2023 Plant Wishlist & What I crossed off my 2022 wishlist

[@terry3651]

That's quite the wish list, maybe the puppy dogs can start a channel to help pay for the plants on the wish list. 😃😃 Sounds like you're happy with last year. Need to figure out the next it plant and stock up the shop with them. You do have a nice assortment of plants on your etsy shop today. Congrats on being a star seller.

That’s the goal! I try not to add anything that I wouldn’t see a return investment on. Thank you! It’s actually surprisingly difficult to be a star seller! (I’m my opinion anyway) thanks for watching!

[@Samual_Jones]

We don't need the dogs having a channel. They are already full of themselves!

What a nice wish list! I love the Hoya Imbricata. The other plants you mentioned are gorgeous as well. I am hoping to grow my Hoya Eriostemma collection....-)

[@queencitytropicals]

I had to look up the Hoya eriostemma it looks really neat! Thanks for watching!

[@DimaculanganPunch]

I definitely feel that! I walk past my thai constellation, and I smile and laugh like crazy. 🤣

[@queencitytropicals]

I love that! A good Thai constellation never gets old!

That serpenssss! 😍 Just got one as a gift from my wife. But sadly it was a Squamicaule. So I had to tell the seller and thankfully they realised it was a mistake. So now I’m getting a serpens from the same seller on TOP of the squamicaule. The gift became a double gift. Going to be a one leaf cutting with a shoot though. Can’t wait to see it grow as big as yours 🤩 And the Bipennifolium is becoming hot here lately. Called Violin Variegated. It’s the kind of leaf shape that takes some time to grow on you.

[@queencitytropicals]

Wow that is awesome!! I was trying to decide between those two when I ordered the Serpens! That’s so exciting that you’ll accidentally get both!

[@mhzplantingaroids]

@@queencitytropicals Yup! Despite their little differences, they still have their own set of beauty. So no complains 😁

[@cherylsignor9646]

I have a few Hoya that I suspect have flat mites but have put off treatment because of the smell. Hubby has been fine with me filling up the house with plants, but making it smell like rotten eggs is a line I don’t think I should cross! I think I might wait until spring when I can spray outside. I hope you will film your experience treating your Hoya.

[@queencitytropicals]

Oh that is a really good point! Husbands might like the plants less when associated with a rotten egg smell 🤔🧐

[@kathleenwarner4046]

I've been using sulphur spray for several months; no discernible smell , imo.

[@queencitytropicals]

@@kathleenwarner4046 that is great news! Thanks for sharing!

[@cherylsignor9646]

@@kathleenwarner4046 That’s good to hear! What brand did you use? Did you spray indoors?

[@kathleenwarner4046]

Once a week with Bonide Sulfur Plant Fungicide. Indoors, in my laundry room sink. I live in upstate NY, so outdoors is no go rn. My hoyas are responding well. I also started using a greenhouse cabinet at the same time, so not sure which is making a bigger difference.

[@butterkayatoast]

Hey nice collection you have there! Can I ask what camera do you use? Your video quality looks amazing!

[@queencitytropicals]

Thank you! I use a Sony ZV-E10! 📸

[@michaelflynn285]

Hello. I like that thai constellation. I have an extra greenhouse and want to propagate something new. Are the monsteras good in high humidity? If you've noticed or experimented with that or not. Thanks for filming.

[@queencitytropicals]

Thanks for watching! I have found monsteras to do really well in both high humidity and normal household conditions as well!

[@onecenteredlife]

The suphur treatment sent is really not very noticeable at all! I’d say the worst thing about it is the fact that you have to be consistent with it for six weeks… That’s about it. Good luck! 😄

[@queencitytropicals]

That is really good to know! Thank you for sharing! I guess this is my sign to stop putting it off! 😜

[@elmerhernandez5810]

I sprayed my Hoyas with sulfur and wore gloves and a face mask and there was NO ODOR WHATSOEVER I was very surprised

[@queencitytropicals]

That is great to know!! Thanks for sharing your experience! 🪴❤️
