My Top 5 FASTEST Growing Houseplants 🌱 | Plants for Impatient People

Hi everyone!

I’m incredibly impatient, which means that a fast growing plant is likely my top criteria of my favorite plants. These are the top 5 plants in my collection that grow incredibly quickly -there’s practically always a new leaf unfurling for me to fawn over. Let me know what some of your quickest growing plants are!

Good to know..I agree my tradescantia green is a very fast grower and root in water really fast too

[BellaDiary]

Ahhhh I’ve just posted a video like this and I feel like taking it down! My plants aren’t thriving anywhere near as well as yours! Well done and thank you for such a fab informative video!! I loved it

Y'ALL my VSOH is such a slow grower. I had her in full sun, because that's where my nonvariegated hearts were thriving, and she didn't put out a single new heart in a MONTH. She finally started inching out when I put her in a more shaded spot.

My money tree grows so quickly as well. It puts out like at least two sets of leaves a week... but usually more than that.

New subscriber here and I love your plant collection. My variegated string of hearts isn't growing much at all. I'm not sure why just yet but it is not dying.

[AishiteruMirae]

In my collection, monstera adansonii and scindapsus pictus exotica & argyraeus are prolific growers! They keep giving me new leaves - precisely two leaves at a time for every branch. They are my pride & joy 😍

[Kikiforfree]

I’m super impatient too. I always tell people that if they want to grow things start with basil because it grows so quickly. It’s almost like a reward system.
I have my pepperomia o. cutting next to a donkey’s tail under a grow light in a south facing window (partially blocked by a tree). It is extremely happy. After a dormant period of 5ish months and poorly packaging it while moving, it is flourishing. I also propagated a single leaf, and it grew 4 separate nodes.
And thanks for the grow light rec! Best one I’ve used thus far

Golden Pothos for sure and so easy to propagate I have four pots my biggest is on a pole

[mari.toronto]

Your video is really informative!❤️ newly subbed!

[zenfulkatoria]

Lol my Tradescantia doesn’t trail either because of a grow light 💡 they are making u-turns 😂😂😂
I go around the room praising my fast growing plants and and give my slow growers the side eye “do you need anything Ms. Hoya ? More light less water more water? No ur good. Cool
Ms Hoya if ur good? why only two leaves stop slacking!!!

[kyrad]

Love the title "Plants for impatient people"! Aren't we all?

[addison]

i can attest that regular string of hearts are really fast growing, mine grows about 6 inches a month

[brittanywest]

Love this video idea!! I am the exact same way. I’m so impatient when it comes to waiting for them to grow. I’ve come to realize that my favorite plants are always the ones I get to watch grow the most. It makes you have a special bond with them LOL 😂 ❤️🌿

[SometimesLaix]

I have this love/hate relationship with one dracena that I've had for 3 years with absolutely no new grow at all! The leaves are slowly growing bigger but not a single baby one. Meanwhile she's getting taller and losing bottom leaves but she looks awfully weird.

I'm so jealous of your pepperomia!💚 It's beautiful!

[PrincessZeldaGirl]

Neat video. I didnt know some of these grew so fast.

I have a video request though, how about "plants il never put in leca". stuff like string of hearts obviously not id think, with what you said about its roots and how long and spindly it is. but are there other more surprising ones you personally wouldnt put into leca?

[anitatyvm]

I agree with Rhaphidophora tetrasperma, it spits out two new leaves every 10 days or so and it's just getting north facing light. My marble queen pothos is also a robust grower and my sanseveria laurentaii has so many small pups right now, i imagine they'll definitely be rootbounded come spring. Conversely, I'm a little worried about my raven zz, hes really taking his time 💤 great video, nothing is more rewarding than seeing new growth points unfurl into new leaves 😊

[lupevillela]

I’m new to the plant parenting business 😂 what are they sitting in?

[brodyadamsthatsme]

My peperomia hope of all plants is growing SO fast. Like I don’t know what to do with it. Same with my VSOH. It’s BOOMED since I moved.

[caitmax]

Thanks for this content! Where did you get the cache pot your variegated string of hearts is in?
