First plant convention of the year!

A tad small IMO in comparison to last year's one, but i still came home with some great stuff!

The first thing i bought is this cute little Spathiphyllum. Not your regular PL btw. This is Spathiphyllum ivanportillae, which is a relatively new species from Ecuador. It's small and uniquely black, i love it. I don't care if i paid $35 for a PL. It's a special PL.

The Spathiphyllum actually came with a stowaway vanilla orchid cutting. I've always wanted one but never wanted to pay for one [like what, ten bucks? Lol], so I'll gladly take it.

Next is this Anthurium. It's a hoffmannii x forgetii 'Variegated'. I know it says variegated. But as we can see, variegation doesn't always translate in genetics. Still really pretty and a good size too for $15.

Then this one is a personal guilty pleasure, but i still love it. The most expensive plant i've bought so far [$65], a Philodendron billietiae x mayoi! Gotta love the variegated hybrid philos, they're gorgeous 😍.

And finally i brought back two more hoyas! For only $10! A bella 'Luis Bois' [inner variegated too i think] and a lacunosa! The lacunosa currently has a bloom, but i can barely detect a scent, so we'll see. The longest vine on the lacunosa is almost a meter 😱.

Awesome find!
Nice finds, the buding flower on the first one look pretty nice,

I don't know much about these plants but they are nice
Love those hoyas, what a great haul.
The Lacunosa bloom is gorgeous, there's just something about hoyas β™₯️
My little Krohniana is about to bloom 😊
That philo is beautiful!
Beautiful new haul!!! πŸ™Œ
Oh, I love those Hoyas!
@Araceae Wow!! 🀩. I love anything portillae. The dark leaves are just gorgeous!
Wow @Araceae that peace lily is something else. I’ve never particularly had my head drawn towards them, but it absolutely is for this plant. AND a stowaway vanilla orchid?? Score!!

I will be watching with interest your variegated anthurium. I’m a bit picky about variegated anthuriums, and I suppose alocasias too. I guess it’s because I think it better be great for such large leaves πŸ˜… But I sure do love me some Forgetii!
@Araceae have you seen the anthurium β€˜dragon fire?’ Now thats what I’m talking about! 🀀
@HelpIwantmoreplants I would have paid that for the philodendron, lol. They are my favorites. I am sure I overpay for them quite often. The Billietiae x Mayoi is gorgeous, love mine. I can’t wait to go to a show in April. I am looking so forward to it. It’s my birthday present to me, lol,
@BonusTaraire85 ooh can i see yours? It's hard to find a photo of mature philo hybrids online, and the billie x mayoi [Billieyoi lol that's what i call them] are always overshadowed by the FB hybrids
@DreamMachine oh that’s awesome. I’ve never seen the dragon fire before. Thanks for sharing!
Wow lucky are you! These plants are so pretty. HAPPY GROWING to you!
