      Morrison's supermarket is the cheapest but you don't get the range. This week I bought an 8cm asparagus Serengeni for 30p. 1 dying stem but otherwise healthy. I think the only reason it was reduced was because it was end of range.

      Local markets are usually the best bet - although even those have crept up quite a bit since I started house planting in 2020. I live near a big one in Leeds and have a browse regularly. Common and popular plants like snake plants, peace lilies, dragon trees etc are all around the £6-8 mark for a medium size suitable for a desk or windowsill. I've never been to Dobbies but judging by this video it's far more expensive than average, a decent selection of plants but they don't look particularly well looked after. I won't be in a rush to shop there.

    The beautiful philodendron u just picked up is a philodendron narrow plant, is the same plant I am growing currently, really easy to care for. :). The Calathea
    Is so hard to make it thrive. I totally agree with u bout the Calathea is a very fussy plant. I used to have one beautiful Calathea plant, the leaves kept turning yellow, no matter how much I take excellent care. I used to have 1 pink and one 1 anthrium plants that thrive in a grow tent. Sadly my 2 anthrium died recently. I have one Pothos plant thriving right now. I got some beautiful bamboo plants continue to thrive.

    Plant negligence in garden centres is annoyingly common! Especially for new plant parents that don't know the red flags to avoid, yet. If there's one place that should know how to look after a wide range of plants, it should be a garden centre! 🤔 #wingeoftheweek

    At 5:24 when you honed in on that succulent, I saw a tiny one earlier yesterday. Then came home watched this, had to go back and get it. It was the only one left, never seen them before. I had picked it up looked at it but knew nothing of how it would look bigger. It was in bad shape but a good watering and looks better this morning. Little Warty is says. Coolio. My aloe Vera grows like weeds but it’s a skinny one like shown here. Shoots out boat loads of babies but it stays outside in the shade (Texas heat, too hot in full sun) and it’s happy

    Is that a big box store?; What a nice variety that aren't generally seen in big box stores across the pond.
    The dark philodendron looks like a dark lord. I would have a meltdown and buy more than I should.
    Birkins revert to the beautiful rojo congo. They don't produce the white striped variegation until more mature. When they start reverting they get these ruddy brown splashes on the leaves.
