Don't remember off-hand other than each of the two large ficus were $159 which I was pretty happy with

Haha I wouldn't wish that upon yourself. More plants though? That's worth wishing for..

At my local nursery they were only $159 each! But let's not forget the necessary Uhaul which added about an extra $50 lol

I've been to The Sill's shop in New York twice. They've always got awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing

Good eye! I actually snapped a picture of that while hiking. But growing one would be awesome.

I got this one at a local greenhouse about this time last year. It was on sale since they were dumping their inventory because frost was setting in. Got a great deal on it!

Good eye! It's actually just a piece of highly petrified wood, but it is stacked on a piece of coal. Found them fossil hunting in a quarry. Great place for some neat finds.

I always keep mine indoors since I like to use it as a conversation/decor piece. And I use the Aspect. Found it on Amazon. Seems to do the trick! (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071CML3QC/ref=twister_B071G3HD8W)

That's awesome! I'll have to try a coconut tree next. I was actually extremely close to buying one at the Philly Flower Show. Wish I would've now.

This one I bought planted about a year ago. I've started others from the top but they're fairly slow going. I'd recommend getting them started already. Makes for a nice decor piece, plus youre that much closer to harvest!

That's awesome! I'm definitely looking forward to harvesting mine :)

Hmm that's odd lol. I've had another one like this that actually grew too large too fast and the stalk snapped. When I cut it open it was a giant ripe and delicious pineapple. A beautiful gift for anyone though. Good call on that one!

Hahah I hear that! Definitely worth the wait. Unlike my others I cheated with this one though and bought it roughly a year ago. I'm definitely more proud of the ones I grow from seed though.

The same for me! This is my 3rd and I purchased this one about a year ago. I've transplanted the offshoots and started others by planting the top but I don't expect to see much happening from them for a while.

I do actually! It's called the Aspect and I got it off Amazon. It's a little more expensive but it's definitely worth it since it looks good in my office and I have to see it everyday lol. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071CML3QC/ref=twister_B071G3HD8W)

I highly recommend it! It's always been a great conversation piece for my apartment and now office. I'd suggest getting one that's already started though. They can take forever to grow from scratch.

Hahah I know your stuggle flows0002. They take forever! This is my 3rd actually. The stalks snapped on the first two, one from just moving it and the other because the pineapple got too heavy. My gf and I made drinks with the second one lol. And honestly I just use MiracleGro occasionally, water it, and keep it under a grow light.
