What I would give to have an albo but can’t find them anywhere that is less than $200. Any ideas of how to get even a cutting that is affordable?

See if there’s an aroid plant club or houseplant Facebook group in your area. They are more likely to have members who might affordable cuttings, be more transparent than your average store, and you don’t have to pay shipping if you’re near by. Bonus if you make local plant friends ☺️ Some groups even offer trades for cuttings!

my sister got three leaves off facebook marketplace. i say that’s ur best bet

FB market place or FB trade groups. Plant Purge USA is a good one. I’ve seen decent one leaf cuttings going as low as $35. You should be able to find something for 50$ shipped pretty easily.

For example example, 3 leaf rooted albo for $75. Pretty good deal.

I found mine on Facebook. Group in my local area that you can sell and trade plants. I found one for $150. Nice one. The mother plant was beautiful 😻

I would try Etsy actually! Pretty reasonable prices

### shalynbri commented on 2024-03-26

I got a tiny one for $25

I would love to buy it!

#### shalynbri replied on 2024-03-26

Sorry I mean I bought mine for that - it’s slow but they are slowly coming down in price as they become more common just keep looking. I agree to watch on Marketplace

Might want to try Offerup. I got so many of my plants from there!

### Joycita commented on 2024-03-26

Etsy has a lot options for cuttings and small baby plants

You can get them from Etsy. I just got a 1 leaf rooted Albo, high variegation, for $130
