We have a plant shop in the barbershop where I work. The owner is a wonderful human being. She will occasionally give me a plant in return for selling a few of her plants while she’s away. I don’t mind doing that for her. I love talking to customers about the plants that they buy. Today she gave me this adorable Arizona Rainbow Cactus. I absolutely love it!

Here’s a question for the Gregsters:
All of my plants are named after musicians, actors and fictional literary and film characters. Any suggestions for a name?

🤩 Beautiful! 🌵
There is a plant shop in San Francisco where I shop.... in a barbershop. She has great plants
Botanic Panic
Wow that’s a beautiful cactus! I’ve never seen one like that before. Totally looks like an Ashley O to me, if you’re a Black Mirror fan.
Sarlacc. Star Wars pit monster. Sorry. It’s all I can think of when I see 🤣it.
Izzy for Isreal Kamakawiwo 'ole the he sings a great version of Somewhere over the rainbow.😊🌈
Does look kind of si fi ish. Maybe Starlacc. Or for rainbow effect, Judy.
Wowee! That cactus is amazing! I can’t wait to see what you name her. Who was the character from Grease who accidentally dyed her hair pink?
@pippi That’s where it’s from, Botanic Panic!😁
@PoeticPukatea87 Frenchie!😁
@DanDeLión oh my goodness! That would be a perfect name for her.
@Jho I love Black Mirror! Great obscure reference too!👏🏾
I'll say howdy next time I'm there! 🤠
Please do! Just ask the owner of Botanic Panic to point out the plant obsessed barber and she’ll point me out.😅
@AliveGasteria71 I said Sarlacc too!
Prince! The purple made me think of him immediately! Or Hendrix if you already have a Prince.
Stevie nicks, truly an ethereal plant 😮‍💨🪴
Wow! It looks like it is knitted!
@DanDeLión Rainbow Brite!! I’m a child of the 80’s & 90’s 😅 Absolutely beautiful cactus 😱
@AC73LoveCats It does doesn’t it!
Such a cool stinkin Cactus! I’ve never seen before.

I’m getting Mad hatter vibes for sure 🙌🏻 maybe Prince? Purple was his thang.
@pippi I gotta get back down to SF, I need more stuff from the Lefty’s store 😅
@Bmd oh no, the Lefty's store at pier 39?? Are you left handed?
Bad news - it closed
Good news - Botanic Panic is open in @DanDeLión place!!!
You can get a poo, a doo and a plant 🪴 😃
@pippi WHAT?!?!?!?! IT CLOSED 😳🥲 I LOVED that store. I am left handed 👋 their items have saved me. So sad to hear that. I haven’t been in some time.

A lot has changed since I been it seems, even the cliff house closed 🥲 one of my favorites.

As long as the Sausalito bakery is still open 🙌🏻🙌🏻
@DanDeLión I gotta come check it out!
@Bmd what is this?
Looks like a photo shop lesson on how to insert leaves 🤓 🤣
How did you make this grow like this?
@Bmd You’re welcome in my chair anytime. Just make sure you check out Botanic Panic too! 👊🏾😉
@pippi haha she’s a CRAZY plant. That is a monstera adansonii! Also known as the Swiss cheese plant. Most monsteras are know as the Swiss cheese…. But this is the REAL Swiss cheese. There’s about 5 plants in the pot- but she was way less established when I got her. I trailed her vines up the moss pole and when she rooted through it…. She exploded. I love the way it looks, but I may separate them soon to get some bigger leaves.

The adansonii is my favorite plant!
@DanDeLión 🙌🏻🙌🏻 a haircut AND plants?!? That is a very dangerous combination. (I’m booking my flight)
@Bmd I'm gonna check out the bakery soon...there's one in Woodside that I like
🍥🥮🍪
@pippi Ooo your in some of my favorite territory :) The village bakery over there I LOVE, I believe it’s right off Whiskey Rd. I frequented all over SF areas, but definitely spent most of my time in Sausalito / marin county right over the GGB
@Bmd I love them too!! But mine looking like a whimp next to yours
@pippi we might have to make a trade 😅 because I want mine to start looking like yours haha
@pippi I would recommend getting a moss pole, like sphagnum moss. The coco coir pole doesn’t really hold moisture. So the plant can’t grow into it. You will get a even better looking plant if it grows through the moss:)
@Bmd off to get a moss pole
