When that NON-PLANT FRIEND visits my tropical garden | "Are the plants sold by the kilos?"(

When a non-plant lover visits you and your garden, what is it that they tend to do or say? Here we have a good laugh at ourselves - how we are seen through the eyes of a normal person and that it is really a bizarre world from their point of view. Featured in the video is my bestie Angelina Ong and my beloved anthurium magnificum, anthurium luxurian, anthurium regale, lots of philodendrons, alocasias, heliconias and countless others! An oh yes, we talk about plant pricing and the evils of variegated plants too.

I felt so nervous when she was handling your "$2000 plant". So scared one leaf come off and she says "Oops, now it's worth $1000" 😅

[@leafing.around]

Thats will be so funny! 😂😂The leaf will be worth the laughter!!

As a disabled person, I gotta say I'd *much* rather the society values us as much as the plant community values variegated plants! But you're so right, "cacat" is special and precious and beautiful in our own ways. Your friend is DA BOMB! Love how she sees the true value in things: as food xD

[@jessipxd]

as someone who grew up with 4 disabled people, i gotta say, it takes knowing one to fully appreciate the beauty of the diversity of humans :) but thank you for this great analogy, will definitely use it if someone starts to feel insecure about themselves!😊 hope youre doing good!

Love your garden. I don't have very rare plants but I have a lot and non plant people can't understand why so many and why I still don't have enough. This parody is real for us plant parents.

Hey, how about doing a reverse of this theme. Over-protective crazy plant person, don't touch like this, it will hurt this plant. Don't dig your ear and touch my plant. The oily substance will block my plants food. Say sorry to this plant, he don't like to be slap by your chunky thigh hahaha

Gracias, GRACIAS Irene y Angelina!!! Muy agradable video. Solo en una parte me quería morir cuando Angel cortó la hoja en el 3:47 minutos. En lo demás fue una forma muy amena de presentar las plantas ante gente que no nos entenderán, pues los que las amamos las vemos como algo único y pagamos lo que no haríamos por otras cosas. Un abrazote desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 para ustedes en Malaysia 🇲🇾 🇵🇷😊👍 🌱🌲🌳🌴🌾☘🍀☘🌾🌴🌳🌲🌱 Thank you, THANK YOU Irene and Angelina !!! Very nice video. Only in part did I want to die when Angel cut the leaf at 3:47 minutes. Otherwise it was a very pleasant way of presenting the plants to people who will not understand us, because those of us who love them see them as something unique and we pay what we would not do for other things. A hug from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 for you in Malaysia 🇲🇾 🇵🇷😊👍

In my country, almost all the plants in your garden are "BALATAK" which means you can find them everywhere, some of the exotic plants are the wealth of our forests which are looted to be sold out of our country at exorbitant price.
