Where to apply for permit:

*Disclaimer - All views and opinions are my own. I made Aroid Asia aware of the pests and I included footage of cleaning the plants and was not instructed to do so. Aroid Asia did not inform me of the fee and only asked me to get an import permit and film an unboxing video in exchange for the free plants. When I asked about the fee they said I could get reimbursed but I have yet to as of posting this video. The discount code is not an affiliate commissioned code. Order plants at your own risk.

I no longer support Aroid Asia. A reel was posted on their instagram page without my permission (now deleted). I have no problem calling out companies that do this to me and take advantage of my content for advertising purposes. A unboxing video is all that they asked me to make in exchange for the plants. They never reimbursed the $25 fee that they said they would either. I just wanted to make you aware if you're considering importing from them 💚 I have the DM and emails as receipts 📄

The plants look stunning! The pest situation is very unfortunate, but like you said, at least they aren't planted in soil. Can't wait to see updates on these babies ❤

[_Pyro]

how exciting!! The pests would freak me out, you definitely handled that surprise better then I would’ve 😅 beautiful plants!

[katyperx]

FROM INSTA, AND BOOM! NEW VIDEO❤❤❤ SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS ONE!!!

[buckbeaksgarden]

The plants are in great shape! Yes, i too got anxiety whenever you touched your hair haha

[sylviagutierrez]

All so beautiful, the horas are huge and good roots👍
💚🌵🌱☘️💚

[carolstuff]

With the exception of the pests, this unboxing was good. Lovely big Hoyas; looking fwd to updates Melissa.

[Sattvika]

Waaaa so excited you got plant mail from where I came from!!! It flew so far away!

[nikkicanavan]

Hi Melissa! I have been binge watching your videos and I am "Obsessed" 🤣🤣Thank you for all you do, you are now my favorite Plant YouTuber, your collection is absolutely beautiful.💚💚

[Liliplantdiaries]

Omg!! So jealous all these plants are beautiful!! Especially the tortum 🥰🥹 I never open up any plant mail or bring any new plant into my room after at least two weeks of quarantine! Hopefully all your babies are fine!

[kyrad]

Tortum really surprised me. I was concerned it would have a hard time adjusting to my very low humidity environment. But it never did. It gets new leaves like crazy and took a repot without even a blip. It really is one of my favorites.

[thumpaharley]

Very nice! I like the way they packaged, no toilet paper on roots lol I just got a wishlist plant ~tortum from local nursery same size as yours for $32.00!I was so excited and is about to have a leaf unfurl, can not wait to see that! I just watched another plant tuber and her order had mealy bugs as well. I agree mealy bugs and scale are pretty easy to remove. Can’t wait to see updates :)

[ConnieP]

Well done you! You have a really nice bundle of aroids there Melissa and as usual we look forward to seeing updates. And thank you for your relaxed reaction to the pests....makes me more relaxed and confident when finding those pests on my plants (unless of course I find thrips! 😜) Enjoy nursing them to better health 👏🏼🥰

[davidreid]

Awesome plants for sure. The two red Hoya and the Tortum are spectacular in my humble opinion. I intend to do some research on the Tortum because I’m sensing an episode of my “I-wanna” syndrome rearing it’s ugly head. I like learning about new (for me) plants and this video was certainly an avenue for that. Merry Christmas to you too, Melissa. On a more serious note good luck with your new plants. Thanks for the video.

[AnaC]

So excited for your Tortum 😍 I love mine, even though I find it to be a bit of a slow grower compared to my other plants.
Not really into Hoyas but the ones you got are huuuge! How cool 🤩

[bunzie]

That hoya red!! WOAH!! So excited to watch these thrive with you <3

[ApatheticBlogger]

Super unpopular opinion but I find mealies kind of cute! Plus they're my favorite "pest" because they're so easy to treat. A little dish soap and they literally disintegrate 😂

[liteweightpup]

Wow, nice plants. So excited for you. Looking forward to see what you do with them next.

[cucumber_sooshi]

it's so amazing that, being in australia and so close to indonesia, i can't buy any of these plants (we have very strict biosecurity regulations) - but you can have them shipped all the way to you in georgia!

good luck with rehabbing your new plants! i'm looking forward to seeing how they go! ☺ (especially the tortum!)

💚

[amirul_afif]

Love some unboxing video 🎉. That macrophylla red looks stunning❤. Goodluck with the pest 😅
