# favourite plants thread 🪴 what’s your favourite plant of all time?…

_Posted by ashten on 2023-07-01_

favourite plants thread 🪴  
what’s your favourite plant of all time? attach a photo if you own it, i’d love some wish list inspiration!  
it’s tough, but mine is the peperomia hope! i’ve attached a photo of mine. i recently cut it back to propagate \& encourage new growth.  
it’s a simple plant, quick growing, and i’m a sucker for trailing plants with small, succulent leaves.  
(i also posted this is “post your plants” so i apologize if you see the post twice!)

Gosh it’s so hard to choose! My favorite today is my donkey tail succulent because I grew it from a tiny 2 inch pot, and it’s gotten so long this spring/summer! It’s also sprouting more “tails” at the top plus some more from the leaves that I propagated too.  
Your peperomia hope is gorgeous! I have a tiny one, but it is growing quickly!

Wow, it’s so splashy! I love it 😍  
I love both silver dollar vine and pep hope for different reasons. Silver dollar vine is definitely just like a succulent that I don’t have to water very often and I love that it’s a unique plant to my collection. I also am just personally drawn to plants with rounds leaves. The pep hope has a different growth pattern, so it’s worth having both! I also struggle a lot with peps, so I’m glad that the hope is growing really nicely for me 🙂 if you ever see silver dollar coins while you’re out plant shopping and it’s a good price, definitely snatch it up!

#### ashten replied on 2023-07-02

#### Steppy replied on 2023-07-02

I got the donkey tail, and string of pearls to go with my sting of turtles. I definitely will post when I get them!

Right now it’s this Begonia. I’ll post another of its flowers.

Gorgeous flowers!

#### ashten replied on 2023-07-01

what a beauty! i love the classic begonia leaf shape with a ruffled edge… and there’s so much variety in begonias in terms of colour and pattern!

My favorite plant is my Alocasia Frydek 😍

#### ashten replied on 2023-07-02

oooh alocasias are beautiful, \&\& your frydek is stunning. i sold my only alocasia, a black velvet, a while back though, i can’t deal with the heartbreak of their tendency to lose old leaves when new ones come in.

#### Ana replied on 2023-07-03

That tends to go away as they establish their roots. My Frydek has been holding on to 6 leaves for a while and it is now unfurling its 7th and all look great 🤗
