BEST Rare and Unusual Houseplants for BEGINNERS!

[@Fyralynn]

I gotta support the Crystalinum claims. It was my first 'rare' plant. Bought a whole humidifier to keep it alive. Long story short, humidifier broke and my Crystalinium is curbstomping my Clarinervium in terms of growth and size.

[@kristengrotton6977]

I am totally obsessed with my longboi and darkboi shirts! The style is chefs kiss perfect! I wear them all the time 😉

[@SparkleInMoonlight]

Me too :-) Even non-planty people say that it´s very cool design

[@Planty-Mandy]

Variegated Burle Marx for sure! It grows like a weed. Others I’d recommend are the Florida Ghost and the Jose Buono.

[@gypsylee333]

I finally pulled the trigger on getting a monstera albo cutting, it's rooting up nicely in water so far 🤞🏼

[@maggielandrey7232]

Goodluck!! I love mine. Hope you love yours too 😊 💚

[@LimeyKat]

I love my thai. No fenestrations yet, but I think it will soon. Got it cheap on etsy last year.

[@natalkawienerova6415]

Pretty please, can you talk about your pest control routine? I'd love to know how you do it Love from Czech republic

[@LulaMae21]

I have a philodendron sp. Silver/ Columbia and it's survived a lot of neglect while dealing with health issues the last few months!

[@Nadjaaxz]

I like the IDEA of a verrucosum but yes, spidermites. all. the. time.

[@lindaedwards4632]

I have quite a few of your suggestions and they have been easy care 😀🇨🇦

[@Indusxstan]

This video packed in so much! 🔥 Bravo Kaylee ❤

My monstera adonsonii didn’t get the memo about the stable variegation. I got a small cutting last year and it quickly went all white so I chopped it up. I had about 6 or 7 props and only 1 came out with any green. 😭 I also saw Plants by Melissa going through the same thing with hers except she got all white and Wild Fern had the same issues. They both completely lost the plant cause everything was white. Maybe it’s just the genes of the plant you have. Also with the raphidaphora tetrasperma it seems like the variegation can come back after a few green leaves. It’s been very unpredictable. I went and got another more variegated one cause I thought the first one I got was reverting. Of course as soon as the new one arrived the old one popped out a variegated leaf. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Anyway thanks for the content! ❤

[@sunnyl7821]

I have had 2 adansonii albos do this exact thing. It’s very frustrating. My adansonii Aurea however is perfect.

[@Womynxx]

@@sunnyl7821 yes! So frustrating! I’m hopeful about the one prop that survived. It only has 3 tiny leaves but there’s a good balance. 🤞🏾 That’s good to know about the aurea though. If it doesn’t work out maybe I’ll try that one.

[@karenmyers9146]

I have the el Choco red and it gets spider mites constantly. I have to spray that one and my varicosum once a week.

[@heybagley]

I don't know if it's still an unusual houseplant but my Mottled Syngonium (or Syngonium Mojito) is such a low maintenance plant that grows so fast like no other plant in my collection. It's TOUGH. AS. NAILS.

[@mylovecassie4ever]

Yay! A new video!🥳

[@treesinpots3291]

I've had a different experience with variegated adansonii. Mine keeps going all white especially when propagating. The tetrasperma has been a beast. One of my favorites.

[@ADAMJAMESFEDORUK]

I have a Burle Marx Variegata. It was already reverted when I got it. I've tried propping it to get the variegation back, but no luck. It still looks nice plain green though and it does grow really fast and props easily.

Philodendron splendid has been great

[@irisbloomz]

Do you have any experience/ thoughts on Philodendron Golden Dragon?

[@natashathomas5350]

It's the way I cannot keep a Gloriosum alive at all. I've tried 5 times now. 😅

[@eflan3453]

Yeah, I've killed a couple gloriosum but my plowmanii is a bombproof weed. I've forgotten it to the point the leaves are dragging on the ground, water it and it'll just carry on with giving me bigger leaves. It does not care.

[@j.jennings3618]

I’m hunting for a variegated Chiapense no luck. Super expensive now.

[@jasonxxxxx555]

anthurium crystallinum , monstera mint, monstera albo, licuala grandis palm, they most beautiful plants on earth, no other anthuriums can be more beautiful than crystallinium, no matter how expensive and rare others, but cant even compare to crystallinium, in my wish list is mostera mint, in this video one leave monstera mint its just blows my mind, other wish plant is alocasia friedeg veregata, its jus a masterpiece , i thing is hard to take care, even no veregated so beautiful

6:06 I have two albos and I live in Central tablelands of Australia and they aren’t rare but they are more uncommon The Thai? I got my first one for almost $150 on Etsy a few months ago and now they occasionally show up in Bunnings. I’ve gotten two from Bunnings. I want a mint and I have an Aurea. I love monstera😊

[@smajliiicka]

Both mentioned being sold at bunnings and Mitre10 in nz, too... Pat on the back to MPI and the nurseries, yet normal person still can't get stuff from overseas without selling their organs on black market... The way the mono/duopolies play role here is fascinating 😊

[@KayBX]

@@smajliiicka No albos at my local Bunnings. :). I have asked and they’re not being sold anywhere. Maybe very very recently:). I have two albos and four Thai lol. One Aurea. I really want a mint. One day.

[@smajliiicka]

@@KayBX the market got flooded about 3 weeks ago, 5-7 leaves at approx 350-500, urban roots currently selling variegated tetrasperma for 900..

[@KayBX]

@@smajliiicka I agree too. When I say Bunnings I mean in Australia at least. Lucky :). I paid $180 for my first Albo with two leaves. Now it’s putting out its six leaf. My second one was $85 because I was going to buy a low variation and try and get it back by chopping it down and then I’ve got a higher variegation for $85 because the sellers husband chopped down the one she had for sale LOL

[@KayBX]

@@smajliiicka I might have to ring my local but I will not pay that considering I already have a few. I’m going to cut mine down once I get Big and mature enough :). I do want a large form Albo though. That one is very uncommon. Now for a Tetra variegated? That’s expensive.

[@ghostofash]

Hey what do you think would happen if you crossed a climber with a crawler?

[@oktszu4198]

Glorious is great example 😊

[@botanicalbeech8533]

Honestly the mint isn’t going to be a money maker, you can get tcs for under 100 now. By the time growing it out and propping (and if like me growing out the prop to ensure it’s a plant) the prices will drop even more. I do love the mint but I am just waiting it out for longer until it’s like the Thai In the US that is

[@smajliiicka]

Cool, in new zealand you still pay arm and a half for cutting...

[@MrPerson101]

Crystallinum x Forgetii was my first anthuriums, and it definitely kicked off an addiction 😂

[@natureofmorocco697]

I like 👍

[@morningstar8187]

If you can buy a plant online without ever leaving your house, is it really rare?

[@viktoriabackeus7610]

If you buy a seedling that's a hybrid it's unique so, yes?

[@purple-lavender]

I like it ❤😅😂

[@plantypittsburgh]

I can't find a crystal, so I'd definitely say uncommon in the realm of houseplants. They're not anywhere here.

[@DAWN-YT835]

I have monstera deliciusa

[@lucyhyde8171]

Feel a little like these videos are very samey now - and also you only ever feature the plants from your shop. These are top ten that you have and are stocking, not top ten of all that are available in the world. Just feels very narrow and dare I say a bit lazy? Or maybe just badged wrong - could be top ten plants I sell that are good for beginners…

[@JessU892]

She makes it clear these are her opinions from her experience. I would prefer her telling me about plants she knows, not reading what the internet told her about a plant she's never seen. That makes the info she shares much more unique and valuable than AI generated internet descriptions. That would be boring to me.

[@Yulia-z5i]

I agree. These are the ones that are in the shop, and it seems that there is not much new addition or expansion to the rare Anthuriums/rare Alocasia/other Tropicals.

[@crzyplantppls]

The woman is running a whole business and KZbin channel with weekly content, I think that's so far from lazy 😅 Sure, we may see theme repetition, but that's a lot of channels. She can't really speak on plants she hasn't grown or doesn't have and recommended them to viewers in good faith, ya know?

[@manda1123889]

I think we can appreciate you criticism. But this is def good for her business. I just love seeing her beautiful face 😂

[@Wendy-zl8kv]

@@manda1123889 agree!!!

Never been first comment, LOL! Finally a video for exactly my situation: plant noobie with a really strange taste and little room on my studio 🥲 (goal: the rarest of them all as long as I really REALLY like them) 😂
