Memo I’m absolutely delighted I have found your channel 💚 your videos always make me happy and I can’t help but laugh with you! I wish I knew of rescue boxes in Canada, what a wonderful chance to get some nice plants that need a little love ♥️
The best bit about the rescue boxes from the Rare Plant Shop, aside from low cost, is the fact that you are getting a lot of plants to work with for your money. Even the forgettii had a lot of chonk to work with. Hopefully they will do some more rescue boxes, because I will definitely be trying to get one ☺
We have a special place in our house by the exit under the mailboxes, where all the neighbors put things that they no longer need but are too good for the bin. Normaly books or children's toys, usually someone will pick them up and if they stand there longer than a week, they will be thrown away. I put my banana plant there the other day. Everything was OK with the banana, it was big and healthy but somehow I didn't like it and needed space for another plant that I would rather have. I've never seen anyone put a plant under the mailbox and to my delight it was gone the very next day. I plan to put there a few other rooting experiments of mine. I don't bin any plants because of cosmetic damage, but sometimes you just lose interest in certain plants and somebody else is happy to have them.
Hey Faina, that is so cool, i think Belgium or Luxemburg does something similar, I vaguely remember a conversation with a friend years back, that this is a thing. It is so cool!!! I know exactly what you mean, sometimes you can just fall out of love with a plant, but there is usually someone there who will love it. 😊💚🌿
This is amazing 💥 I love it! Thanks to the Plant Rescuer an Kaylee. So many plants that have potential go in the trash, it’s really sad. This is a great way of saving those plants an getting them to ppl that will genuinely love them. Great unboxing! 💚💚💚💚
I love the idea of this as someone who loves rescuing and rehabbing plants! In Australia quite a few shops have things called an 'Ugly discount' where plants that are ex mothers, struggling, damaged ect and I ADORE getting those plants! It's the best way to get rare plants on the cheap and when they do well they take off like a frog in a sock. If they don't do well you haven't wasted a fortune.
Hey meikahidenori 👋👋👋 aww that is so cool, even better that you can get mother plants, those are so difficult to come by and if you can keep them happy, usually you can get really mature leaves quite quickly. Goooooo Australia 👏👏👏👏😊💚🌿
What a great idea to sell rescue packs. Where I live we can get sad plant boxes. I don't know if that is the same idea. I am quite sure that the first one is a philodendron atabapoense because I have one and mine looks identical to yours. Please let us know how they are doing later on.
Hey May 👋 ohhh I like the sound of the boxes you can get where you are, they sound like they might be similar. Ohh good to know on the atababoense 🙌🙌🙌 thanks I will do an update soon 😊💚🌿
There is a shop in the States called Orange lake nursery that has a rehab bundle box. 3 rehab plants for $8.99 and they now also have an "exotics" rehab box 2 rare plants in need of love for $29.99 I ordered 1 of each box and it should arrive tomorrow. I kinda like the excitement of not knowing what I'm getting. I can't wait.
Awww that is so cool and nice to see that Tracey is already on the second box, there is such potential to not only get some cool plants but also help reduce wastage along the way 👏👏👏😊🌿💚
This was a very good offer. It´s great that things like this exist. Sadly from my personal experience in the Czech Republic, very often the plant not looking great is due to pest damage (thrips, spidermites), often with additional bonus of alive pests in the pot too :-( 80 % of the times I buy full-price plant here, it has some alive pest present too. When they are on discount, it tends to have 95 % probability of pests. So I can´t even imagine that there would be a plant rescuer box without pests, or the plant simply not looking great for any other reason - that would be so wonderful 🙂
I’ve had pests from Czech shops, too. One shop in particular. If you’re near Prague, you could come to our plant event (FACEPLNT) on June 24 at CafeDu. :)
@@tanya.quintieri I'm in Prague, sending greetings 😊 I several times bought plants in 4 most well known p Prague plant shops and got thrips and spidermites with the plants from all of them repeatedly. Because of that I lost trust in buying plants from plant shops. I'll check the event 😊
I love the idea of rescue boxes. We have them in the Netherlands as well and I got 2 rescue nepenthes for the price of 1 non rescue. And good plants with minor damage.
Hi Memo great unboxing! Can’t believe I got them all right! Yayyyy🎉 in fact gobsmacked when I said Jerry horn before you did 😮 Obviously keep us posted 🌱💚
Es genial el rescate de plantas , me parece lo mejor 👍 , toda o casi toda 😜 forma de vida , se merece otra oportunidad , aqui no hay rescate como tal tu nos muestras pero si que yo tengo muchas de mis plantas , obtenidas por este metodo o parecido , hay una tienda en mi barrio de plantas de la que soy cliente y amiga desde hace muchos años , que cuando tienen plantas que van a tirar a la basura me las regalan , no siempre puedo acoger todas en mi casa por problemas de espacio pero la verdad que todas las plantas que me regalaron por ejemplo, orquídeas sin flores , Calatheas en malas condiciones ...etc , puedo decir con orgullo 😉 , estan todas estupendas , algunas tardaron tiempo de mejorar pero al final , todas estan ok . Ojala que mas gentes se animaran a rescatar o dar una segunda oportunidad a las plantas ; las plantas como nosotros, no tenemos que ser perfectos pero en esa " imperfeccion " esta la vida , la belleza . Un gran abrazo 👍💌
¡Muchas gracias por tu maravilloso comentario! Estoy emocionado de que aprecies los esfuerzos de rescate de plantas en mis videos. Es increíble cómo estas plantas pueden prosperar con un poco de amor y cuidado. ¡Tu propia experiencia al rescatar plantas es inspiradora! Esperemos que más personas se unan a nosotros para darles una segunda oportunidad. Te envío un gran abrazo virtual y agradecimiento por ser parte de nuestra comunidad amante de las plantas. ¡Sigue con el excelente trabajo! 🌿🌸
Orange lake nursery has rehab boxes. I think they are in Florida and ship nation wide. I just ordered both rehab boxes from them am waiting for it to arrive tomorrow. 😊
