What is the most you are willing to pay for a plant? I mostly have been gifted most of my plants but would like to start buying some but feel a little guilty spending more than 50 bucks lol

Typically no more than $50, but I've been known to splurge a little!

What's a little lol

Well, if an expensive house plant, or two , or three, or four or even more brings you joy and you can technically afford it, I say go for it. I spent $150 on a plant last year but I will often spend $50 or more on plants, they help make me feel good.

Haha I keep most of my plants alive but at $150 I would doubt myself

I’d go to $150, but I have to feel confident I can keep it alive

Understandable

My thing is that I like to grow from seed, so spending 50 bucks on a plant for me is pretty much unthinkable. I've been tempted to order some dahlia bulbs that are like 15 bucks, and just have never convinced myself to do it. If I had the space I'd love to have fruit trees, and ordering some good bare root whips can get into the $50 range, so that I could maybe justify.

I feel the same way most of my plants I grew from seed or free cuttings.

Pune Seems better in terms of food and money. Should I come to Bangalore or not that's the point.
