You never have to make excuses for buying more plants Robbie! As far as I’m concerned you can never buy enough plants! Another thing - you do what you want with your own money! Love shopping with you Robbie. Xxx

[@eileenchang2173]

I don’t know why we gardeners have to explain our plant purchases! They give me joy and certainly feed my soul! ( And I haven’t been on vacation since the pandemic!) 🤣🌸🇨🇦

[@BarbeeDoll77]

Same. Do what makes you happy. It’s your $ and you earned it to do whatever! Good for you!! Love watching you!! 💜

[@rhelton7720]

Dear Robbie, the main reason I love watching is you have a budget and stress over spending money which a lot of us do!! Makes you very relatable. But with a budget you still have a beautiful garden and I think that is what we all strive for!

[@rootelation486]

Beautiful choices. You owe no one an explanation of your spending other than Brent.....if he has no problem with it, all is well!

[@jenniferaustin5607]

Dear Robbie, this is your business! You are showing us plants, showing us planting the plants, showing us how the plants grow in your garden. How can you possibly do that without spending money? I so appreciate everything you do for us!

[@judymckerrow6720]

Robbie you never have to explain your purchases to a fellow gardener, I think MOST of us have plant lust ? Some of us have to wait a little longer to buy everything we would like, but when you find something or things you really really like you need to get them before they’re gone because in my experience once they’re gone you can never find them back again. At least that’s my excuse to myself. 😂💐💚🙃

[@taragoodloe4122]

Robbie thanks for showing us such beautiful plants. I love your artist eye on the plants you pick and combine together.😊

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Please don’t make excuses for buying plants especially on a gardening channel!!!! Love your plant choices and can’t wait to see them in your garden!

[@janicehellzen8765]

Please don’t apologize for buying plants when it is your passion and your business also. I live your videos and if you didn’t buy plants it wouldn’t be near as fun to watch!! Can’t wait to see them all in your garden!

[@sharonpence6919]

Robbie, I love your videos but especially your personality, you smile and laugh a lot which I love. Please make no excuses for how you spend your money, love all the plants you got and can't wait to see where you plant them

[@Sunshine-tf4ul]

OMG Robbie, I totally get it! I don't go on vacations, highlight my hair, go out to eat, or buy new clothes or shoes, all my money goes into my garden. But it's a life choice I've made and I live simple but super blessed and happy sharing my garden with all my neighbors and people who pass by and see it. I feel like god blesses me with everything I need and I'm so grateful! A lady who walks by my garden jumped out of the car today and asked if she could donate to my garden and blessed me with a $10 bill. Wow! god is great!!! Is'nt it funny when you come home with plants, you feel like you need to hide.? I always get that response, "More plants? or Don't you have enough plants?" ugggh, they just don't understand!!! You never have enough plants!!!!!🤣 But anyways, it was fun watching you buy all those beautiful plants today. I wish we had nice plants in Hawaii. Nothing nice. Can't even get Proven winners or Monrovia plants! So sad! But I guess it's for the best, I'd probably go bankrupt. Til next time!!!

[@andrewmarknorbury1382]

Hi, beautiful plants. If you want to spend all your money on plants, please don't worry about anyone else.

[@bonniemiller9197]

Dear Robbie, I absolutely love how you can rationalize your purchases just as the rest of us do. Sure you have a budget, as we do, but.......I am such an impulse buyer!!!!! And then as you enter the nursery you SQUIRREL!!!!!! Oh how we love you!!!!

[@rhondaschenk5727]

I LOVE your shopping trips! Those lattice pots!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@user-iq7dl7he6r]

You got a lot for $300! No explanation necessary. I can't go anywhere these days without coming home with more plants. Makes me happy.

[@rootelation486]

Isn't it an awesome feeling to go out for everything BUT plants and find at least one to bring home

[@user-iq7dl7he6r]

Went to Tractor Supply for spray paint. Came home with a plant from their new beautiful garden center!!

[@rootelation486]

@@user-iq7dl7he6r 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@Flowerpower503]

Those pots will be so pretty with the topiaries! My garden is my passion, so I would rather spend money on plants than anything else any day!

[@jennifero7189]

Oh Robbie, no need to explain how you spend YOUR money! Those who complain about the amount of plants you have are just busy bodies who need to mind their business. Love you and your beautiful garden

[@donnasantamaria8317]

Robbie, Robbie, Robbie! Don't let gardener's guilt steel your joy! Your purchase was a business investment and you are increasing your property value and enjoying a hobby all for $300!! And you saved $90 on your containers. Happy planting! Can't wait to see the garden when you finish!

[@suebohn5573]

Garden math ! $90. buying two, but on sale , save $90. Now you have $90 extra dollars to spend towards plants ! Sounds about right to me. Can't wait to see everything planted.

[@JRP58]

I’m a retired accountant and I don’t think you should have to justify your purchases. It’s not really anyone else’s business and you know what makes sense for your budget. I’m glad you were able to get those pots, it’s a great savings. I see buying plants as making an investment in my home. Granted, annuals only last a year, but they make such an impact and fill holes in my garden for a season, so I add them to my budget.

[@quailhollow7955]

I think you spent wisely!! I love what you got. Thanks for always being so transparent - it is a refreshing change and makes us love you. ❤❤. Happy planting!!!

[@MsDisnyfan]

I think we all are the same. We spend our money on plants. I wear grunge clothes as I am always in the garden and dirty AF. All my $ goes to soil, plants, containers fertilizers and more plants. haha......love it Robbie.

[@ruralangwin]

Me too. Wearing rags while patrolling garden center benches.

[@valautolady358]

Excuse me Mr. I don’t go on vacations!!! I feel that 100%, however I go on vacations. My most visited destination is the pond garden then after that we enjoy quiet strolls around the vegetable garden where not only do we feed our soul but the pollinators love the brick flower beds around the garden. We take these vacations at least weekly. 😉

[@user-ev6fi5xu1f]

Hello, Carmen from TikTok here ❤ Robbie, I forgot to mention in my Jacaranda video that the flowers DO NOT smell so don’t worry about that. love love love all the plants you purchased!

[@coleenholloway6747]

Robbie, you are such a refreshing addition to this weird little corner of the internet. One of the things that made me hit the subscribe was your transparent, direct and down to earth approach to presenting gardening especially sharing how much money and work what we see actually takes. It really sets you apart from other creators and is super practical. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has used your project budgets and costs to at least ballpark plan ahead for my own gardening. Thanks for being so real!

[@babybree175]

Dude I really appreciate that you touched on price or money..yes 300 hundred bucks..that’s a lot of money for some..but you are transparent and living to guessing. Thanks again for always thinking of ways to make us comfortable.

[@sandramadore4656]

Robbie you deserve it😊you work hard enjoy it👍

[@user-yl4dc8vk1r]

Robbie you work hard and you know exactly what you are doing! No one should judge you. What is that saying?, “the harder I work the luckier I get”. Every time you plant, just say “I earned this.”

[@mavisstaton1530]

When building or remodeling a house they always add a percentage for unexpected costs. Using plant math, $300 - 20% =$240 - $90 for free pot = $150 - $ for gas saved since you were near by ----- they were practically free!!!! 😄

[@joycelynbell1434]

I like your math😂

[@waureenkyriacou5056]

$300 , $400 , who's counting ....when one see's what one wants , one buys !!!!!! I expect there will be a lot of planting videos coming up, yay!!!! I bought two trees this spring and spent $400 ....I also decided that I wanted more perennials in my garden so I would spend less every year....we all know that's not going to happen lol

[@Maddieandelle]

Absolutely no need to explain yourself for spending that on plants we all know it’s your job and your aspirations to do this full time 💕💕 lovely video Robbie!!

[@user-bm9ry9jy6q]

Robbie, thank you for this video. Love the plants you chose. You are very sweet and I love that you are always positive and laugh. Your videos are very informative. Best regards Lynne

[@vickiemifflin2854]

It’s your money Robbie and you can spend it anyway you want. Enjoy your life and thank you for sharing your beautiful garden and life.

[@jerrimartin7279]

You make me smile. Thats exactly what I tell people, I don’t go on trips or vacation so spending part of my budget on garden items brings me the same joy they get when vacationing, etc. Great choice of plants! And pots!

[@proudmomma7095]

I haven’t even watched the video but Laughed Out Loud when I read the title! We ALL have said that lol, can’t help ourselves!!!!!

[@Peoniesandpinks]

Put the weeping blue as an archway to the garden! 💥

[@bellaj.4937]

Always enjoy shopping for plants...it's my excuse to buy at least 1 whenever I have to go $$ grocery shopping. I 💚 my black petunias. I surround these with other bright color petunias and greens. No excuses needed, everyone has their must buys...and ours are 🌹🌿🌱

[@moomoocho1196]

Thank you for keeping it real on what you are spending on plants, makes me love your channel even more 👍

[@heidijones1516]

Hi Robbie, you remind me of myself rationalizing the purchases I make for all things garden! It's what we do and who we are - gardeners!!! With your growing business, this is all part of what you need, Love that variegated brunnera!

[@debrayoung3870]

Hi Robbie 🌞No need to justify, excuse and explain your passion for gardening. Trust me…I am talking to myself as well 🥰 Love Gardening

[@pokessur2161]

Robbie, DON'T FEEL BAD! ! Personally, I bring home plants every time I go to town three times or more a week😂😂 You are helping us viewers by planting and sharing the results. Always love the updates!! Thanks!!!

[@SharonHearne-jy8gq]

Hi Robbie, Just love watching you. It is so beautiful that you are passionate about gardening. You never have to explain spending money on plants to your viewers. We understand how fun it is to go into nurseries and bring home beautiful plants to add to our garden.

[@nancylafferty8362]

Beautiful selection! They really compliment each other! Red, black and yellow! Nice!

[@juliemclaughlin68]

Robbie you are such a lovely guy. You don’t need to justify your spending as it makes you happy and it is your business too. You’re amazing at what you do so well done. X

[@darlenencambria]

Robbie, never feel guilty about buying plants. Being you 💚draws me to your channel. 🌻🧡

[@KP-gw5zv]

Good morning Robbie. Those are gorgeous plants that you purchased. I feel that if you have a budget for the plants for the garden then don't stress about it. You are here to give us viewers the inspiration for our garden and you stated that you are trying to expand this into your business. Plus a lot of your plants are sent to you by Monrovia. You are not telling everybody to go and spend all the plants you have. If I want to have some of those plants then I spread it out over several years. It is not a bad thing and I have to see every season what and where can I plant my plants that I purchase. You are one amazing gardener and have a wonderful day.

[@TGSHomeandGarden]

I have the same convo with myself after a plant shopping spree. As long as the bills get paid who cares what the extra gets spent on.😉

[@truthtalker4038]

hahaha When in Rome!! Love it! My aunt just bought me a sign that I hung on my house. It says "Yes, I do need all these plants"

[@heidijones1516]

Love that sign and sentiment, I have that one and another that says "It isn't hoarding if it's plants"

[@fayemayhew310]

Love, Love Love your excitement and enthusiasm! You make me smile! Keep being you!!!! Life is short, do what makes you happy!

[@dmcr8171]

We all Love Garden Math ! Fantastic Haul 🤩

[@annbergquist4253]

It's so much fun to go plant shopping with you and especially fun to hear your "garden math". Can't wait to see where all these lovely plants end up in your yard.

[@oneidaandino6677]

Hello Robbie!!! Don’t worry, you work so hard to buy the entire nursery 😅 if you want 👍 If you are happy… we are happy. I love your garden ♥️👋 Blessings

[@MichelleSuggs-ls1ki]

Robbie, Great shopping trip! No excuses needed. We love seeing you plant!

[@Faeriehood]

Alright Mr. Robbie…Ive been sitting at my desk all day planning & plotting with future projects for my own channel and ….struggling with that budget 🤦‍♂️🤦🤦‍♀️. Finally just had to walk away because of the expense. How’s this for a karmic connection ! Even though you didn’t need to justify what you spent… I’m glad you did. Not only did you contribute to another small business but you encourage another to keep chugging away at their dream. Many thanks for this 🧚‍♂️❤🧚‍♂️

[@victoriaaustin2468]

Oh Robbie! That a was such a fun plant shopping trip. I stress over whaat I spend for plants sometimes until I get them all planted and it looks so amazing and I feel I'm doing the earth a favor by refurbishing my little part of it. And don't we all wish we could "save $90" by finding a bogo on those awesome pots?!? You don't have to justify spending that money to many of us because we are all in the same boat. Excited to see where you plant it all. This is the first year I haven't gotten those awesome black petunias for my yard and I'm missing them. Glad to see you are going to have them in your garden. Love you and all you do!

[@nancypatterson374]

Robbie, you don’t need to explain yourself! I live like you and my home and my garden is my happy place. We don’t vacation either, I have beauty all around me! ❤❤

[@cathyhatfield5340]

Robbie you don’t owe anyone an explanation of what you spent on plants! Plus don’t feel guilty for buying plants it a gardeners right😎👍❤️

[@lizswinney2637]

No guilt! Plant shopping is wonderful. You will enjoy them so much. I love high hand nursery.

[@theteamhawkins]

I woulda bought skipped lunch to justify buying more plants and pots! You are amongst plant loving friends ❤

[@twilaklense5202]

Enjoyed the plant shopping. We all love plants so no excuses for buying them. I can't wait until you go back again. Thanks for sharing and have a great day. 😀🐞🐞🌻🌺🏵🏵💐🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🦋🦋🦋🦋

[@tinamcnamara5167]

No need for excuses. It's your money. Do what you want. Love shopping with you!

[@sandygroves5297]

I know I spend more every time I go into a nursery. Great show!

[@cdbasey]

Enjoy your plants and treat yourself!!! No apologies or justification needed. Have a great day!

[@yecarter36]

Robbie, when you buy all of the beautiful plants, you are making an investment in your property 😀 so it's a win win!

[@wagnerab1958]

You got some great stuff. Don't explain why you spent what you spent, it's simple you love plants and your garden and that's a good thing!

[@sheliafears591]

Oh my Gosh! I am so jealous! 🌺🌷💐🪴I don’t go on trips either…and spend all my money on plants! Do you ever sit at the bistro set, have coffee and just enjoy your hard work? Just beautiful! ❤

[@debraandersen6895]

I love it when you go plant shopping!! So much FUN!!!

[@tonyahatch1400]

Dude, you don’t have to explain yourself!! Loved getting to come along on this shopping trip! Beautiful plant haul! 💚💐

Beautiful new plants! No need to justify, we are all on board!

[@ejmedina7065]

Awesome Robbie love everything you bought!!👏👏👏

[@nicholasryan5401]

Beautiful pots and plant choices, They are the bees knees.

[@jackiroundtree1459]

Robbie, I appreciate your processing out loud on your purchases. You seized the day (carpe diem) and the opportunity. That was a smart move! I am looking forward to seeing where you plant your new goodies.

[@arrakristellagarcia1468]

Hi Robbie! thanks for sharing your beautiful plant purchases. Love watching your videos! i wish your channel grows just like the Garden answer. much love 💞💕

[@krisleonard1428]

Everything is beautiful! Pots were a deal! So much fun!

[@gelinda2718]

ROBBIE YOU DESERVE TO SPEND $300 DOLLARS , AND YES WHEN IN ROME 😁 I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS YOU AND BRENT ARE GREAT!

[@elmariedstra5631]

Love those pots and never ever need to explain what you spend!! I rather buy plants or stuff for my house than go out to eat or vacation!!!

[@janeenclark8728]

Love your choice of plants !😊

[@nanaof07]

Hi Robbie, Lisa from NY here. I met you at the Winters POP UP. I few into Sacramento and stayed with family for 10 days in Granite Bay. They took me to High Hand for lunch ( had the fish tacos!) Food is so good and it's a beautiful place, I got to do so may cool things while I was there. Anyways, just saying Hi! It was so nice to meet you and see familiar faces that day.

[@barbarameckley6095]

Love watching you shop for plants! Livin’ the dream!

[@Dvgis]

Hi Robbie, it is no one’s business what you spend on plants. I know the cost based on my visits to various garden centres. You are providing content that is free to us all and I appreciate all you do ❤

[@Carolecjf]

Love all of the plants and pots you got! Thanks for bringing us so long !

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Robbie! You're so fun to watch. I'm glad you took us back to High Hand Nursery, and that your pots were still on sale. Your lunch looked delicious. I love pulled pork sandwiches and potato salad. The weeping tree arbors are so pretty. I hope you can find one in the size you want. Someone in the comments said that Monrovia carries those. Maybe they will see this video an send you one. Fingers crossed! ;-) All of the plants you got are so pretty. I'm looking forward to seeing you plant up all of the plants you have. I appreciate that you share plant prices with us, but don't feel you need to justify how much you spend. Like you said, gardening is your business and you have a plant budget. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@laureleiparrish4169]

Thank you for showing us High-Hand Nursery. Husband took me out (2 hr 20 min drive) so I could get some unique indoor plants for a large planter in our Primary Bedroom. Needed all the plants to be low/same maintenance so they would survive together. Woman at counter was very knowledgeable in making suggestions for my trio of plants as she had personal experience with most of the. plants. My big planter looks great now and I dumped the large. (picky) aloe plant that was in it and not practical (babies already growing in side yard under a Royal Blue Iochroma Cyanea from another favorite nursery "Annies Annuals". Made this trip out as had to make a second trip out to pick up the. rest of a fountain we could not fit. in our car from Pottery World (also from one of your videos)!

[@StaceyFernandes-ek9ks]

beautiful beautiful plant!!! have a lot of fun playing in the dirt

[@sandrasmith8100]

Those containers are gorgeous! And you bought all the plants I would gravitated towards! Good job!

Robbie, such a bargain to get those pots bogo !! Beautiful nursery and you got some really nice plants !! So fun shopping with you !!

[@sandrabradbury4348]

Robbie, you are funny. Trying to make it ok that you bought the plants. You just never have to make excuses for buying plants. It's ok. Besides is your job on you tube. Love the plants you bought. Can't wait to see where you put them.

[@pcfamily6542]

Morning 🌞 Love all the plant choices! I am going to echo everyone that you don't need to explain yourself and every gardener has said the same thing 😊 Looking forward to seeing where you plant them 💕

[@virginiaramirez4214]

Robbie you crack me up 😆 Love that nursery so many plants to choose. I can see why you bought more plants I would have done the same thing. 😆 Happy planting. 🪴 Try to stay cool 😎

[@juliamorrisey5541]

Wee all have those spaces that just need something to fill it in, or we can create that space. It is always happy shopping when plants agree involved.

[@sunshineinmysoul341]

I’m so happy you have money budgeted for plants. It makes you happy and well 20,000 plus people happy as well, including myself 😊. That’s a win win in my book.

[@LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica]

When it comes to plants I spend my money so easy lol. Just enjoy the garden.

[@hailyalessio8171]

Well good thing you live in California and I’m in New Jersey because if I went plant shopping with you I would be broke lol!!!!! Spend what you want Robbie and enjoy. You deserve it ❤

[@okiegrandma1154]

I'm a new subscriber of 2 weeks. Your adorable enthusiasm for your garden was a breath of fresh air. Your right that plant is a hybrid. Petchoe. I think it might be Vanilla Blush.

[@heidijones1516]

So happy to find Petchoa this season! I've always been kinda grossed out dealing with sticky petunias, nice to have another option.

[@CarolynRedpath]

Go for it, Robbie! I don’t have a business! I just LOVE plants! Thank you for sharing everything! I’m in South Carolina! New to growing here because I’m originally from Texas! But I like seeing all your choices! I’m in 8a-b!

[@jennifergreene8891]

What a wonderful plant haul Robbie! Never feel you need to explain, I used to do the same until I realized.. If it is my love and hobby and I dont do anything else, why feel guilty. As long as everything else is taken care of! Thank you for sharing!

[@roxanagonzalez414]

I do the same, “I don’t go on vacation…” haha

[@sandykoenig1666]

I am jumping with joy for you Robbie, you got your pots. Robbie, you shouldn't feel guilty about what you spend, this is your business , I have yet to hear of a business person who doesn't spend money to keep the business going.

[@jillbruce3624]

Hi Robbie. I am so glad you went back there and those containers were still available. I love them. Do not feel that you have to rationalize your spending with the rest of us. You are conscientious, it is your money and your business. Anyway, cannot wait to see all the new plants in their new homes.

[@janettefisher256]

Luv the black and yellow petunias together , beautiful 🖤💛

[@abeerali7834]

Robbie, if you had to describe yourself, what would you choose? A kid at a toy store, a hoarder, or a cross mix in between 😊? Any description you choose, that would describe me too 😂 You have an exquisite taste in plants and you’re so adorable ❤

[@bettypisiakowski2148]

Those pots are beautiful.. can’t wait to see them filled. Plants are very expensive this year.. I think a lot of have felt like we spent too much. Your are making an investment in your yard for you and your family to enjoy.. enjoy it and be thankful. ❤🌸❤
