Is anyone else a Plant Person?
Jump to: Newest in thread
My oddly old-before-my-time hobby is that I collect houseplants. Philodendrons specifically.
Imagine my surprise when the first person I met after coming back to this site a few months ago was also a plant person. It was serendipitous.
Is anyone else a plant person?
More importantly, does anyone have philodendrons to swap?
(I also love other aroids, I don't want to have them feel left out).

Who needs a therapist when you have house plants to talk to? They're great listeners, don't judge, and always bring a breath of fresh air into your space. Plus, they're way cheaper than therapy sessions! |

Just don’t go to the gym and ask if anyone has got any roids they want to swap.  |

I'm doing well at the moment. I've not neglected a houseplant to death for at least 2 years. I have 6 that are currently alive, but they're not thriving....
P.S. I'm a professional gardener

I have a cheese plant and many interesting indoor plants. Even an orchid. They are doing well. |

I have philodendron brasil, it's new to my house, it came from a big DIY store and it cost £1.
Its looking nice and healthy with good variegated leaves and peach coloured new shoots. I want to get it a post to climb up.
If it thrives, you're welcome to have some of its offspring OP. |

"I’ve got a Bonsai in my office and a Peace Lilly.
Can’t really say I’m green fingered but, I find them relaxing.
I need recommendations for a slightly different indoor office plant"
A rat tailed cactus is my suggestion. |

 my mother gave me some cuttings from hers a few weeks ago and I’m currently fingers crossed for them to take!
I used to have a lovely one hanging in my bathroom until my dickhead ex killed it. |

I bought a spider plant from the middle of my nearest supermarket, because they are supposed to purify the air in the home.
All that happened was the spider plant became a home for those tiny, midge things which hover in front of my computer monitors late at night. You know, those midge things which I can never trap between my hands, no matter how fast I clap.

I’ve just started getting houseplants. I’m not gonna lie, some of them have had a hard time because I forgot to water them  but I’m really trying now. I have a baby monstera from a friend on here so I’m going to be a better plant mum now |

Maybe I need to be a findom who takes payment in rare plants.
Even better - maybe as their service they could just come round and water them all for me. |

"Make that 39! House plants lol"
I recently started a little database to keep track of info about them.
I’ve got over 50 in my little house.
I should never have started the database because I just didn’t want to know how bad it’s got. |
