I spent £15 on a houseplant rescue box, let's see what I got these houseplants would usually be thrown away because they're not perfect but I'm here to rescue them! first up we've got... an unexpectedly stunning orchid! it looks beautiful bar a few damaged roots I need to research how to look after orchids asap I'm not great with them, but time to learn! ok, what's next? ahh, so cute! I think it's an oxalis spiralis but let me know if it's something else this isn't in as good condition but should be an easy fix ok, last one oh wow, it's beautiful! it's a rhaphidophora tetrasperma or mini monstera, I think anyway! it's so cute and doesn't look too damaged let's see if I can get them thriving

I spent £15 on a houseplant rescue box, let’s see what I got These houseplants would usually be thrown away because they’re not perfect, but I love a houseplant and a challenge so let’s rescue some plants! In this box I got… A gorgeous orchid! I do not have much experience with orchids so I need to do some research asap, any tips are very welcome A oxalis spiralus, this is very cute! It’s in worse condition than the orchid but nothing that can’t be fixed A rhapidophora tetrasperma aka mini monstera, it’s so cute and full! It doesn’t seem in bad condition at all but I need to inspect it more closely I think this is works out at about £50 worth of plants for £15, not too shabby. Let’s see if I can bring them back to life! This box is from @GrowTropicals and I think they still have them in stock 🌱 #houseplant #houseplants #PlantTok #houseplantlover #plantparent
