Houseplant Unboxing Real time chat | Hirts Garden Plants | String of Daggers vs String of Arrows

hi guys i'm lauren welcome to my channel it's so good to see you guys thank you guys for popping in

today i got some plant mail so we're gonna open some plant mail this is actually from

hertz gardens so there's quite a few in here um i never ordered just one

if you're gonna pay for the shipping you might as well get it all right

so i have a couple plants in here we're just gonna take a look at those today

all right so the box came a little crushed but that's okay we're just

gonna roll with it and hope everything's good okay

let me just cut everything open all right so it looks like the plants came out really really well

i like how they package them all in the bubble wrap you can kind of see here

this is the um arpeggio woody eye linearis i believe let me undo uh

i love how they use the bubble wrap because it actually protects the foliage

and then i can reuse it later which is really nice

oops dropped a bit it says heartless string of hearts

and they're gary's plants so we know they're amazing we love gary's plants

there you go you can see it's very much like a string of hearts um i believe it's also

similar to the string of spades or maybe they are the same thing i'm not 100 sure

um i ordered one that said string of spades and then the other one said

hoya linearis this looks like a string of spades to me um i'm sorry not hoya linears um

sarah peggio woody eye linears and i believe that is string of needles but it had a picture of this

the heartless string of hearts uh also known as the string of arrows so i'm pretty excited

so let's see what this one is

they both have the same picture a string of arrows

oh okay so this is the string of arrows one here you can see here

where is it here we go string of arrows so you can see how thick and chunky like an arrowhead it is

and then this other one when compared to it gosh there you go you can see them side by side

you see that chunky and then these are thinner but they're like the string of

hearts and they'll grow like the string of hearts so it's pretty exciting pretty cool so

i am excited to see both of these grow okay so now that that's out of the way

there's a couple more plants in here i use that i never ordered just one

this is a peperomia of some kind

you can tell because it's actually it's got its little blooms sticking out right there

it's got a little strand right there very exciting stuff it's going to need some humidity oh my gosh

it is rotted a little bit this was shipped a little too damp you can see translucent

uh hopefully yeah it's all wet under here i like how they tape down the uh packaging though

all right so i will have to look and check and see what kind of peperomia this is and

i'll give you an overview of everything with the names once we're done there we go

this one is another peperomia oh my goodness i can't remember the name of it

it's like a peperomia angulata but it comes in with this beautiful lush red foliage

it's just amazing uh parallel peperomia parallel i don't remember the scientific name for it though

but here you can see how it's like the peperomia angulata

so the pepperoni parallel it's pretty amazing i love it um i've seen it a bunch of times and i

just i kept resisting it you know i shouldn't have resisted but uh the foliage comes in like a very

orangish reddish color it's very cool so i'm excited to watch this one grow it

grows very similarly to the pepperoni angular though so that would be awesome to see oh yay

oh my gosh you can already see it this is a ming aurelia tree you can see it's got the white

and it's got green there and it's just this little teeny tiny tree in a two inch pot oh my god i'm so

excited for this i saw a bonsai version of it when i did a greenhouse tour ages ago um

i can't remember the name of the greenhouse now i recognize it if i saw it um but it's one of the

only greenhouse tours that i actually did outside of a big box store and they had the most beautiful

ming aurelia bonsai tree they did and i absolutely loved it but i didn't have the money for it at the

time and i didn't know how to take care of bonsai i still don't know how to take care of bonsai

the ficus one is down there still alive though so i figured i'd give this a try it was a two

for the price of one deal on the website so pretty stoked but i'm going to try to train this up to be

a bonsai and it's just i love the variegation on it it's so beautiful and i don't know

there's just something very aesthetically pleasing about it and it's just really cool it's got new

growth coming in as well it needs a little bit of humidity but it's doing really well um

oh my gosh this is a little syngonium oh my goodness

these are all packaged really well they're a little wet you know but really well okay this

is oh this is oh my gosh okay so it's a little crumpled but this is the syngonium neon robusta

which means that it's gonna get beautiful pale pink foliage as it grows look at that

oh my gosh so it's gonna be a lighter more pale pink than the syngonium maria and then it gets

uh more and more pink it looks like it's got like a little bit of green going on

um i don't know if it fades to green as it gets older

but this will be fun to watch this is gonna be so fun to watch girl i'm so excited all right so

make sure you hit up my instagram and my tick tock add that awkward cake girl so that we can see more

okay oh my gosh this was a wishlist plant ah get the hair out of my mouth

there we go this i kept seeing for like 40 bucks

for like a little two flipping thing and i don't want to pay

40 bucks for an unrooted cutting i don't want to do it so i waited and i bid my time and and

i don't know if the tag is in the way but it's a hoya macrophylla macrophylla i'm not sure how you

say it but these leaves are so look look head test comparatively remember i'm into peperomia

okay so most of the leaves that i deal with are very small even my other hoya back here

are smaller but look how big the thing is like the size of my palm look at that and then it's

got white variegation on its edges and it's got this beautiful veination in the center

just oh my gosh and it's got a little rudy root popping out the bottom do you see that very cool

and it's got a function tag because this is part of the collector's set for the um

hertz gardens so very cool very exciting all right and then this is another ming

aurelia tree i'm not gonna undo that one because my battery's about to die i think

that was it that was all all right so i'm gonna go ahead and unwrap these and then i'll

just show them to you individually and then we'll talk about them a little bit more okay

all right so here we have that variegated ming aurelia it comes in with a light yellow

variegation and then it fades to a creamy white i also really enjoy the stem because it has these

markings on it almost like little polka dots or lines it's just really cool and you can see it

almost looks like a ficus the way it has its variation on it it's just really neat this is

a syngonium neon robusta this one comes in with this beautiful pale pink foliage you can see it's

unfurling right here i believe when it doesn't have enough light it can revert back to green

but i'm going to experiment with that a little bit more as it grows and see what's going on with that

you can see a little bit of variation right there

this is that hoya macrophylla you can see the white outer edges better and then it does

appear to have some splashing on it which will be very interesting and then there's the new growth

right there i know it's going to need a lot of sun and i wonder if i give it enough if it'll

have a more splashing effect on it regardless it's just beautiful plant highly recommend

uh this is the one that has the beautiful red leaves this is a peperomia try nervous

and these are actually little teeny tiny flowers that you can get seeds from so that's pretty cool

it takes a while though and then here is the foliage you can see

so um if you want more foliage you can cut off the little they call them doodles i don't know

what the technical term is it it is for it um but yeah it's really neat it's not too

wet i'm just gonna let it dry out and keep letting it soak up humidity and perk up more

it's already perked up quite a bit just sitting in my greenhouse for a little bit

this is a peperomia petola also known as the peperomia parallel it does have red stems and its

foliage comes in a reddish orange color and then fades to this beautiful watermelon green but it

retains the red stem so that's just uh oh my gosh and it shipped really well

pepperoni and notoriously shipped terribly like the other pepperoni you saw but this

one came in just beautifully and its leaves are very thick and chunky not delicate at all

you can see a little better there all right so this is the string of daggers or string of spades

it is called the sarapagio woody eye linearis because that is what it is it's just a mutated

form of it so that's pretty cool and then this is also a sarapagia woody eye linearis but it's

another mutated form called the string of arrows so that's why it's got the thicker chunkier leaves

and it grows a little bit more compact you can see them combined side by side here and it's very hard

to believe that both of these are mutations from string of needles it's just so cool what plants

can do so but they are both sara peggia woody i linearis i went and i looked it up and i double

checked and that is what they are so just two different kinds thank you so much for watching i

hope you enjoyed i love plant shopping let me know what plants you have bought lately because i would
