For me it was pothos!… _Postat av Audaieveryday den 2025-08-19_ What was the plant that got you into plants? For me it was pothos! Growing up my dad always had so many different kinds trailing pothos all over the house. When I moved out I got myself a golden pothos. It grew like a weed and then I got a snow queen and a neon and that was that. I now have so many different types of plants but trailing plants will always be my favorite especially pothos! ## 21 kommentarer ### LittleMorningLatte kommenterade den 2025-08-19 For me it was actually succulents, then I saw my friends absolutely massive golden pothos (like 4-5 feet long) and I wanted smth like that so I got into plants (I still suck at keeping succulents alive XD) #### Nunyabzwx svarade den 2025-08-19 I suck at keeping succulents alive too 🙈🙈 #### Sylvia svarade den 2025-08-19 Me to and they say succulents are easy but mine always die #### Random Strands svarade den 2025-08-20 I’ve been trying my hand at succulents… they hate me but I’m trying. ### Nunyabzwx kommenterade den 2025-08-19 Mine was a boston fern although now i can't keep any fern alive. I've had plants since i was 8 or 10 years old. Also a bunch of pothos. I like trailing plants but now it seems like my favorites are dracaenas and palms.. #### LittleMorningLatte svarade den 2025-08-19 My fave are probably slow climbers like monsteras or some types of philodendrons #### Random Strands svarade den 2025-08-20 Ferns hate my care. They would rather wither than thrive. ### Random Strands kommenterade den 2025-08-19 Mine started with my moms Pothos trailing as a kid. When I moved out she gave me part of it and a spider plant. I’ve kept those forever. Then all of a sudden I got a marble queen one day because I thought she was pretty… fast forward about 6 months later and now I have 150+ plants and props. Living in a jungle. 😊 and I love it. #### Suzanne svarade den 2025-08-19 Good for you! My plants keep me happy too! #### Nunyabzwx svarade den 2025-08-21 WOW 150 + is ALOT. I had 100+ plants until this year. I've been downsizing alot this summer. When i had 100 + it was too many for my 1 bedroom apartment with only 1 east facing window and the rest north facing. (I have growlights everywhere though) They were all squished together i couldn't see alot of them so i decided to downsize. I think I'll keep about 50 of them. That way i can enjoy them all. #### Random Strands svarade den 2025-08-21 Yes then there is that. Trying to see the beauty in them all is hard. I have a small space also and have tried giving a few away. I just ordered a new shelf to replace an old small one that should help. My biggest “try” is staying out the stores and online ordering or buying any more. I do have one corner in living room but I feel they are all cramped. So I’m working on it. 😌🤪😞😵‍💫 it’s so hard. 🤣 #### Sylvia svarade den 2025-08-22 I want a jungle 😁😁🪴🌱🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴😒🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 ### Yolanda kommenterade den 2025-08-19 Pothos for sure I’m so addicted 💜💜 ### PlantsInHarlem kommenterade den 2025-08-19 Pothos for me too, but snake plants have my heart. ❤️ #### LittleMorningLatte svarade den 2025-08-19 I'm sorry but I just have an unexplainable dislike for snake plants T-T #### PlantsInHarlem svarade den 2025-08-19 My inexplicable dislike is the spider plant. We’ve all got one. #### LittleMorningLatte svarade den 2025-08-19 Valid ### harper kommenterade den 2025-08-19 when i was a little kid, i found a broken trailing jade (peperomia rotundifolia) stem on the sidewalk and threw it in some soil out of curiosity. i've always had plants in my house growing up but now they're slowly taking over since (in the past few years) we've been able to keep them alive lol. ### Mysti M kommenterade den 2025-08-19 I really only became more serious about the hobby a few years ago. I have always had a few plants but nothing exciting. But I went to a bridal shower in 2012 and they gave everyone a small Oxalis. She is still with me....not impressive right now, but she has produced corms over the years and I am on a mission to get her big and lush again! ### Sylvia kommenterade den 2025-08-19 Spider 🕷️ plant ### plantmother kommenterade den 2025-08-20 Snake plant! My ex got me one when I moved into my own space and then I bought myself a pothos and the rest was history haha --- _Planta-communityn (https://getplanta.com). Läsning är öppen för alla.
