I just bought one for $19.99 at Whole Foods. Literally the shock of the century! 😂 I guess it isn’t THAT shocking now, it was just completely unexpected. So many stores here in SoCal sell the same old stuff all the time. This time, the Whole Foods not only had a 'Paraíso Verde', but they setup this little rare plant shelf (which they never do, usually all their plants are together.. all $20 plants. _Philodendron_ 'Ring of Fire' variegata, _Begonia maculata_ (maybe overpriced?), _Xanthosoma_ 'Mickey Mouse taro', _Alocasia zebrina_ and 'Jacklyn'. Something else too that I’m forgetting. And now I hear Gloriosum is available at Lowe’s & Home Depot.
WOW! Talk about hitting the jackpot. I seldom visit Whole Foods but it may have to be added to my plant hunting list of places. We don't always find exciting plants here either, but it's a wonderful thing to stumble upon these hard to find beauties. Happy hunting and enjoy your beautiful new plant!🌿💚
I would wrap some spaghnum moss around the stem, in a spot just above where I would want to cut it. This way you can grow some roots in advance, before you cut. It will allow you to keep the top half looking immaculate, even after a cut, because it will already have roots to support it
I've already rooted many of the aerial roots for that purpose. Now I just have to decide if I'm going to prop it or leave it alone. I'm scared to cut it! LOL
I just bought one on Saturday for $11.99! At a garden center.
Wow, that's wonderful! Enjoy!
Beautiful
Thank you! 🌿💚
Hey Peggy! So glad I saw this video because I have a baby verde and I want it to thrive. I currently have her in my milsbo tall but she isn’t living her best life so from your video I now think I should move her to my south facing window.
Hi Crystal! Thanks for watching. I hope moving it works for you. Mine had a rough start, but once I put it in a place it liked, it has been easy street. Best of luck with yours!
Great find. I need to get out and shop and stop the deliveries.
Happy hunting! It's seems other viewers have been finding them at even lower prices. Go get yours!
Peggy! Still do not have one....but for a grea!t price, if I ever find one, it will jump in my arms! Beautiful thanks for this spotlight!
You are so welcome!
I finally have one. It's a beautiful plant. However, it lags shorter stems. Thank you.
My new one also has shorter stems. Perhaps that will change as the leaves get longer and the plant matures. Happy growing!
I got one online. Good price. Didn't do well though. Dropped all the beautiful leaves. I now have a plant with one small green leaf and a possible that hasn't started developing. No more bottling, even though it is under a grow light by a humidifier. Not really worth it, IMO. Still beautiful, but yeah.
Don't give up on it. Mine went through a rough acclimation period. After that, it started putting out leaves with nice patterns. I don't do anything special to it. Have you fertilized at all?
Going to my Publix today! Thanks Peggy,greetings from NE Florida🏝
Hi and thanks for watching. Happy plant hunting!
How lovely!! I wasn't familiar with the brand until you showed the pot, and then it hit me. That's the same pot that came with my Alocasia Jacklyn! It's so nice to see these growers making harder to come by plants accessible to every day people. I'll have to keep an eye out for this next time I go to the grocery store :) Thanks Peggy!
I'm on the lookout for a Jacklyn. Saw one once and didn't get it. I've been kicking myself since. 😧 Paraiso's are popping up everywhere. Hopefully yours will find you soon!😊
Beautiful modeling! So nice!
Thank you very much! 🌿💚
Thank you so much 😀
Mine has grown huge. I love it
🙌🌿💚
Oh Peggy. Thank you. I love the plant and will be searching for one.
You are so welcome. After a rough patch, it has become one of my favorites. Happy plant hunting!
Wow what a deal. I have not seen this in a big box store. Your plant looks good. I would definitely get one if I see it. Thanks for the video.
You are so welcome!
I bought four of the same Paraiso Verdes at Kroger a few months ago for $1.40 each. They were marked down when no one wanted them. They looked pretty sad, but for $1.40 the pot alone was worth that. I gave away three of them, kept one. Mine died. The one I gave to my mom is doing well.
What a bargain. Sounds like the plants had some issues going on prior to their rescue. Glad to hear at least one survived. Thanks for watching!
That’s insane. I feel like soon we’ll be hearing about Pink Princesses for a dollar, since I’m seeing them at all the big box stores just sitting idly… nobody buying them. 🫤 But I think people are finally understanding now, like how certain species grow and mature, or that certain vines need a support, or might get too big, etc. So people aren’t impulse-shopping as much. They’re hopefully researching plants! Haha 😂
Great find! Dieffenbachia "Camouflage" has a similar appearance and was considered an affordable alternative when prices were very high.
I'd never heard that before but see the similarity. Thanks for sharing!🙌🌿💚
They’re leggy & many sellers won’t carry them anymore because they’re a pain. I imagine that’s why they’re being sold in grocery stores.
Well, you can't please everyone. Whatever the reason they are now in grocery stores, I'm thrilled to have found mine! Thanks for watching.
