@PlantyGal05 2 года назад

My sister started rooting plants with her students. When we cut back our plants her students get the cuttings and grow full plants! We usually start them with pothos, succulents, spider plants and heart leaf philodendron. Then during the second half of the year we get them some more “rare or collector” cuttings like scindapsus, monstera, rhaphidaphora tetrasperma, adansonii, philo micans. She and I recycle our nursery pots and slip pots to the kids. They love it! In an area where kids do not get exposed to plants, or growing or really even nurtured themselves, it’s a great thing for them because it teaches them so much.

@joycetheobald1717 2 года назад

Out of all the different online communities, plant people are the most kind and helpful. I have plants older than my oldest child (26). My kids now have their own houseplants that they care for. It's a "family tradition". 😘

@jimc6694 5 месяцев назад

I know this is an older post but I want to chime in on your comment. I have found that plant people "use to be" very generous and willing to share knowledge and plants....as I still dom Howecer, the newer plant people seem to thinknit is a "get rich quick" scheme. In my area they are selling individual pothos, etc nodes for $5 and up and not even rooted. To me this is a scam and gives the plant community a bad name.

@YoSpiff Год назад

Someone in my neighborhood has a plant swap stand in their front yard. It's been pretty lean recently, but now that we are well into growing season, it is filling up. I got several cuttings today and a full grown Chinese Evergreen that someone donated because they didn't have a good place for it where it was happy. I think it will do well on my back porch. I left a couple of ficus elastica cuttings.

That’s so funny about aloe smelling like BO. I remember very young, I was in Jamaica as a white girl from NY so you can imagine the sunburn😂. The lovley local mama used the aloe plant from the house and I can so distinctly remember instantly the BO smell! Followed by pain relief

@namebrandmason Год назад

I have enough pups/cuttings off my aloe/snake plants/pothos that I'll freely give them to people who offer me a container. At this point the pots are worth more than the plants in them.

@Mari443Garrett1 2 года назад

Wandering jew and sedums also are so easy to propagate and share. I got cuttings from my sister 2yrs ago. Now she lost hers and she got cuttings from my plants this year.

@marsf4883 2 года назад

Plant swaps are the best, and my local plant shop has a section where you can take a cutting, and leave a cutting. The shop also provides a repotting service too which is nice. Free plants are the best, but still not as fun as meeting new plant friends :P

I want a spider plant so badly. I know it’s a basic plant but it brings back childhood memories💜🖤

@YoSpiff Год назад

I have one a friend gave me as a handful of spiderettes about 4 years ago. Oddly it isn't putting out any babies of it's own yet. My understanding is these need to be rootbound first. So maybe I used too big a pot and it is still growing into it. Maybe this year.

@creech444 2 года назад

??? I've always run into the thing with snake plant water props, that the fancy ones, come back with just the standard species. For the fancy ones though, there's always lots of true pups. I also kept getting these odd grass-like baby plants in some f my pots on the floor. Turned out they were baby spider plants coming up from seeds. Those will come back as the green ones. Another whole category of plants you should never have to buy is tradescantias, they grow like weeds. Then there's the plants that you can grow from leaves, like all the kalanchoes and even the begonias. /with begonias you just need a pot in a plastic bag and you can turn one leaf into several babies.

@elenaw5781 2 года назад

Yay great video! I totally agree with all the plants you listed, with the exception of maybe snake plants. A lot of people have them, but in my area at least they seem to be much more of a commodity. Maybe because they are super slow growing and there are a lot more types, as opposed to aloe which also grow slow but they all kinda look the same lol

@BeccaDeLaPlants 2 года назад

Oof you’re right, they are slow growing. If you’re willing to have a little one, it counts 😂

I have like 10 golden pothos. And I've only actually bought 2 of them. The rest have been propagated by me. I have a 10" hanging basket i got for $13 and I've. already taken cuttings from it twice. My oldest golden pothos we're cuttings i stole from my neighbors 😂. I think it's ridiculous how a 6" golden pothos can cost you over $10. A 6" pot should cost you no more than $8
