So what if a plant I’m looking for isn’t an option of plants they have on here? Can you add the plant?

Yes you can, I just look for one that’s in the same genus of plants

So like for instance if they don’t have a certain type of pothos I’ll look for another pothos (epipremnum) to add instead

You can type it out and click request to be added. Then until they add it, you can add the closest plant variety you can find. You can give it a nickname of the actual plant you have.
