Ashley: Your videos are really a comfort and joy for me. I'm unable to garden outside anymore, and now our house is becoming a large, leafy garden. Your charming attitude, self-deprecating humor and knowledge of interesting plants has been such a huge help. I have even gone back to watch your earlier videos when there isn't a new one out. Your comment today about having a tough time and getting outside just to feel better is so spot on. And I know you lost one of your fur babies recently, and my heart breaks for you. I try to send you a little cosmic positive energy everyday. I'm sorry for whatever is worrying you currently, and just know that for all the smiles and joy and entertainment you've brought us, I'm sure we can send back to you, too. I wish you the best, and take care of yourself.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thank you so much for the kind words!

[@ellieraggs]

I would be so overwhelmed with so many choices! Like taking a kid into a big toy store and telling them they can only pick one! But what FUN!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Completely!

[@genshinF2Play]

I FREAKING love these type of plant videos

[@ic3f4iry]

“I feel like this is gonna be a over budget but worth it video” girl me & my boyfriend giggled because that’s so relatable. 😭😭i would have the same reaction as you at the beginning I get sooo excited seeing new plants in person. I live in arizona though, so it’s so hard to keep plants happy with such dry, hot weather.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Haha I knew it was going to happen! Thanks for watching!

[@lauriandino3148]

Best video ever “ Plants are gorgeous- different but beautiful “ super Great Prices - they are All healthy” Great Job- Well done 👍

[@darrellmcknight8326]

White wizard is white and green leaves with all white stems. White knight has green and white leaves with purple and white stems. White princess white, green, and pink leaves with pink and white stems.

Thank you Ashley. For letting me know about this place. I was in Love, the people there are awesome. I found some good deals on Hoyas. And just so you know I mentioned you and they knew right away who you are 😊. God Bless.

[@JacquelineJax]

Lots of lovely plants. Great store. We have Mississauga greenhouse that’s really nice but small plants mostly which I love because they are so perfect with no bugs. Great greenhouse.

[@litachoe8385]

[@marleneprescod8494]

Thank you Ashley for this amazing plant tour the Hoyas and the fishbone cactus were my favorites. I was in love with all the plants your haul was also a good one.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@debrahaynes2767]

😅😅😅 you took me out talking about the missing strawberry begonia.. I can relate...thanks for sharing ❤

I would definitely have a hard time picking out what to get lol 😆

Nice haul Ashley, beautiful nursery.

I'd like to see more of the begonia section, the few you showed looked so gorgeous!

[@Cravenn5]

🥰♥️🪴🪴lovely your vids are so epicly awesome thumbs way up… now I’m going to my area nurseries after buying 4 plants this week already. Lol totally identified when you mentioned what happens to that one plant 💭😂

[@1101naomi]

So huge and so many gorgeous plants!! I’m so jelly!!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

💚💚

[@amybeck6039]

Back in April I bought a little 3 leaf plant on clearance for $3. It didn’t have a label and the lady in the tropical department couldn’t remember what it was but thought it was a type of philodendron. I’ve been trying to google it and haven’t had any luck so I messaged the place I got it from, told them all the details of when I got it and what it was doing now and sent a picture of it. They said it was a red arrow syngonium. I googled it and they’re right!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Great find!!

[@JacquelineJax]

Loved the video. Watched to the end. And yes I’m planning on buying a zebra. I saw a grown one online and really liked it. I do have the pink zebra Cali and love that. Also love pink plants. Found a great one today at Terra but checked the leaves and tons of eggs and webs. Not going to Terra again because they don’t care for their plants at all. It’s such a shame. I do really like Mississauga. Greenhouse much better or just Home Depot or lowes.

[@pandorar1388]

Wow, so many beauties! I don't think you could have picked anything better than the Anthurium Pterodactyl, I'm adding it to my very long wish list! Thanks for another great plant tour.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for watching!

[@mykale007]

Thanks for this!!! Been stressed myself lately & going to different plant shopping videos. Love the Pothos, Snake Plants, Jade Plants, Scindapsus, Marginata, & my fav so far a Ponytail Palm. I like the Philodendrons & Monsteras but a little intimidated by them. Picked up a Monstera Peru so we’ll see how that goes!!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Sending hugs!

[@elizabethgreco-nieves]

Hi Ashley, that’s one great nursery, a few of the prices are hit and miss, but all the plants seem happy and healthy 🥰. I have a pink birkin for about 6 months now, very easy care, and they are a thing😉🤣, I was skeptical when I first bought it( 24.99 at my local nursery here on Long Island). Still watching so I can’t wait to see what our crazy plant lady picks up🌿🪴🪴 I’m sorry that you are stressed out, I hope everything is ok and improving, and definitely can relate. Plants are great for decompressing and just getting out to be among them really can be a game changer. Hugs🫶

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thank you!

[@teresawingbermuehle4212]

You always luv these massive leaves an yet all your plants are supper small and tidy. Lol

[@JacquelineJax]

Saw a callathea yellow fusion today and loved it accept it had bugs. Was so bummed.

[@mariseladdison7271]

Ashley, thank you for the video. I got my wendlandii in Lowe’s for $14.98. I’m not fan of syngonuim but this plant caught my attention so pretty.

[@cindyvan635]

The Syngonium "Confetti" is really easy, and beautiful. Propagates easy too!!! 💚🤗🌱

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

That is awesome!

[@lindaholder2222]

Hi Ashley nice to see you love your sharing❤😊

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thank you! 🤗

[@dennisbrill6087]

I got mine at Walmart $20 and white knight age be if I had a bunch at least he said you should keep it in the eastern the area so that’s where it is it was in the front afternoon sun but they say you should do in the morning sun South send

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for the tips!

[@jpkpalms7421]

I live in the Greenville SC area, and just happened to find one small hanging basket of syngonium wendlanii at a Home Depot for $20 and didn’t have to think twice about snatching it up. I’ve not seen any more since. I may have to plan a trip to Oakdale soon 😊

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Amazing!!

[@ShirleyWalker-fk9pb]

Great doing a good job you make my day with smile and laughter God has made us unique and we are plants lovers I have these plants already u just have to take the best care give them manure and rain water 🌊 rice water in a few months u will surprise lots of blessings 😂😂❤

[@cherieholmquist7259]

Hi Ashley! I've missed seeing your videos! You are one of my favorite crazy plant ladies!! I bought the Wendlandii from a local garden center. I believe it was in a 4" pot but the plant and leaves are very small?? Maybe 1 to 1-1/2" long. Hopefully it is just a very young plant and the leaves will continue to get larger as the plant grows!?!?🤞 Love your other selections also!!👏👍❤️

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

That is awesome!

[@BogdanAGB]

similar to wedlandii is the syngonium rayii, it's darker and so velvety, I love mine

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Oooo I’ll have to keep an eye out!

[@josetrigueros2012]

I kept my copper plant indoors under lights during the winter ( Chicago). They lost some leaves but kept putting out new leaves. I kept it wet. Survived the indoors and just moved it out this week.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Nice!

[@debrahaynes2767]

So this is my 2nd time watching this video...every time you say what happened to...and laugh, I bust out laughing with you... you videos are awesome

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

😂 thanks for watching!

[@maryarneson5815]

Just watching and that silvery leaf you commented on being delicate appears to be a silver dichondra commonly called silver falls, used frequently as spellers in outdoor/landscaping flower pots, I had a few of them last year they had full blast morning sun against a white house and dried put virtually every day and just kept going, I'd imagine as a house plant they'd do well

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for the info!

[@stephanievarin5030]

I just added a pink birkin to my collection about a month ago and I purchased it as a starter plant. I did some research prior to purchasing it because i did not want to get sucked into a pink congo situation. from what I have researched it is a new hybrid, new leaves will start out pink with the same stripes as regular birkins and will eventually harden off to green and dark green as the leaf ages. Mine is still new and still a baby so I am excited to see how it matures!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for letting me know!

[@darthtraya8305]

I recently got a baby too! I love my birkin so no matter what I think I’ll be happy with however it turns out. My Birkin is probably my easiest plant in my huge collection.

[@fatimagibsonhenley2281]

Amazing plants 🪴

[@gazmatazz3002]

I've heard rumors of birkins pink. Never seen it though glad that it actually does exist! I will grow out a third eyeball n keep all eyes out for one xD great video thank u!

[@kimberlycakes299]

I’m stoked about it. I have to start checking out family owned nurseries out here on the coast of NC.

[@LulaMae21]

I believe Kaylee Ellen did a video on it last year or so... seems the pink won't last, like with pink congos.

[@gazmatazz3002]

@@LulaMae21 ah is it another pink Congo fiasco? Rip.

[@crystalakers9817]

I got my spyngonym like that at Lowe's for $15.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Great find!

[@nildagarcia5398]

[@courtneyhansen3032]

I miss living in Raleigh and being close to so many greenhouses and working at one. But, I'm trying to limit my consumption which is such a huge and undiscussed issue in the plant world. I worked at a greenhouse in Raleigh where I had 70% off common, uncommon, and supplies so it was much more affordable. Now, I have things shipped from private sellers in NC and it gets so pricey. I found my plants highly preferred rainwater versus filtered so I did a DIY rain barrel. I love my blizzard- my friend sent me one from Raleigh. Parieso verde variegate more with temperature versus light :)

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for the tips!

[@canadian_beauty_blogger]

Not me instantly thinking by the title you went back for that $200 alocasia lol

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Hahha 😂

[@gwenncoath8941]

I haven’t been to Oakdale in a while. Looks like I need to make a trip there!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

I was shocked!

[@plantheartbeats]

Wonderful Tour!💜👍

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks so much!

[@nscott13]

Haha! Thanks Ashley.. picked up that champagne jam this morning!!

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Wonderful!!

[@sylviagutierrez7676]

This shop was too crazy good this time,so tempting to get more plants,but you did 👍, 💚🌱🌵☘️💚

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Yes it was!

[@mspurefunk5]

First I have to say your going to love that weylandii it’s really a great plant and a fast grower. I love mine and I didn’t even know I wanted it when I bought it online. I would if bought that double half moon white wizard. You just don’t see plants like that around here! And that’s a good price. I also would of gotten a new pothos snow queen. I had lush one but it died back. I think it’s the prettiest pothos. I love the anthurium you got. I do love those shape leaves but I have so many calathea & don’t have enough to take of another needy high humidity plants. I only live a state away and REALLY want to visit Oakdale. Each time you’ve gone there the selection has been to die for.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks for watching! Love your choices

[@JacquelineJax]

Is it possible to keep a focus small like that moonshine? I love them but have no indoor space left. lol

[@pal98111]

I appreciate your tours. Invest in some good grow lights so your plants can really thrive at home.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Thanks!

[@sandiesorchids9387]

I just got a philodendron red leaf 🍃 for $ 4.99. I hope to go back to that greenhouse soon.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Wonderful!

[@diane5454]

I’m excited to see a plant shopping video that’s not the same ole Home Depot and Lowe’s.

[@zlatamontgomery1593]

Thank you for video. But I’m can’t founded name of plants. ( you did it almost of end of video next to pants - “ Sweetish Ivy”. Green leaves with almost white waffles in the end

[@TheSuluGuy]

Fun fact the plumosa fern or the "asparagus fern" is not a fern at all, it is an angiosperm belonging in the asparagacea family

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Fascinating!

[@-s-k-]

I'm SO jealous you have pterodactyl there! In Europe they don't exist. Ironically the Anthuriums are super cheap in the states and the rest of the plants are insanely expensive... In the EU philos are way cheaper.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Fascinating!!

[@TheworldiseffdUP]

Ashley, you need a real greenhouse on your property so you can create your very own sanctuary to visit when ever you feel down...... 🙂🙂🙂

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

So true!

[@cindyvan635]

Would've picked the Syngonium Wendii also!!! 💚🌱🤗

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

💚💚💚

[@hermithillfarm1123]

Makes me want to move somewhere close to there lol. If I didn't hate being in traffic so hard. I went one time last year and now that's all I talk and think about is Oakdale Greenhouse. I am in love with that place and wish I could work at a greenhouse. Just trade my paycheck for plants 😂

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

I know what you mean!

[@GrowinginNewEngland]

I would go broke if I went there 😂

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

if you and I went to that place together, we might never get out. LOL. i would have been seriously over budget

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Hahaha!

[@rinavickery2563]

I would have picked the Luxurians x radicans, the Pterodactyl

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Great choices!

[@JacquelineJax]

Where do you put all your plants.

[@Ellie.mickyd]

Im honestly glad I don’t live near there because it would be dangerous for my wallet 😂

It is!

[@caitlinkelley2565]

Does anyone know how to keep your Moonshine Snake plant, moonshine 😅 Mine went green over winter and I am sad

[@LulaMae21]

Might need more light? Just spitballing.

[@Zen.....]

The pink birkin is supposedly a chemically induced plant, info from kaylee ellen's vid. Hope you didn't get it, still midway thro this.

[@LulaMae21]

That's what I was thinking, that pink Birkin was the one she made the video about.

[@indaybadiday9724]

I used to live a few mins from there but we moved few wks ago. my collection has dwindled pretty bad between being gone for almost 3 most and moving. this video makes me wanna go plant shopping. ugghhh my husband will not be happy.

I love your videos but I must say Americans are so so obsessed with variegation, it’s quite amusing to watch 😅

[@LulaMae21]

Not all. Plenty of Americans don't care for variegation. I'm not one of them, but I've also loved variegation for many years.
