. It even worked when taking a picture of the screen. 30:00 is a Haworthia according to Google. Never heard of it. It's beautiful.
Thanks for sharing!!
Happy birthday! I believe the yellow coloring on the haworthia is a form of variegation. That was a great find. They were all great finds!
Thanks for the info!
Happy birthday 🎁🎂🎈🎉🎊 25 is such a cool 😎 age ❤!!!!!!
💚💚
Happy birthday! Thanks for sharing this vid! I never thought of going to the flower market in NY! I will definitely go there next time I am in town!
I just got a pot of lithops that size online from a seller I buy from all the time. I think they have really reasonable prices and mine was $15 too.
Happy Birthday Ashley Anita!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🥂🥳
Happy Birthday you crazy plant lady!!! 🥂 🎂 🎈 🎉 I hope you had the most fantastic day and thanks for taking us to NY with you! That Scindapsus is beautiful 😍

🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊
It's such a fun way to spend your special day. 😊
Thank you!! 😊
Happy Birthday 🎂🎉😀🇨🇦 That silver scindapsis is gorgeous 💕
Thank you! 🤗
Happy Birthday Ashley🥳. You are in my home state,and I’m so glad that you found a plant to remember your visit. Love lithops too☺️ Emma’s garden is a wholesale nursery about 15 minutes away from me on Long Island, unfortunately they only sell to the trade.
Thank you so much!!
Happy Birthday Ashley 🎉I enjoy your videos so much.
Unfortunately the “plant district” in NYC is a shadow of it’s former self. High rents & new construction have forced 80% of the plant shops across the river to Jersey. Only 28th St (bet 6-7th Ave) still has a few original shops whereas 15-20 years ago plant & flower stores lined 6th Ave from 26th St up to Herald Square.
Happy Birthday Ashley ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Welcome to New York!😊
Thank you!
Very beautiful plant and good information thanks
🎈Happy birthday, plant lady!!
Thank you!!
Loved that first shop think it was noble plant shop, looked so perfect would love to spend time in there, thanks and happy birthday 🎈 🌾
It was!
The Noble shop is one of the best shops and the owners are quiet intriguing, I got a very healthy plumosa that I'm growing indoors, growing a lot!!! The other flower shop is the Dutch store amazing, but need to go there very early. Happy birthday everyday with thus video🎂⚘️💐
Lovely plants there. Those Lithops looks big and juicy and full never seen them like that. I wonder if is constantly alot of direct sun to grow them like that. I keep killing them from overwatering. That is good you can bring plants back have to check which countries you can do that.
🪴🪴🪴
Happy birthday, Ashley!🎉
Thank you!
How fun!
💚💚
Happy birthday 🎂🎁
Oh, I looove those plants 🙌🏻. I need the Scindapsus, like yesterday 😮
Thank you!! 😊
Happy Birthday!! Hope its been a great one!
Thank you!!
Happy Birthday! I belive it is a sansa called spoon.
Oooo thank you!
Happy birthday beautiful plants .
Thanks!
Happy birthday Ashley! 🎉 love from Bali ❤
Thank you!
Oh my. I would be inspecting all those aglaonemas. 😅 happy Birthday 🎉
😁
I missed living there I used to visit often. Another area to buy plants are China town and union square park
Thanks for the tips!
Happiest of birthdays to you!! The plant at the 16:40ish mark is a pinguicula (I probably destroyed that spelling lol). Wild Fern has been buying those lately. They catch gnats and flies 😊 thanks for sharing your shopping excursion! I’m in NC not far from you and I’ve never been to NYC so it was cool to see. 💜
Thanks for the tip!
@@LifewithAshleyAnita ooh I just realized you bought it!!! Nice! I commented before I finished the video lol. Love your haul!! Great choices! That scindapsis is beautiful!! 💜 Tamara
Happy birthday hope you have fun
I dont celebrate mine but I do go plant shoping on the day hehe
💚💚
Happy belated birthday 🎉I love the plants you bought in the big apple. I just bought a baby Scindapsus variety ‘Hask’ for $38, so I think the price for your new silver one is not that expensive.
Great find!
I believe what you thought was a snake plant may be an orchid. I might be wrong lol
I think it’s a spoon snake plant 🪴
@@LifewithAshleyAnita oh nice, I’ve never heard of that variety before. Thanks!
Happy Birthday Ashley and many more,love tuning into your videos.You’re getting closer to me in Maine😊Stay safe and Happy Holidays too 🎄🎄☃️❄️and oh,I just bought a beautiful Christmas cactus,the employee probably thinks you’re casing the joint😂😂
Thank you! You too!
Happy Birthday I'm glad you had a good time I saw a lot of plants I would love to have I liked your choices. You're husband would only have to look at some of you videos to know what to get you lol
😂 so true!
Happy Birthday ! I’m in the hunt for that scindapsus locally here in Charlotte
It’s a beauty!
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉🎉hope u enjoy🎉
Thank you!
🎉🎉🎉🪴💚🪴💚HAPPY BIRTHDAY
It's a Spoons snake plant.
I love it!
Happy Birthday:)
Thanks!
I’m curious what sort of price points you found in NY compared to closer to home. I live in FL now but I’m from SF bay are in CA. I was surprised that plant prices weren’t crazy high in CA when I was there a few months ago because the cost of living is out of control as I know it is in NY. Everything else is insane. I sold my house in 2020 and what I sold it for was crazy. Even eating in a restaurant and buying gas hurts me when I go back to visit. So I was shocked plants weren’t so out of sight.
💚🌱💚🌱💚
💚💚
Which plant store did u see the scindapsus?I will visit that plant store next weekend for sure !! Thanks for the video ❤
Foliage garden!
😬 so much black mould in that shop. I hope you didn't get sick.
Happy birthday! Is it possible to list all the stores?
They are all right next to each other, it was amazing!
Ashley! When you buy plants out of state, how do you take it home if you’re flying back? Im from Los Angeles and I’m afraid to take it with me to California because they might tell me to leave my plant to be destroyed! 😢
Don’t water the lithops. They rarely need water look up there care it’s really different
Super curious if that scindapsis is easier than the moonlight version. That one gives me so much drama compared to the other varieties. I had to chop mine up and prop it and she’s stressing me. I don’t know why it’s so hard. It takes forever to root. I’m rooting in stratum because water was far too slow.
Instead of an esceleto could it be a monkey? They look so similar. My first thought when I saw you were in NY was,Oh! She could have met Kat from @goodndplanty! I would spend daaaays in those shops! Lol
💚💚
Te acabo de en ontrar me suscribo
They always pass thru the begonias so fast no matter what UA-cam plant video it is 😭😢
I hope you let the person that thought you were a thief you let them know that you are a UA-camr.
😂
Happy Birthday 🎉
Hope. you had a Happy Birthday 🎂🎈. Enjoyed. the. New York visit to t.he plant shops
Thanks!
Happy Birthday
Thank you!
Happy Birthday!
