It's over.

[@KayleeEllenOfficial]

If anyone does want the full ugly breakdown of what happened - my podcast link is in the description of this video. ❤

[@violettewise]

Adore you Kaylee and love your content no matter what it is. Been watching you I think since you were still doing some make up videos and starting plant content :) I am sorry for this but appreciate that you are always willing to share things with us with complete honesty ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@marciabeans3528]

Nonthank you😢. But I do want to break down of Kayll Ellen 2.0. LET'S GO!❤❤❤❤

[@laattardo]

You got screwed by things out of your control. Be proud of what you've achieved. You had the gumption to go for what you wanted and that's more than most people can say.

[@honeybeesplants8943]

The sad and hard truth is, the good majority of us are struggling financially. Everywhere. I know for me personally, I've stopped buying plants because the budget isn't approved. I was also selling plants for a good year and a half and had to stop doing that first. My focus, like many, is elsewhere to help make life doable. I feel the heartache you feel Kaylee. I'm sure many of us do. This too shall pass, and other good things are coming! ❤

[@katiewilliams9273]

Anyone that's been here will NEVER forget that living wall. Absolutely incredible. Kaylee you have a lot to be proud of and you will have a lot more coming 😊

[@Rache_777]

That was a work of art ❤

[@Miller1107]

Gutted for you Kaylee. Glad to hear the YT channel will keep going, we enjoy your content even if it's not in the shop!

[@lumi8973]

Just because something can't last forever, doesn't mean it wasn't a great sucess at its time or it is less impressive in retrospect. A bit like an artist making an icesculpture :D Just imagine what else you can do if you managed to create all of that and this community for the time being. Future awaits and I'm proud!

[@sharonmclaughlin2258]

Kaylee Ellen, I’m so sad to hear that the shop is closed. I know you will get through this and come out stronger.

[@growingandglowinggreenhouse]

Kaylee, you're the reason I got into rare plants. I'm so sorry to hear that The Rare Plant Shop is no longer, but you need to do what is best for you. I'm very happy to hear that NurtureSystem is still going strong because your line of products are top quality!!! We all are invested in you as Kaylee Ellen, not as The Rare Plant Shop owner. We want to see you succeed and take care of yourself and well being. We want to support you in any way that we can. Please do whatever is best for you, and we will be here cheering you on and watching your videos for as long as you allow us to. I wish you the best in healing from this 🙏 and wish you tremendous growth in every other aspect of your life ❤

[@amandalynn79]

So many times in life, we have to pivot. That is the purest definition of strength, bravery, and courage, and the finest definition of a great business leader. I was one of those that made a comment asking if the shop was still open. To be honest, as much as I liked the shop content, my question wasn't 100% about the shop. It was more so in concern for you and hoping that you were okay. Not that you asked, but I (and I think many others) are really enjoying the new content. I'm sitting here taking a couple of weeks off from my software development job, painting, and watched this video, and I really just smiled for this next chapter in your life. I appreciate your honesty, vulnerability, and sass. Thank you for sharing your journey and this new chapter in whatever way you choose to. It's you, not the plant shop that makes your content special. It may be hard to envision now. Transition always is. But I hope this new chapter is your best one yet! And in many ways, your journey; the triumphs, struggles, low points, and decisions to pivot represent so many of us in this world. To me at least, your story feels of a story of absolute passion and beautiful resilience and inspires me. :)

[@Julieroseart]

I want to praise you for being so vulnerable and honest, it's so refreshing. I know it must have been heard to come out about it, but really, please know that this has actually made me realise I'm not the only struggling to make a income from what I love. It's hard to know what is going on behind the scenes on these shiny professional social media platforms. You have made me feel normal, and I'm sure many others feel the same from your message her. Sending you all the luck for everything you do in the future ❤

[@theeclecticgent502]

So sorry to hear this. There's always the memories though that alot of us plant people never get to experience. The living wall as you showed, Mr Dark boi .. soo many good memories. Your a staple plant influencer qnd one ofnthe best and we love ya. Keep your head up 😊

[@hsapienza1372]

Kaylee your future is bright! On to new adventures in plant health, I'll be excited to see how it grows 💚

[@kellicreamer9660]

There's so many plants in my collection that I never would have even heard of if it wasn't for you, and your tips and tricks have saved nearly all of them at some point. Good luck in your next endeavor, you're an amazing person and you deserve the best.

[@alonzoarteaga]

Sorry Kaylee. You did your best. Plants will always be by your side. Through thick & thin. They will stand by you. 😊 Merry Christmas and stay strong. Thanks for the great videos too.

[@knitwitchpgh]

Youre not alone in this. My best friend opened her houseplant business right before covid and its finally taken a full backseat this year. Her plant business is now a hobby and she's back in the horticulture industry. I opened my business in 2020 and its been TOUGH. As i told a separate friend who had to downsize her salon this month. We're in a hard spot and i hope you stay strong and know we're here for you 🖤

[@mogo5555]

I’m so sorry Kaylee. Please take care of yourself. You put your heart and soul into that shop and we all saw it. That determination will help you succeed on your next journey. I miss all the documentary type videos you have done like tc (kind of ironic.)

[@carolRhatigan]

Hello, I won't say goodbye; just see you soon.😢😢😢

[@jacquelines7492]

That living wall was EVERYTHING!!! I discovered you during the pandemic. I was obsessed with your 🪴 🌿 plants!❤

[@fingesso]

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened! 💚 Kaylee, you did what 90% of us wouldn't even dare try. The shop wasn't a failure in any way - it gave you loads of experience and you learnt a ton, and there was not much you could do about the current economic climate. Sending you lots of love and good vibes for 2025. Maybe the shop closed to make room for something even better in your life... 🤞🤗💛

[@plantsinjars]

Your 'Breaking Bad' tissue culture video was one of the first micropropagation videos I ever watched. I'm sorry to hear about the Rare Plant Shop but wishing you the most success with Nurture System. You've inspired a lot of people :)

[@darylp4766]

Yes she has and so have you.

[@sandy_carpetsthesecond5013]

I do hope Nurture System is successful, that fertiliser is so damn good, I swear.

[@valkatzenberg]

I'm so sorry to hear about your shop. So many plants shops are closing and it hurts my heart. I'll always be a fan and supporter of yours. I've learned so much from you and your channel. No matter what content you put up, I'm here for it! ❤

[@kevinklosterman2783]

I'm very sorry to hear this news. I wish you all the best in the future.

[@kimberlyskinner8177]

No Good Bye!! See you later 💞!!My Stromanthe Triostar is huge and 3 years old, Thanks to you!💖 She is gorgeous 🥰. Thank you,also, for clearing my sinuses!!🎉. I have had a cold since it got cold. Seeing and hearing you cry cursed me to bawl and breathe again!!!!😊 xoxo 😘

[@colinf2316]

Nooooooo! Not upset just sad for you! I loved watching you set it up and open. Totally understand why you have to close down, just wish it wasn’t true 😢. You’re awesome! ❤

[@suepowell5008]

But sweetie, you DID succeed. You built something great. Then the market and economy changed drastically. That does NOT remove your success. And I'm willing to bet that you learned a LOT that you can carry with you into the future. I see a bright future for you. (I'm the mom of 2 grown daughters, can you tell?)

[@HolidayGlow]

The cost of living crisis has hit a lot of us and meant that the landscape of what we need to do and can do has changed hugely. I know the closure would have been a massive thing but one thing sort of stood out to me - you said, "not everything you do in life is going to work well, not everything in life you're going to succeed at". And while I absolutely agree with what you said just after that about it not being about those things anyway and how what you do from there is most important I'd like to just reframe a bit. You know how you said you couldn't see the shop the way we did until you stepped outside it? I'd also like to suggest that while you're caught up in the process of this chapter of the shop ending, it is probably hard to see that something doesn't have to be permanent to have been something that worked well and was an amazing success. Appreciate what you achieved and soak it up. Grieve it too but don't negate what it was either. I totally understand (and do not in any way invalidate how much it would hurt) to have things ending sooner than you wanted and in a way you didn't want but the ending is only one part and doesn't define the whole.

[@agata2199]

I am very sorry. I live in Poland and would probably never buy in a store, but I understand the loss. I have been using your fertilizer since October and together with my plants we want to thank you very much - great job 👍 You are great and you will do it - for yourself and for the animals 😻😻🐎 good luck

[@rabbitsandphilodendron]

oooh thats so sad! i really loved seeing you blog about the shop, everything looked so amazing. i kept wondering about it though, most plant shops focusing on rare plants closed over here too for similar reasons. lots of maintenance/costs and then also exotic plants going back to becoming more of a niche interest than it was back during quarantine times, which is a development that was out of everyones' control. it's such a shame to see your shop close too, but from what i saw with how much passion you handled this project, i bet your new endeavors will take off as well! i wish you the best of luck and all the best for the next year.

[@hellodarling9073]

The state of the world and the global economy are destroying livinghoods, everyone is struggling and cutting corners, buying only essentials, which is why so many bussinesses struggle to remain. This isn't your fault, do not feel ashamed, you are not alone. You tried your best and you gained a lot of knowledge and experience. I wish you the best. ❤️

[@bethlovesthings]

I watched you before the shop and I'll keep watching you after. I understand how heart breaking this must be, but you should be so proud of everything you have achieved. 💖

[@2amplants33]

I, for one, can not WAIT to hear unfiltered plant critiques. They've always been my fav. 🥰

[@Boreaana]

Don’t be embarrassed girl! You achieved so much, even if it’s the end for the rare plant shop adventure’s, this is a learn and grow experience and you did soooo much and tough us so much too! For vlogs maybe do it on your secondary channel so yt will not be so annoyed! I hope you’ll be as proud of you as we are of you very soon!❤❤

[@knitwitchpgh]

Seriously! Businesses are most likely to fail in the first 2-5 years, make it past two years is a huge success! She should be proud that for 4 years ish she had a wonderful business

[@Boreaana]

@ i couldn’t agree more! I try so much on my first business than when I have to shut it out I learn so much and it helped me to go with such a stronger knowledge on my second one and succeeded in so many area where I failed the first time!

[@ralphchristianson]

You are an amazing women who had the dream of rare plants. You know more about plants then anyone I know. You took a chance with this project and then the world imploded and people had to buy groceries instead of plants. I think a number of green houses in Canada that have also had a down turn but are still trying. Glad to hear you are back on the fitness journey as you are number one in your life and you must take care of you for the next and many journeys ahead. You will be blessed in 2025 and beyond because you are good people and the haters will go on to their next stupidity. Take care and be strong.

[@ari505]

Kaylee, please give yourself some grace, you have done amazing things in a short amount of time not only with plants but you have also healed from past experiences, you taught us a lot on how to push through on the face of adversity, these are new beginnings for greater things to come

[@ricardocaliman2830]

I cant speak to what you are losing, no one will know that pain outside of you... and for that I am sorry. Try to hold on to what did all of that - yourself. The shop is wonderful, but the inspiration you gave others (me in fact), all that came from you. YOU are an amazing personality. That you took shyte from those who are unable to see that, must not be allowed to taint the true product... who you are. Thank you for being you.

[@ObedCEsquivel]

Stay strong! 🌱💚

Kaylee I come to watch your videos for you. Your energy and spirit are what brings me back. Stay strong and remember we are all in this together. It has been a really bad year for many of us and we understand. You will rise and do great many more interesting things and i hope you bring us along. *hugs*

[@lunatheleo]

I’m sorry you had to close. You’re awesome and you’ve always inspired me. I’m way too scared to even try to start anything of my own. I love your videos and will be here to watch whatever you decide to do next! I’d love book videos and vlogs and other stuff too not just houseplant content. Merry Christmas Kaylee🎄

[@ieechew7187]

So sorry to hear about this Kaylee. I have got out of growing rare indoor plants due to work stress and losing a dear friend to aggressive cancer this year. I was paralysed with grief and anxiety from work. A Nearly all my indoor plants died from neglect. I am slowly recovering during this holiday period. Your loss is 10 fold mine. Take care and wish you speedy recovery soon! LP

[@mbean0106]

Loved how you said please don't skip the ads and an ad popped up.

[@Uche-1]

You’re not the only one, it’s great that you realize that. Many shops are closed, those who left their jobs are going back to work. You can still sell from home, or go back to your regular job, maybe part time. But in all, you are strong and you will be okay. 🤗 Still can’t get the plant food here in the U.S.

[@filiprandjak9715]

I do not normally comment on anything on the Internet but I have to now cos I know you will read it. Thank you very much for your content, be proud of yourself and, most importantly, get that mental health back in shape and for that I send you lots of courage and love.

I’m so sorry Kaylee Ellen, I’m sure you’re feeling devastated 😢 I hope the New Year brings some great opportunities your way. 🎄😀🇨🇦

I’m going through something similar and sending you positive energy from a million miles away. 💗⚡️

[@rainbowacresfarm]

This makes me so sad. I just started getting back into houseplants after taking a hiatus in order to save to buy my house at the end of 2020. I was so hoping to buy a plant baby or two from your shop! Instead, I'll look forward to ordering some plant food and merchandise. Sending you love as you navigate your new journey. You're stronger than you know 💕

[@lalelulyle]

so sorry Kaylee… i wish you a good new start in whatever you will come up with and what makes you happy.

[@MichalDennis]

I'm a recently retired head buyer, including tropicals. I followed most of the influencers. It helps to have a finger on the pulse of everything, to know what's going on in cyberworld. You were my favorite. I will miss you.

[@TheBarefootedGardener]

That montage was so SO COOL! We will be here for you. You’ll start writing a new chapter soon enough, but I believe that big things happen in life for a reason; maybe take a vacation even just to the south of the UK for some mental separation. Merry Christmas to you and your GF 😊

[@TheTropicBudget]

Sending you so much love Kaylee❤ I’ve followed your videos since the very beginning and I’ve learned so much from you. You lit my passion for rare plants and business too. The climate with TC is beyond our control but you had an amazing run! It was an awesome time with rare plants before tc, and we’ll always remember it. You’re amazing ❤

Hi Kaylee, just came across this video. Very sorry to hear about your plant business. Wishing you all the best in the future. You got this!

[@violetgrimm4]

I just wanted to reach out and say that I totally get what you're going through. I've been running my own tattoo shop for 8 years now, and I expanded in 2020, things have got really tough for me too. It's been hard not being able to take a wage and having to make some difficult decisions while feeling really down about it all. I completely understand how it feels to watch something you've poured your heart and soul into being impacted by things you can’t control. Thank you so much for sharing such an honest video! Just know, you’re not alone in this. Sending you lots of support! x

[@I_dont_need_more]

😢 so sorry to hear about your shop. It’s always tough to lose something you’ve put your heart into. Please don’t stop sharing your knowledge and love for plants.

[@albenadzh]

I can totally see how you came to this. It was an amazing hobby for me, even from some point self funded with trade and propagations. It breaks my heart to see now mature plants sold for 1/10th of the seedling price I paid. It devalued the hobby and the experience and instead of having more plants it pushed me away towards another hobby.

[@nkipmo1154]

Wishing you healing Kaylee Ellen!! I appreciate your vulnerability always ❤

[@jnnickson2]

Hugs. That shop was your baby. It's going to be hard,but you will get through it

[@EarthScapeVision]

I’m so sorry Kaylee! I’m glad you have another business & KZbin going well… even though losing the shop is devastating & grief is natural, I’m sure it will turn out to be a blessing in disguise. You did amazing with it for the season it was meant to be in your life… & now I’m looking forward to see your success in whatever avenues you explore next! Love to you & happy holidays ♥️🌌✨

[@MyBookishEmpire]

Kaylee, you always have been an inspiration! I am so happy to have seen the Rare Plant Shop through its entire journey! Your spunk and take no bull attitude pushed me to be stronger in my personal life. Thank you for all you do. The Rare Plant Shop was amazing, your videos in the shop will preserve its beauty and magic for everyone to relive forever. My one regret is not being able to purchase from your shop sooner and missing the chance to have a Kaylee Ellen Plant. Happy Christmas and New years! Cheers

[@sassyjaxxy]

Loved watching you run RPS but makes sense that it’s unsustainable. I got into plants in 2021 and it chaned SOOOO much since then. Finding you early on fave me the rare plant bug early on and honestly I found so much joy and happiness in them. It really helped me heal from my divorce so thanks for being and continuing to be an authentic voice on the internet plant world!

[@JMS77-c9m]

So sorry for you Kaylee.. stay strong! You are young, beautiful and smart, something bigger and better is in your future. I'll still be here for any planty, cat or horse content.. much love and respect! Merry Christmas and happy new year.

This hits home so much I we appreciate you for this. Coming from someone who had a family business that slowly dwindled away and then completely tanked at its end, I feel for you but applaud your grace and journey. Your Albo video sent me down a rare plant rabbit hole after growing a huge avocado tree from seed and I have been hooked ever since! I’m so happy you were my gateway into the world of rare plants especially as a fellow 🌈🫶🏼

[@alexisboily6052]

We are so proud of you Kaylee!

[@ApequH]

That's a hard step to make! I hope in time you will see how well you did, creating the shop and the brand and also that it's good to let it go. I hate that youtubes algorithm is so hard on creators switching it up

[@fireflyintheroom]

Im so sorry Kaylee. Sending big hug your way. What an adventure you had! 💌

[@Nufebe]

Don't forget. Even if it feels like it is gone. It isn't really. You've documented it, and shared it with everyone right here. Every now and again I look at the full documentary and I get goosebumps over the amazing journey you've had. It's like watching back a feel-good movie; even though you know what will happen, it feels good in your soul to see it again. Some people will have made a similar journey to you, but they wont have this amazing footage to look back upon. Thank you for letting us be part of your journey. It has been and still is an honour and a joy.

[@JJ-ec9lp]

My favorite local plant store closed at the start of this year. I currently work in a plant store that has only been able to break even because at this point we sell more home goods than plants. Selling local ceramicists’ works has gotten us a lot of new and repeat customers, and almost everyone buys a pot or soap or lotion or bath bomb or whatever in addition to their plant. Lots of people have come in just to get Christmas ornaments because we sell nice hand blown glass ones. Some of the other local shops are making money by selling workshops. At this point in time, you can’t just sell plants anymore.

[@lajarox4190]

My plants and ur channel were a big part of my pandemic experience. Life is about experiences and sometimes the old needs to mak room for the new. Girl u did the damn thing, no one can take away what u accomplished. So i send u a huge "Thank You" for ur part in my experience...see u on the other side❤❤

Really sorry to hear this! I can only imagjne the anxiety youre hojng through. Remember to allow yourself to feel all the emotions regardless of how ridiculous it might make you feel. Be kind to yourself and don't be harsh on yourself for the struggles you've faced, it makes you so much stronger in my eyes being honest, real and open about it xx

[@theplantprodigy2010]

I’m so sad the plant community is dying. First it was planterina, and now you. 😢

[@AlphaHenriksen]

Pretty in green closed their shop too. I think it's a completely general macroeconomic trend, not just a plant community problem.

[@knitwitchpgh]

Its an ebb and flow, and economical. Im down 10k in my business this year. It will ramp up again in a few years when the market is small and niche again

[@Andi-xe8qo]

Be proud. You did something that a lot of people dream off. Take care your health first than you have more strength do something new.

[@jordanschoffstall]

Your description of her "dying" is as inaccurate as it is crass and insensitive. If what you saw in this video was "death" you need to recalibrate some things. There's some uncertainty, to be sure. But also change, and fittingly, new growth. Very much the opposite of dying (pretty sure the same could be said for Amanda/Planterina as well).

[@cuttingscocktails8785]

Omg im so sorry you got me through the pandemic and i wish you nothing but success. You are a fighter and you make me braver. Sorta corny but u will make the comeback even more successful

[@xoMiky]

Oh Kaylee, im so sorry to hear. I closed my own rare plant shop at the start of this year. Again, tried lots of different avenues to keep her running but it just wasnt feasible any longer. I would have loved to keep going with my passion, but burn out and also the state of the market, it would have run me further into the ground than i already was

[@marya5070]

We love you Kaylee! Times are tough. Mentally, I've been struggling and I've lost a lot of plants in the last few months. And like others have said, the budgets are just not there. It hits hard, but we are still here for you. Thank you for always being so transparent. We get it and we support you. You should be proud of all you've done. It's huge. Can't wait to see where we go next.

[@celenakhorn2791]

This breaks my heart so much. Hang in there Kaylee we love and support you so much ❤

[@walterd02]

You’re the goat I swear. I love your content and I got into your content randomly from a root rot issue I had less than a month into planting and didn’t revisit by another video for maybe 1-2 months after like “oh I’ve seen her before” and I just fell in a rabbit hole. But hey regardless you’re doing your best in the chaos that the world is in (I feel in every possible way is it chaos now) but we manage. I don’t personally know you but I absolutely wish you the best and will continue to watch and support. I know my girlfriend recently me merch of yours I hope that still supports you! I still love the aesthetic of your merch and hope you continue to release from time to time! I hope your fertilizer makes its way further into the US market. I kept up with that one store that carries your stuff but it’s been outta stock for a bit. But I believe in you and what you offer and what you do! Fight the good fight Kaylee!

[@idawldike5106]

[@Lyssa72]

I am so sorry you have had to go through this. I think it’s truly scary times world wide. I want to add that I purchased your Nurture System Power Grow 1 a couple months ago here from a US distributor and dayyyyam, my anthurium’s are POPPING leaves left and right now. All of my plants love it, SERIOUSLY love it, especially my Alocasia’s, Monstera’s and Anthurium’s. I am about out but it will be back in stock about the time I need to order it. Sending love and light to you! Be proud of all you have accomplished- when one chapter ends, another better one begins.

[@Milquetoast702]

I am crying with you!!!! I am so gutted for you. I am also SO proud of you. I have always admired your gusto and work ethic to make all this happen. It is so scary to feel like something you hold so much passion for - feels like an end. BUT We are going to be with you and we understand there will be a shift . I am so very sorry. And personally I want to thank you for everything i have learned from you. The fun I had watching you and Ben. I truly believe you have a very bright future .

[@Highlander-qf8ho]

[@tylerdalton5194]

I believe i speak for many of us… we are so stupidly proud of where you, your channel and your brands have come. Watching you become more comfortable with yourself has been so inspiring to so many of us. Yes, this is the end of one era, but this is a whole new opportunity for a completely new path and amazing chances. And I know its easier said then done, please take care of yourself. I would also like to thank you for the influence into my plant obsession. I feel like i have found a whole new me and i am so much happier for it… so huge thank you to you.

When a door closes another one opens. I loved to watch your dream become reality. You are still a rockstar!

I am so sorry. And I totally understand how you are feeling. I was a barista for years and finally had the option to buy the store I worked at, it was my DREAM! But the financial issues in 2008/2009 killed my business and I lost it. I was 8 months pregnant at the time. It was heartbreaking and brutal and I felt like an absolute failure. But...my life changed completely. I went back to college, became a nurse...and now I can look back with nostalgia and only some small regret. I think you're brilliant and while this setback will sting, I believe you will persevere! All my love to you!
