Big Box Store Houseplant Shopping! Crazy Plants for *Crazy* Prices!!!!

[@taneabree]

You’re so adorable, helping that stranger find the perfect monstera

[@TheWackoGreenAlien]

What I would always want to do but am too socially awkward lol

[@gabya.6156]

Meanwhile I just came back from my local Lowe’s and all they had was one thing of golden Pothos and Ivy’s and orchids and succulents not even the cool kind😭😭😭

[@theplantprodigy2010]

I once found a hoya compacta “regalis” (variegated) at my local meijers in a six inch pot for 11 dollars.

[@skyesawyer763]

Dude sameeeee

[@dylanvancamp1514]

Epiphyllums are also called orchid cacti. They are technically a jungle cactus which is why the label said cacti.

[@MsChristinaLS]

I live in Florida and my Home Depot AND Lowe’s SUCK ! Most of the plants are landscape plants

[@weareorigin]

Ohio has same issue. Some big box stores only carry a shelf of house plants.....and not during the colder months.

[@LulusLeaves]

BAHAHA "Ok, I'll make sure to google how to take care of it..."

[@taylorhughey9331]

I would die and come back to life with cash in hand if I found those monsteras in my Lowes! I’ve been looking like crazy!

[@mollysgotmakeup13]

I've only ever seen one hoya at my local nursery and it was one of those single leaf hoya kerrii. I can't believe your lowes has huge baskets like that!

[@evamariebam]

Ashley what day do you recommend to go to big box stores for plant shopping?

[@crisgon6824]

Just fyi, I've only had success with my heart leaf fern by keeping it soaked, not moist, absolutely drenched!! I'm in zone 13b, Puerto Rico, and it's still difficult. Adjust to your parameters, but they don't like drying out even a little bit.

[@anissarossington6040]

I literally may as well grow mine in water I keep it so wet!

[@ArthurGrey.]

I've had to do the same thing with my fittonia! If I don't absolutely drench it or if I let it dry out the slightest bit it goes completely flat.

[@taneabree]

My Home Depot could NEVER, which is fine cause imma rock with Lowe’s for a bit

[@sageashley]

Ommmmg that epiphyllum!!!! I just got one from Johnson Brothers here in Oregon, my new fav for sureeee!!! Love the vid Ashley!! ❤️❤️🌿 Also Reid is one of my fav parts about your channel lol.. I love her commentating and just love your guys' friendship. Beautiful!!!!

[@bryannemarkey2678]

I’ve been having the same problem with heart ferns and I’m on my 4th. What I’ve discovered is that the best thing to do, is water it like a violet from the bottom. So like twice a week, I fill a bowl and put the pot right it and soak it for like 20+ minutes. I’ve noticed that the leaves don’t curl and dry up when I do this. Hope this helps! 😊❤️ love ya

[@Noona4kpop]

That is a curly orchid cactus! I have one and it bloomed 4 pretty white flowers last year. The fruits ripened and the seeds sprouted inside because we forgot to harvest them sooner. So I planted the sprouts I could save and now I have some tiny babies growing! It’s a cool plant. They’re easy. Just give it lots of light and they don’t require much water at all.

[@NinaTeleha]

Hi Ashley! That "bad boy" palm is chamaedorea elegans, I believe 🌱 Fast growing one 💚

[@ryantedeschi418]

Epiphyllum is a type of epiphytic cacti and definitely one of my favorite genus

[@autumnwebb20]

I wish my Lowe’s had monstera at that price🥺 ours are like $65 for THE SAME SIZE. I’m just going to have to look around I assume. Love this video though!❤️

[@XTdP]

that's a parlour palm, i believe.

[@kmmmmmma]

your stores are amazing! i got a monstera about the size of the $20 ones for $13 at walmart awhile ago and i love it so much!

[@captainaddy9591]

My aunt has an epiphyllum but it seems a different species cause it's not curly like your is! Her epiphyllum bloomed recently and the flowers were white! It was amazing to see, she sent me a pic of them! I'm going to ask for a cutting the next time I visit XD

[@ameliagraham92]

Restyling Home Depot's plant display by moving that Monstera cracked me up. You certainly needed a cart at Lowe's...I have to go tomorrow and see if ours has that epiphyllum guatemalense. Enjoyed this video and subscribed.

[@weareorigin]

Thank you for showing BIG plants. I cannot get enough of BIG house plants. In 10-feet ceilings, most plants look so small.

[@felecia5873]

My Lowes is up the street from my house and they don't have half of the plants in this video.My husband is getting me another monstera deliciosa for my birthday next month and I can't wait!!! Happy plant shopping.

[@JensGardenAdventures]

New to your channel, thank you for awesome content. Im fairly new to house plants having previously over loved them I'm now learning not to do that. Thanks to you the Alcathea I bought that was labelled peacock I've now identified is actually a rattlesnake. Just hope I can keep it alive! 😁 Keep up the awesome content! Jen

[@Chrissy.Graham]

I water my heart fern every other day and it’s thriving! And mist it sometimes

[@DavidMoralesPlants]

*Honestly I wish my Home Depot can step up! Their plant selection is so sad!*

[@charlottenaomi2285]

That little palm is a Parlour Palm

[@kylebartone2976]

Lmao hearing you call it a corn on the cob cactus CRACKS me up. I’m pretty sure it’s just called a corn cob cactus but I mean, now I think I might say corn on the cob because I find it hysterical.

[@sapphireblu76]

Our HD sucks. They have Boston ferns, peace lily, a couple of golden pothos, and a bunch of super basic succulents

[@Plant_Mama]

Omg you’re so sweet for helping that stranger out ahaha, so many beautiful plants and a good selection, I want them all 😭😭😭

[@lilpinky1123]

Put your heart leaf fern in a closed terrarium!!

[@heatherst9070]

Man, a hoya like that would be $80 or more here! ( South Western Ontario, Canada) Its nuts!

[@valeriaflores5754]

I would have bought that Hoya krimson princess cuz it’s so pretty we never get anything from costa farms that are the hanging baskets

[@cata9082]

Your Lowe's has so many plants! 😍 Mine doesn't have much I just went the other day and sometimes home depot has more of a variety, I guess it just varies when you go

[@alexisrose4221]

So I ran to Lowe’s hoping mine would have the same monsteras, I see some and I run over, and it’s labeled philodendron. I know there is a split lead variety but mine looks exactly like the one you were showing and it was from Costa farms 🧐 so confused hahaha!!

[@alexisrose4221]

But it’s smaller so I don’t know lmao

[@rhaelaettner9641]

ASHLEY PUT YOUR HEARTLEAF FERN IN A CLOCHE! OR BAGGIE! ITS THE ONLY THING THAT WILL KEEP IT ALIVE! second time was the charm for me, once I put it in my greenhouse and now it has been growing for months with zero crispiness but my greenhouse humidity stays at 80%-90% most of the day

[@kanecurtis3215]

Omgggg i LOVE epiphyllum, i have a few different species but i haven’t been able to find the curly one yet!! congratulations 🥳🌱

[@tams7411]

The epiphyllum is actually a cactus! A jungle cactus to be specific. Rhipsalis and zygocactus are other examples of jungle cacti (I have a massive soft spot for jungle cacti)! (I think it's a cactus specifically because it has phyllodes [stems modified to act as leaves by having chlorophyll]. But the phyllodes thing is a guess [since I THINK other succulents have actual leaves, and cacti have the phyllodes?].)

[@Ericvamplover]

Which home depot is this? My fave plants are available. Pink syngonium. Love that.

[@knottyrootsbylindsey]

Holy crap I'm so jealous of these plants! My Lowe's and Home Depot have nothing! No Monsteras let alone an Epiphyllum! I had to just buy 2 little cuttings from the Plant Farm, which then I have to root myself, but hey I get to learn! And I'm going to buy a whole bunch of cuttings of them for my birthday to make one big pot. Girl such a good haul! That Lowe's card is getting workout but what amazing deals! ✌💟🌿

[@Garnishlifestyle]

Love your outfit and omg that monstera is perfect!!! 💕

[@emjpurple]

I am so glad you bought that monstera!!! You can never have too many.

[@aweshots9963]

Can we take cuttings without them knowing and propagate them at home??

[@PlantingAshley]

No that is theft

[@PlantingAshley]

You can actually go to jail for that, actually

[@bloodgirl4]

Whaaaat all the stores you go to get such great plants!!!

[@SuperHahahajajaja]

“Have a Lowe’s safe day” lol

[@ShadowNight-kt3dz]

Actually they are cacti. Jungle cactus like the Christmas cactus or rhipsalis. But they don’t have spines. But it’s gorgeous 😍 jungle cactus are some of my favorite plants ever. It’s an epiphytic plant naturally but can do great in soil.

[@lifepaholic716]

Cool plant shopping video and yes when you don't want to spend too much money on plants , that's the time you'll spend more 🤣😂🤣😂 The heart leaf fern loves humidity , it might thrive in a glass dome, some people just put a string or put it on s self-watering pots. I used to have one it was doing well in a terrarium until I introduced another fern and went downhill 😔. Good luck 👍

[@Damaged_lemons]

Epiphylum are jungle cacti that grow outside of soil, like on trees!

[@mtndweller55]

Oooh first time seeing my name pop up at the end 🙌💗🌱

[@goldenpothos7262]

I may or may not have placed an order for a dwarf umbrella tree without my mom knowing. I wish i could just live in one of these plant sections or nurseries

[@atsed11]

ever since I seen someone on facebook find a variegated monstera at a big box store I have to check every leaf on every monstera I come across lol

[@MsHemerocallis]

I've been living in PJs for the last couple of months (still have finals) and seeing your cute outfits has made me want to get dressed up so bad. Time to get up earlier tomorrow and put on a cute dress

[@knittinggargoyle]

my lowe’s could NEVER

[@ileanaivelisse7114]

I have my heart leaf ferns sitting in water and in a glass enclosure. I treat it like a carnivorous plant.

[@evem3434]

your outfit is the sweetest, you look so great!

[@darkstar1457]

I would have gotten exactly what you picked out.,But I would have looked for more heart ferns. So cheap. Lucky 🍀

[@ArthurGrey.]

What are the lime green and silver plants at 1:38?? I have never seen one before but I love it! 😍

[@taneabree]

Literally anyone can see me from my balcony lol I’ve been acclimating the kiddos to being outdoors so I’m constantly in and out, and in Albany, I just feel eyes on me 😂

[@kara.oz.]

DUDE! I just got a huge epiphyllum from Walmart for like $14! They’re the COOLEST plants!

[@crazy4beatles]

we need more ad hoc plant advice in the plant section

[@jacobmoreno9698]

get the app "picturethis" if you take a photo of a plant on the app, it will tell you what plant it is.

[@wassab8889]

Are crocodile ferns rare? I saw one but didn’t pick it up

[@mycurvydiaries1364]

Are you in Idaho? What location was this? I need to go buy some plants but I don’t want to drive to every location near me😅

[@shannoncarr7338]

It is a cactus, a jungle cactus, great find.

[@christinasketch]

I love plant shopping at big box stores, I found a giant monstera for 30 bucks at my Home Depot 👌🏻

[@eimanibrahim7951]

It’s an Epephylium curly sue or curly locks

[@luceroalvarez6218]

Crazy how plants in the us are super expensive, maybe it’s because you are able to pay more. Greetings from mx

[@soberserpentsable]

I have a problem with aloe. I'd have bought that's aloe!!! I just bought 2 snow storm aloe and I'm obsessed!

[@hannahparis8369]

That skirt is sooooo cute 😍

[@craigrov4031]

Okay lmk why Reid is a LITERAL ANGEL

[@cristennires1081]

I just found out the super tall palm you stood next to is very poisonous to pets. It makes me sad because I wanted to get a small one. Awesome video!

[@kfen2008]

I needed this today

[@growitright9945]

It’s a parlor palm

[@brittanyfosberg1029]

I can’t believe those giant ZZs are $79!! I bought one last week at a Lowe’s near Seattle and it was only $40

[@mckennaraulston6173]

Who else would love to run into Ashley and she volunteer to pick out the best healthiest plant you want!

[@newbotany]

Great fun video, thank you. Monstera good value for $22

[@ashleylovesleavess.4921]

Its a cat palm , parlor palm. It gets big

[@irisk1380]

Love your outfit!

[@carolh.9385]

What city was this?

[@wimbletone]

Chamedorea elegans aka parlour palm!

[@suekuly4723]

I would have wanted to buy everything, so you did very well 😊

[@texadianstitcher]

I think it's a mother of thousands. My (probable - it was unlabeled) mother of thousands thankfully has not been able to grow babies. She grows them on her leaves, they grow roots, but I don't have dozens of babies in the soil. She grows like a weed though...last year I chopped mine down into 2 sections. The original stem in the ground did nothing (phew?), the 2 pieces I cut off both rooted and have grown about a foot in a year. My original cutting from before that is almost 3 feet tall now. She's leaning against the wall cause her stem isn't strong enough. I need to chop her down...maybe I need to find a plant swap and trade 2 pieces of her for something a bit slower growing.

[@Farstar5710]

Looki'n good 👍 Ashley!♡

[@JUDYHU888]

I really want to go to the Home Depot you went to , they have much more collections. Do they set it up for you , Ashly!!!!???😜

[@ErinBooms]

I got a hanging variegated hindu rope for 9.99 once!!

[@thespoiledtexan3904]

I need that epiphyte!!!! And the next time I see you removing the farina from a succulent imma die and unsubscribe 😏. But really, don’t do that, woman!!!! 😂 it’s protection for the plant! It’s like moisture and sunlight protection; they’ll burn anywhere that’s been rubbed off 😳. Your monstera score is awesome.

[@HeatherHarrisfit]

I wonder how much the monstera was!

[@taylorhughey9331]

22

[@taneabree]

$22 freakin dollars, if you said no, I would’ve cried lol

[@brittanisantiago694]

You have the best Lowe's and Home Depots!! NY needs to step up their game 🙄 What's your Zodiac sign?! Lol Random.

[@bramsyahnoval5183]

Nice I like

[@williampiquett8652]

Awesomeness

[@OfficialAshlynnBabb]

I think that’s a Bella Palm

[@chrystalsabin4091]

Parlor Palm

[@GAD_2024]

Ur outfits 👌👍

[@sandramuoio6756]

Your outfit is giving me cher from clueless vibes, I love it!

[@bubblegummel]

I really don't like monstera deliciosa personally. I just cant relate

[@mikebegonia6134]

Thank you for your feedback.

[@prettyzuri]

Why is this girl telling me what plants I have seen before? Who are you?

[@katielabelle9662]

So, is that normal in America that you pick up things from shelves but not putting it back? I mean, you're making the work from those sellers ten time harder by making a mess that they have to clean up for you. I don't know, but in germany this is considered as really rude.

[@PlantingAshley]

Ive never been told its not, and my friends who work in lowes and home depot have also never told me its an issue. I can barely get them off, i wouldnt b able to get them back on. Its not like theyre left in the middle of the floor, theyre where the other monsteras were that had already been offloaded onto the floor. Idk what to say man, its normal behaviour here.

[@rhaelaettner9641]

I got a monsters bigger than those for $12 Florida is the best

[@JoeMama-qh2ng]

$20 for a monstera tht size.....
