Ever thought about making your videos a bit longer? I’m sure there’s enough you cut out to extend then 5-10 mins longer.. you’re enticing enough, you talk about a broad range of things, I certainly want to hear more about! I can’t be the only one!

The way you say Alocasia 😅😂 I’m so excited for 2024 plants!!

LOVE THIS! The amount of research you do leads to a fantastic end result. Thanks for sharing!

Staghorn ferns have a special place in my heart since that was the first plant I actively collected, many years ago. I hope those become more popular. I’d love to see unique specimens become affordable and available in the US. They are great for space saving, since they can be mounted and hung on the wall. It’s a unique plant that adds a little something different to a collection. I’ve also been loving unique, variegated, orchids. Also a plant that can be mounted and hung.

Ok soooo turns out I say ALOCASIA WEIRD! 😂

What a visually appealing video- you found some beautiful pictures to share. Thank you! Love that you promote others in this industry too.

What I find interesting is that in Asia they are obsessed with the dwarf and silvery white trichome covered platycerium varites but they seem to be way more suitable for the type on environment you'd get in most European or American homes. A lot of the serious collectors out there have to climate control rooms to get the more mild conditions these ferns prefer. I would love to see these crazy plants become more popular in the west.

Personally I'm still interested in seeing some new aroid genera and non aroids plants to become available .

Problem with Alocasia is they import terribly, which may keep the variegated price higher…I hear you on philodendrons but they are just so much easier to ship and import which makes it more accessible especially with the cool hybrids 😅

Great video once again! Dark Anthuriums and variegated Alocasia all the way 100% Personally I LOVE staghorns but I'd be shocked if our market moved in that direction.

I saw the Platycerium in videos of the plant show, it's nice to see something else than Aroids. I plan to add some Epiphytes to my collection, among which a Staghorn Fern

Even though monsteras have been dropping I think they are too popular and will always be hot in the market. Especially the newer variegation types

I've been noticing the Party Time Alternanthera being talked about a LOT, completely out of the blue, within the last month or so.. I never saw a single thing about them (I pay attention to pink plants, so I wouldn't have missed it) , until about a week after I bought one, in a large plant order with a bunch of other plants.. now they're everywhere 🤣 so idk if they're just getting more popular or what.. but I'd be interested to see stats on that 😂👌🏼

As an Asian, yeah, what Sean from Onlyplants said, Staghorn Ferns are coming in very very strong within Asian hobbyist, I think it started from last 1-2 years ago when a Platycerium won the award for most prized plant collection in hobby in Taiwan, since then Platycerium has made a slow climb to fame with many dedicated sellers and various degrees of Staghorn fern forms and sizes (some just the size of your palm at it’s max size) Perhaps due to Asian having a more limited and constrained spaces, vertical plants like Staghorn ferns will always has a place, and how so many Asian has grown them like an art display, framed, with a spotlight shining a light on it, it is a nice plant to have if you only one a few but display it nicely within your interior (Kawanrusa from aloneinoasis or Benjiplant did this) In fact, I’m actually kinda surprised the West didn’t catch on this trend at all 😅 But apart from that, I myself have decided to finally give Caudex plant a try after the price has slowly declined down and finally got myself a Phyllanthus mirabilis, (give me 2 more months and I’ll finally add more into my Platycerium collection, been eyeing a really narrow and long Platycerium willincki along with a many fingered one)

Literally my 2024 wish list. Anthuriums, variegated Alocasias, and more carnivorous plants. And a couple more Hoyas then I’ll be satisfied there. I guess I’m not alone in the first 2. I’m really not interested in cabinet growing though. All my Alocasias (and my one lone anthurium) are happy in room conditions.

That variegated money tree, can be imported from Taiwan for $8-20 each, even cheaper if purchased locally.

I haven't seen any trending plants I like. I'm over all of the hybrids and variegations. They make for cool instagram photos to look at though. No shade to people who love them. I would like to see more orginal plants trend again. Major appreciation to the turtle plant and how quickly it can take over the windowsills.

I can't wait for 2024 to see who was on point in the trends! 😊

This was a great idea for a video and you didn’t an excellent job! Thank you!

I'm surprised that terrarium-condition looking plants aren't on here. I feel like there are more and more very unique and exotic looking terrarium plants that are getting discovered and cultivated, and once people find a way to grow these plants in lower humidities then I think they're gonna get very popular

A Florida beauty without variegation is just called Phil. Florida.

As a die-hard philodendron freak, I really want to get more DARK leafed anthuriums like anthurium pap x-one

Keep up the good work 🎉

Never heard anyone say alocashia haha

I live in NZ variegated Alocasias and Anthurium are super popular atm also the mint and aurea monsteras and there's a loyal crew of Syngonium collectors myself included.

I love plants but I will never understand the people buying $1000+ plants with one or two leaves. One thing goes wrong and you’re out thousands of dollars. Kinda seems like a circle jerk lol

Oh, pink diamond for sure. I've already got my tc babe. 😂 Please make a video on variegated alocasia! I have so many and want to know more about them. What about our hoya friends? The challenge of getting them to grow, thrive and bloom is super gratifying. Anthurium are such butts. I'm really entering into a solid alocasia and hoya era. 😁

More TC pls.... Would safe more Forests...

Great video, loved ir, very excited about the new trends.

I'm proud to say I have Variegated Philodendron Darklord and Alocasia Macrorrhizos Plumbea Variegata!!! proudly Philippines

Homalomenas are so great. And really really great growers. I had one that turned into 6, and they've been very pest resistant for me too.

I think that you had a couple interesting perspectives in this video. Your own perspective about collectors wanting a challenge goes exactly opposite to mine though, I've killed enough plants as it is already, I'm pretty much done with Alocasia and Anthurium, I'll keep the ones that I really love in Pon but I've given up on these two genera almost completely. Now I just want some easy plants that will reward my efforts or plants that I can stick in a high-humidity terrarium and just forget about. I recently got back onto Instagram and almost all I see is Anthurium hybrids and variegated Alocasia... Can't say that I care about any of these trends. But I will not deny that this is what's mostly going on right now. I loved Sean's perspective too, I think he's mostly right but I don't think that the Platycerium will ever take off here where I live, it's not nearly hot or humid enough for these to grow, unfortunately. At the moment, my personal interest lies mostly in the different morphological varieties and different sports of Monstera deliciosa (now that I can afford them) but also in terrarium plants that nobody talks about. I'd love to make a bioactive poison dart frog setup but I want it to look natural so unicorn plants are out of the question while small-leaf plants, ferns, mosses, shinglers and climbers are all welcome. I might be dipping my toes into begonias as well, some of them are real show-stoppers and they're not expensive, which is nice!

i completely agree with philodendron hybrids being the next big thing and same for monstera species variants. i do see more anthuriums as well but theyre still really not super popular with my plant friends, dont get me wrong they like the anthuriums, i got a few myself but eh, i see them still being a little more niche consumers than persay the philos, monstera, epipremnums.i think this is the year of the variegated/hybrid philo/monstera

Just keep what you like and enjoy 😊

My immediate thought was staghorn ferns as well. I think we are on the cusp of their popularity exploding

My alocasias flower at least once per year. I didn’t realize it was difficult 😅

Love the video; thanks for sharing!

My real ick is how he says alo-KASHYA. Love the series though ;D

I’m wondering how this is going to go for these Legacy growers and nurseries. The last year and a half has shown the masses that anything that costs “thousands” now will likely be in TC and in Home Depot or Walmart within 6-12 months. The variegated Alocasia will crash quickly as well, because they DO make corms readily. Thai Cons have gone from “Unicorn” to “can’t sell for more than $40” in less than 6 months. Personally, I think I’m done buying for a while. I have my collection, and at this point I’m back to collecting just for my aesthetic. I’m selling off a sizable chunk of my collection to move deeper into velvet anthurium, and anything else I keep is simply because I like them. 🤷‍♀️ (I did just get a Homalomena ‘Pink Diamond’ and don’t regret what I paid)

It's gonna be the 20 Dollar Thai Constellations.

My Anthuriums eventually turn brown. I have had no success with Alocasias but wonder if they just die down & then grow back, like perennials outdoors here in Wisconsin. I twice had Homalomenas with dark green, heart-shaped leaves, but they fail, growing smaller, not bigger, after a few years.

What is beautiful will prosper. I’m really into billietiae right now, I think it’s got promise

Great video P in G!

Think I'm a little ahead of the curve on stag horns. Got pretty much each type offered on fern factory, the starter plugs on etsy are hit or miss with most being sporlings that take forever. Not willing to risk the money for imports.

I’ve never heard it said like the Kashi cereal before

ive been wanting a variegated money tree for atleast 2 years now 😵‍💫 i hope the price doesnt rise

Pink variegations the way to go.

You forgot to ask Techplant.

I bought a small variegated money tree from a private seller for 50€. I have never seen another variegated one available.

Black delta force. Write that down.

I like how the variegated alocasia are getting. I prize jewel alocasia mainly for their leaf shape and textures, and bar the Frydek, disliked the variegation cause it looked more like bird poop than attractive. 😂 You introduced me to that stunning V. Jacklyn, and I think I’d love to see jewels like A scalprum or A platinum with crisp variegation on them. Or an A mellow leaf texture with A azlani colors. 🤯 Thanks and keep up the great content!

I’m gonna start doing my own tissue culture like “plants in jars”. I can make some money off these plants

The Variegated Alocasia is already very popular in Europe.

My alocasia bloomed. It was uneventful 😂. I’ve never heard alocasia pronounced the way you do. I say Al -oh-cay-shuh. Anyone else?

Meanwhile I started with alocasia as a indoor plants

I can sense that the variegated anthuriums will be the upcoming trend for next year. Lots of hybrids and color spectrum. Well, at least the trend here in Indonesia 😊 Nice vid tho 👍🙏

Aroid plants have been my favorite since i started my plant collection. Me personally i have about 100 plants and i tend to buy them based on how they look. the genus to me doesnt matter. That being said, the anthuriums and alocasias are probably my least favorite types of plants, they dont like me :( honestly im hoping to see a spike in the the variegated philodendrons like the orange princess and spirit sancti. hoping to also add a variegated florida beauth and a florida ghost as well. its honestly crazy to me how having 100 plants my list is still long and it doesnt seem like i actually have that many. hoping to maybe see a larger selection of the monstera mint and aurea as well!

I think anthurium hybrids will remain very popular until the market gets oversaturated by all of the variants. It is already very confusing to customers. Just watch any ecuagenera live sale. I think this will reach a tipping point until that market crashes. As for variegation, it has become so widespread that people can be picky in their choices. We'll probably see a move towards stable variegation.

Homalomena tricolor, I'll have that plant if it takes me a lifetime 😂

oh Man! I have been say "Alocasia" all these time!

Bummer, alocasia is not my favorite, beautiful but just not my cup of tea. Loved the video❤

Strappy anthium please

Alokosha

It's AL-OH-CAY-SHUH

Ridiculous these prizes, Gonna propagate them and give them away if they also give at least 2 propagations away!

LOL plant trends

AL-oh-case-ee-uh

Evening. How is your horse 🐴 doing? I haven't seen your videos lately. But I am curious. Have a good day

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏼

I guess it’s because I’m just getting into the hobby but most of these plants are just not visually appealing , for me at least . I’m still stuck on the alocasias and monstera d. type of plants or anything that looks remotely exotic . Most of the heart shaped leaves just look so darn ugly to me 😂 I don’t get the hype yet

Personally, I have zero intrest in anything that is variegated.

lol the way you say alocasia.. 🤡

Dang it- I can already tell I’m about to break the “no spider mite magnets in the plant room” rule for more pink varigation 🫣😂😍
