    My favorite thing about having a plant friend is that they can help me know why i suck ass at keeping things alive

    My favorite thing about having plant friends and being part of the planty community is just meeting new people who share my interests and getting to know them! Like you said, making friends as an adult is HARD and it really bummed me out for awhile. But thanks to instagram, I met so many people in my area who I never would’ve crossed passed with if it hadn’t been for this shared interest. I’ve met such a wide variety of people I wouldn’t normally gravitate to but I learned so much about so many different types of people (and everyone is so kind and generous!!!) It blows my mind how incredible this community it!

    You should do r/succshaming



  4. SherrittaS on December 9, 2021 at 3:20 pm

    I am new to the social media platform outside of YouTube and Facebook. It has been great sharing and learning from different plant enthusiasts. I especially love the mutual joy I share about plants with my plant community that my other friends cannot relate to. sherrittasemerzier@gmail.com



  5. Amanda Landaverde on December 9, 2021 at 3:22 pm

    hello plant friend! i hope i’m not too late to enter – i follow you on insta and raced here to catch up on your videos. plant content is always wonderful but especially now during this pandemic, so thank u for being here for us! i don’t have any plant friends irl (except for one who has a few but she isn’t as invested sadly) so youtube and reddit have become special havens of the internet for me ¨̮ i love seeing other people’s plants, learning more about how to care for my own, and just the overall positive and friendly energy of the community. also i hope you and your loved ones are doing well during this period. thanks! my email is amanda9077@gmail.com

  7. Jenna Penfound on December 9, 2021 at 3:27 pm

    The best thing about having plant friends is having people to talk to who understand my obsession and get excited by plants just as much as I do! jennaLpenfound@gmail.com



  8. Sarah RBNXP on December 9, 2021 at 3:29 pm

    My favorite thing about having plant friends is having people to share my plants with! I get so many new plants from cuttings or pups and its always fun to give away pieces of my favorite plants and gifts!

    I didn’t even know what Reddit really was until now. 🤣 I wonder if there is an anthurium section 😱 Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to check out ❤️✨ Also, please make a video of you reacting to that atrocities sub-reddit 🤣



  11. PlantyPlonts on December 9, 2021 at 3:31 pm

    Hi! Plant reddit is such a great place to learn, make new friends, and simply just creep on people’s beautiful plants! My favorite thing about plant friends is that they understand all the paranoia involving plants. They’re always willing to help, give advice or listen to you bitch about the plant that is now causing you to rip off your hair😂 . rebecatorresrodrig@yahoo.com

    Hey Becca, just wanted to start off by saying how much I love your channel! My favorite thing about plant friends is how supportive and nice they are! At the end of the day, no one quite understands our love of plants like a planty friend.

  19. Ruth Brackinreed on December 9, 2021 at 3:39 pm

    My favorite think about having plant friends is having people i can totally "nerd out" with! My non-plant friends get tired of hearing about all my plant babies sometimes haha.

  25. Lindsay Crute on December 9, 2021 at 3:44 pm

    I am new to the plant community so I don’t have many "plant friends", but my favorite part so far is finding out how many of my current friends are plant people! Email lindsaycrute@yahoo.com



  26. The Bad Minimalist on December 9, 2021 at 3:45 pm

    Plant abuse is simultaneously my favorite and least favorite subreddit.



  27. Debbie Kaye on December 9, 2021 at 3:46 pm

    Great.ideas for connecting with planty friends! Djones0906@msn.com



  28. R. N. on December 9, 2021 at 3:47 pm

    Many consider Hoya Kerrii a succulent…



  29. Joyful Plant Club on December 9, 2021 at 3:47 pm

    I think the best part about plant friends is being able to share a universal language with someone you’ve never even met before. As long as you both know plants, you easily become plant friends! 😊 Plus, being able to learn and grow from each other, since the plant world is so diverse, far from there being only one right or wrong way to do something. My email is Joyfulplantclub@gmail.com 😊



  30. Abby M on December 9, 2021 at 3:50 pm

    I think plant friends is great because it gets you connected with people you might not otherwise talk to! My newest plant friend is about 50 years older than I am!😄

  31. Petal on December 9, 2021 at 3:51 pm

    Thanks for the interesting video, I’ll have to check those out ❤🌱

    My favorite thing about having plant friends is having someone to share all the plant love with, like: Look at this new leaf that just unfurled! or My Thanksgiving cactus finally flowered! or Hey, I have way too many cuttings propagating, please take some! or I found a wishlist plant, look how beautiful she is! or Hey, have you seen this planty channel yet?! 😁

    Thank *you* for sharing the planty love.

    My email addy is plantypetal@ gmail.com 😊

  34. Heather Barrera on December 9, 2021 at 3:54 pm

    Entry: it’s nice to have some scenery while I’m doing homework and studying. College is really stressful and its great to wind down by watering or misting my plants after a long week. 😊



  35. Stridergirl101 on December 9, 2021 at 3:55 pm

    This video was so entertaining! More would be enjoyable for sure(:



  36. Holli Otis on December 9, 2021 at 3:58 pm

  37. Kristy D. on December 9, 2021 at 3:58 pm

    The best thing about having local plant friends is that when I go on vacation I know my plants will be cared for when I get back!!

  41. mongoosealamode on December 9, 2021 at 4:00 pm

    My favorite thing about having planty friends is having someone in your life that doesn’t think you are insane 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱



  42. s s on December 9, 2021 at 4:00 pm

    The trades on take a plant leave a plant are always really reliable and kind and generous. Most people get five stars because there isn’t much drama on the page. Even when I receive plants that are damaged, if the process and communication was good, I still give a five star review because plants sometimes really just get upset in shipping and it’s no ones fault. There’s rarely negativity and people are so welcoming to help you get started with trades. Highly reccomend !!!



  43. CelestialJada on December 9, 2021 at 4:01 pm

    We really need a root porn reaction video 🤣🤣🤣



  44. Stephanie Trevino on December 9, 2021 at 4:01 pm
