      I got some great ones recently from Steve's Leaves, also The Moss Pole, both are 10/10 shipping. Dew Violet in WA also fabulous. Canopy Plants does a great job shipping. Make sure to add on insulation/ winter shipping with a heat pack. . There is a local place here in WA I've been wanting to go called Peace Love & Happiness, but their shipping reviews are pretty low. The variety of rare stuff looked decent though.

      Thank you, thank you, thank you; it’s just what I needed to know! I can’t wait to get started; it’s so much fun shopping for new plants, isn’t it?!

      Mostly smaller plants, since I’m reaching a size limit because of home size, and maybe hubby, too…🙄! I am particularly fond of flashy plants with great color, anything unique and pretty. I guess that’s about all plants, so that’s a pretty wide-open field, wouldn’t you say? TIA…

      It is.. I've been sucked into the Palmstreet and Blosm live shows... $1 sniper bids are just invigorating 😆 🤣. You might look at Dew Violet than. They have some absolutely gorgeous small plants, obviously a lot of violet cultivars, but also some others that are super pretty.

    I know the feeling! I keep adding plants to cart and going through the process of shipping it and then getting cold feet at the credit card section and closing the tab and then coming back hours later to snoop on the plants again lol, if they have a tracker then they probably think I’m crazy lol. But I second Steve’s leaves and canopy plant co, and also planet desert is a good one

    I still wish we could somehow have a place on Planta where we could swap babies. That way I would have someplace for my props to go, and know they had a good home… (I would hope!)

      Messages would be nice too. Definitely check out Blossm. I don't use it for plant care, it's no where near as great as this app. But the shops, swaps and ability to message is nice

    I’ve heard palmstreet is pretty good. Personally I shop from whatnot. A lot of the sellers do $1 starting auctions of super pretty plants both with starter plants/cuttings to 4in/6in plants. Rare plants would obviously be a lot more expensive but they have quite a range. Packaging is great (part of how they’re rated) & most of the sellers are super knowledgeable & just good vibes overall. (Sorry if I sound like a walking advertisement lmao)

      That would be a blast! After listening to the two of you and you’re back-and-forth texts, I just opened the Whatnot, the Palmstreet, and the Blossm apps… I feel like a kid on Christmas morning; I can’t wait to play with them! TXS for all this info you guys… (let’s see if my husband feels the same…🙏🏻!)

    If you’re in the PNW, check out peace, love and happiness club in Seattle. They ship, you support a local business, and you can buy in the winter without worrying about what horrors your plants are going through on their way to you or having to send them in a hermetically sealed iron box so they don’t die…

      Have you gotten from them? Shipped? Just curious cuz the review on their page were abysmal for shipping. Like multiple 1-2 star, poor pkging and poor plants. I decided not to ship and just make a trip since they had some good variety, and they look great online.

      I live in Seattle so I’ve bought multiple times in person but never shipped them. But wow, if people are dinging them for shipping then I’m so disappointed!

    I just had someone as me about the LE Scales. It looks like DewViolet might be closed up till spring when they do a local Indoor Plant Festival expo

      😱🥲🙄😤… too bad about Dew Violet! I was really looking forward to getting that pretty dark green violet, you know the primalina… Oh well, what do you know about LE Scales? Is it located in the PNW?

      1 j'aime
    • Wolfen 🐺

      I'm sure they will have more Primulina in spring. As well as more Violets. The LE Scales is from the violet breeder (E. Lebetskaya) i believe she is Russian?? DewViolet is in WA and they have plants originated from Asia and Russia. I just pulled off some leaves to see if I can get some baby plants

      So if the PrimUlina…😵‍💫… isn’t a violet, then what is it? And, by the way, if you share a few of those leaves with me, I promise I won’t tell anybody about it…😁!

    • Wolfen 🐺

      It's a primulina... they are in the same family as the African Violet, but it is a different subfamily, Genus and Species

      If i can get a baby plant i will send you one. I've never propped this species before, so it could go horribly wrong 😆
