Wishlist ❤️🌱

I was hoping to expand my plant wishlist and collection! I just need a few good suggestions. Any small or medium indoor plants are perfect, these should be visually appealing! For outdoor plants, any are fine, but I prefer medium or big, colorful or green. Not outdoor succulents, thanks. I’m so glad that I get to take everyone’s suggestions and add the to my wishlist! I like pictures. I have cold winters here in Wisconsin (this doesn’t have to affect your suggestion, anything is fine). Advice appreciated! I do not have a grow light, but it is not dark indoors. I’m looking for genuine suggestions that you have or would like to get. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH IN ADVANCE, I enjoy sharing my plant journey!
Florist Kalanchoes (indoor) have pretty flowers in my experience.
But I killed mine soooooo
*Shrug*
Also, how about trees and bushes? Like, fruit trees? So they also serve a purpose and look pretty at the same time.
I absolutely love trailing philodendrons. They don’t require a ton of light, and are forgiving and beautiful. My favorites are the heartleaf, the brasil, and the micans. No need for a grow light! For a higher light room or if you branched into grow lights, I love hoyas of all kinds.
A couple of my favorites philos
One of my favorites for inside are Aglaonema’s. There are so many variations and most are very colorful. Here are some of my collection.
For outdoors, I have a monstera, ferns, hanging spider plants and geraniums among other large succulents.
@Shells_Garden Wow, that 1st one with the pink!!
@maci.in.bloom thank you. I worked hard on that plant. It’s called a Khanza Pink Aglaonema. Its a rare one. I bought it as a 2 inch starter plant from Etsy last year.
Hoyas, snake plants and trailing philodendrons. Hoyas are super resilient. Snake plants because they don’t require much water and aren’t picky about tap water. Trailing philos because climbing 🧗 plants aren’t allowed in my house anymore! No pink 🫅 princeses, no monsteras 🚫. Trailing is okay, it doesn’t tear up the carpet or try to burrow into drywall! 🤣😑🤪
@MariansOasis Snake plants.. GREAT suggestion TYSM!
