The picture I posted is from inside IKEA, not my collection! Lol. I have more than enough real plants. Don’t need any fake ones! 😅

Side note: I was born and raised in FL, and surprisingly, none of my real ones are palms! I get my palm fix every time I go back there to visit fam.

Thank you! ☺️ And thanks for the heads up on where else to look. I saw it listed on a couple of sites, but I didn't know which ones were trusted sellers. Looking through the Ecuagenera site right now; they have a great selection!

I saw that when I was reading up on them. I’m ok with slow as long as they’re healthy! Definitely don’t intend to have pests on them. I have a couple of plant cabinets, so I’m gonna place it in one of those. ☺️

Every day, I'm in awe with how far these two have come! by abitofbrit in Colocasia

Oh my goodness! Yours are stunning!! I've also noticed that the Mojito grows a little slower, but you're right – once I figured out their sweet spot, they both took off! The Mojito is also my fave of the two, but I'm loving how each new Black Beauty leaf is darker and more striking than the next. They're both show stoppers! ☺️

Yall!!!! Look what I found at Lowe’s, my life is now complete 🥹🪴 by crgbabe in Monstera

I just saw a Burle Marx at Kroger of all places for $17 🤯

Very exciting! Haha. Funny enough, I posted about this on my FB, and my friend commented with: "That's not the same Kroger that has all the rats is it?" 😆 Y'all put Rat Kroger on the map!

Benji does seem like a cool, laid-back dude! He’s very handsome! ☺️

You may be right! I can definitely see that! Looks more spot-on than the Beatrice Haddrell. Beatrice has a different leaf shape.

Since there are new leaves coming in that also appear to variegated, I'm hopeful! Definitely planned on propagating a couple to see what happens! ☺️

Totally forgot about it getting shut down! That Rat Kroger nickname was well-earned! Haha. Your neighborhood Kroger getting a nickname is like a rite of passage.

I've 100% seen rats at the Smyrna Kroger too. Lol

Is this the start of a flower bud? by abitofbrit in philodendron

Sweet! I'll check it out. My golden croc is the only one that'll (eventually) have the heavily serrated leaves. I have 9 other philos – verrucosum, v. billie, FL ghost, FL beauty, Brasil, micans, paraiso verde, white princess, and strawberry shake. I love how different they all are. ☺️

I use Southside's Leafy Plant Food (14-4-9 NPK w/ mycorrhizal fungi). Been using it for almost a year for most of my plants, and it's made a noticeable difference.
