[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi, Sylvia!!!! Thank you so much!!! I do love being able to shop from my own collection :).

[@duncanpage1556]

Cool little pots! Great video ,enjoy your week Gena!! 💚💯

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks Duncan! It's our Thanksgiving this week. Thursday will be enjoyable for sure LOL. You have a great week too :).

[@SheHasPlants]

I love the aethetics of your place and the gorgeous plants, needless to say. This was such a comforting watch!

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thank you so much!!!! I’ve seen some of your videos and I can say the same for you 💚💚💚. Thanks again!!! It’s always fun to hear from fellow creators 🥰.

The vintage planters are amazing! I can tell you have collected them for a while. I remember African violets in both grandmothers homes, but no other other plants. I wonder when indoor plants became popular. I bet the 60's? But you are right succulents are perfect!!!!

[@ttschrock7126]

I love the old jadite planters from depression years!

[@ttschrock7126]

I love that fun sweater too!!!!!

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi, Tamra!!!! Those are all planters that were collected on my thrifting adventures this year. Maybe some from last year too. I think I've shared every one of them in a thrifting video previously :). I'm thinking the 60s as well. Definitely in full swing in the 70s. I'm sure plants like spider plants and african violets (to name a couple) have been around forever. Oh....ferns were HUGE in the victorian era. Just remembered that. So I'd say indoor plants have been popular for forever LOL.

Thank you for this video! I am getting into succulents and you taught me everything I did not know🐦😳

[@ThePinkTrellis]

I’m so glad! Succulents are so addicting :)

[@dragon2221964]

Love ur aesthetic, Gena. It's so bright, happy, cheerful, and whimsical. I just love it!

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate that!!! 😊😊😊

[@SDQuilter]

I loved this video and so did Jen. Those Planters are just adorable, I believe my grandmother had the two birds. Nice choice of succulents to go in them you chose a great place for them and I love the crystals. At first I thought green adventuring and then maybe green agate. I have no idea but it is lovely😊😊😊

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi!!! I'm so glad you two enjoyed the video. I love your guesses on the stone. I've been trying to learn more about all of mine (and some I don't have YET LOL) and will compare those two names to what I have. I'm really enjoying learning about them again :). I hope you guys are having a lovely Sunday :). Thank you!!!!

[@BoyGeorgeGenius]

Nora is adorbs ❤ (love the planters!)

[@ThePinkTrellis]

She is a sweetie for sure. Thank you!!!! :D

[@JuanellHopper]

Those planters are so cute. I used to have a cow. Love succulents

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thank you!!!! I think the super fun animal planters like this (the more colorful the better LOL) are just PERFECT for succulents. Happy you love them too :).

[@JuanellHopper]

@ThePinkTrellis I have so many succulents. I counted my plants not long ago. I have more cacti and succulents than anything. Didn't really know I had that many 🤔 having too much fun I guess 😆

[@ThePinkTrellis]

@@JuanellHopper they add up fast! I think I probably have as many succulents and cacti as Hoya! Maybe more 😁.

[@cherieholmquist7259]

Such a fun video.😊 I'm still in Texas for a few more days but can't wait to get back to Colorado and back to my plants!! Love all your cute little pots !! Such a sweet scene and the crystals really enhance it!!❤

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks Cherie!!!! Hope you are having a nice time in Texas!!! I know that feeling of wanting to get back home to the things we love 😊.

[@cherylsignor9646]

Adorable! My patella pink arrived on Wednesday (so fast!) and it’s adorable too. Thanks, Gena!

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi, Cheryl!!! Thanks for putting a big smile on my face :D. So glad you got the patella pink!!!!! Have a great new week!!!!

[@sylviawood6089]

Hi Gena and Nora, thank you for this fun relaxing video. Love your cute vintage pots. I thought it was so cute the way Nora was just talking to you. Gena I wish you and your family a Blessed Thanksgiving Day. Much love ❤🦃

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi, Sylvia!!!! Thank you!!! So glad you enjoyed it. She was SUPER talkative. She's been a little goofy lately. Goofy and sweet :). Thank you so much and I wish you and yours a blessed Thanksgiving as well. xxoo

Love these planters so much! I think you're so brave for doing no drainage with succs for some reason. I just put a homealomena in no drainage with no issue. But for some reason the succs really scares me in no drainage. I think part of it is that your no drainage is not clear so your blind and just guestimating. I definitely have over watering tendencies. I so want to do this like you did, but I am not sure I've got the confidence 🤪....... but you did a WONDERFUL JOB! 🥰🐦🐈🐖

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks Aubrey! I haven't failed with one yet!!!! (keeping my fingers crossed LOL). It really does take a light hand with watering and an observant eye. You can't just forget about them, but at the same time don't pay too much attention to them LOL. And the nice thing is, if you accidentally get too much water in there, you can just tip the pot as I showed in the video :). You should give it a try with a succulent that you aren't too attached to. See how it goes for a year with that one (maybe even less time depending on the outcome). It really is super easy with succulents and cacti in my experience.

[@marlenealberty373]

Hi Gena, your green crystal looks like Green Calcite. Fluorite is denser. Thank you for your tip on caring etc. for no drainage plants.

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Hi! Thanks for the ID on that one. I am thinking you are right. There's so much to learn!!!! Thanks for watching :).

[@justinamontgomery2618]

This month has flown so fast...December is almost here crazy! Hope the family is doing well..and happy growing :)...such a nice video loved it! And see you soon butterfly...xoxo ox love tina

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks, Tina! So glad you liked it! 💚💚💚 I can't believe you haven't had any snow yet!!!! We had some a few weeks ago. Oh...the day before I put up my Christmas tree. That was my push LOL. And it's supposed to snow here for Thanksgiving so that will be fun. I can't believe it's almost December too. The end of the year is definitely flying by. Thanks for stopping in and saying hello. I always love chatting with you here. Have a great week my beautiful friend!!! xxoo

[@shadesofidaho]

Those planters are so cute. I have three little deer planters on my kitchen counter. I put the small pots with the baby plants into them. The light green might be Celadon.

[@ThePinkTrellis]

Thanks, Chris! I bet the deer planters look adorable! I'll look into celadon. Thanks for the possible ID :). Have a great Sunday!!!
