They've gotten popular enough for the like huge plant shop chain in Norway to have them and that's in 13? cm containers so that's nice. Never seen them in anything smaller or bigger actually. 

What baffles me the most with the peperomioides is how thick the leaves are, it completely caught me off-guard lmaooo. 

Everything with a solid stem is a tree in my definition lmaooo, it looks more like a tree than my other plants so then it's my tree hahahaha. I wish I got into the avocado thing but I think they taste very.. weird so it's not for me, but I enjoy seeing how it is a way for people to start liking plants and getting more because they manage to grow things and get excited over the entire thing. 

Lol yeah sometimes my brain does that kind of thing, evidence you edge towards native-like skills in a language: fucking up homophonous words such as mail and male, and obviously vine and vein .. they aren't even that close but my brain just go like ah yes despite knowing it's wrong and I didn't check oof but yeah. 
I just hope the exotica will start like truly hanging, the same goes for the neon pothos because I really like trailing plants like that. The exotica is currently a bit too short for me to put it at the top of my bookshelf, but it'll get there I hope. 
My argyraeus is honestly .. growing like hell it's SICK, I don't understand but I do enjoy that it appears to be thriving. 

I'm not sure honestly, it looks very surreal with rather small leaves with fenestrations but I'm not complaining. I think it's because of the recovery thing or maybe it might be because of where the leaves grew? I don't know, but at least it isn't dying so I don't need to understand it, just accept it hahaa. 

Nice to know that you are okay with it, I'll keep doing it so you see that I have replied! 
 
Yeah, they're almost like succulents, very cool. Also them being little pancakes at the end of a long stem really gives it that alien touch.

This reminds me of this not-a-tree we had at my old house, it's this tropical tree with white flowers that smell real nice, very common, I forgot its name, anyway it was pretty much a tree, I would climb it and shit but my mum was always like "it's a bush" so I have no idea what the definition of tree or bush is. Your definition sure makes sense though, especially to a simpleton like myself. 
I get that, avocados definitely have a.. Special flavour, not to mention the texture, i see why some people don't like them. I don't expect my future tree to ever bear any avocados but I just like the idea of having a fucking tree in my room. How 'I don't give a fuck' is having a tree in ones room? Like, this shit grows outside but nature is my bitch so Imma just make it work inside.
That's actually adorable, I love that too. Seeing people excited over things they love gives the most lovely feeling of pure humanity, it's great.

It's cool, I just found it kind of funny since plants have veins so I was like, is this a process I don't know of? Veining? My English kryptonite is probably possessive vs plural s, I don't know why but I have to google it every time.

I get that, my string of hearts grows like a motherfucker, it's crazy, though lately its stems ends have been getting all wrinkled and its bottom leaves have been smaller, I'm thinking it might be getting too much sun but I don't know, maybe you know something?

I'm picturing a bigger rhaphidophora tetrasperma and I love those so the idea of a slightly larger one is really cool to me. I hope it keeps growing for you~

I like that you said that the one time you didn't tag me lmao
Honestly this conversation is the highlight of my day, I was meant to go protest Bibi and his gaggle of morons but I got a minor panic attack about school so at least I'm doing something interesting now. Still wish I could've gone out and practiced my free speach or whatever, I might go next week though so it's fine.
 
Yeah I think they're called elefantøre in Norwegian (elephant ear) lmaao 

I don't really think there is any solid definition of tree, I just.. I consider my schefflera to be a tree. I guess my dieffenbachias.. might be trees.. not now but soon lmaooooooo 
Yess 

Oh I think the possessive vs plural is very easy because Norwegian has possessive s as well so .. idk how that would help me but it does so it's ok lol. I struggle more with the 3sg -s of English it makes literally no sense to me and it fucks up everything. I'm just coming to terms with not having to be native-like in English because I am not native in the language and I don't think there are any English natives on this website who could write like I do in English, in Norwegian. 

Hmm guess vp didn't cooperate as I did tag but maybe it removed it as it entered the departing quote thing lol. :/  
Good luck, I hope things turn out for the better in the region. I know there are some hostility between us when the topic is up but I want to stress that I have issues with the current and former Israeli governments, not the notion of Israel nor the population of Israel.

Hmm, I sadly don't know anything about those plants and I don't really understand how people want plants that drop their flowers and look dead until it suddenly decide to bloom again 
Same, plus their foliage is very boring to me and they don't constantly bloom so most of the time it's just a few sad looking leaves. I can see where people enjoy it, the whole taking constant care of it and the anticipation for it to bloom but I couldn't be arsed.
Yes, basically

Interesting, in English they refer to colocasias as elephant ear plants, I don't see the pileas resemblance to elephant ears if I'm being honest.

Oh right, they sometimes grow trunks! They're cool plants, I like them. That's fair, I said it before and I'll say it again, native English speakers are the most entitled speakers, they often expect people to speak perfect English while not speaking a second language, it really bothers me.

It's okay, I saw it anyway, obviously. Thanks for tagging me this time. Do you want me to tag you as well?

Thank you, I hope so too but I'm not too hopeful, it's been pretty shit since Rabin, and I wasn't even born then. I mean, every prime minister after him has been corrupt so that's pretty fucking shit. I know, you make that very clear and I appreciate that,  lot of people aren't as careful or don't word themselves quite as well as you do during arguments, myself included and I really admire that about you. I mean, I try my best but ehh... I also appreciate the fact that you don't have an issue with the notion of Israel, a lot of people don't understand the Jewish people's need for a homeland and our connection to the region, I mean, Judea and specifically Jerusalem are pretty much the only tangible thing that's holy to religious Jews and non religious Jews like myself have a very strong cultural connection to the region. Not to negate the Palestinians connection to the land, of course, two peoples can have a connection to the same thing, hence the old testament. Honestly the fact that I have to stress that is bothersome but this is the world we live in.

Hmmm 

My tropic snow never fails to amaze me, it keeps getting a ridiculous amount of new leaves and I don't even understand. I decided to hold back on the water as I watered it quite heavily before I left and I see no sign in it being thirsty yet either. 

Yeah.. And non-native speakers need to become less aware of not sounding native because we aren't and shouldn't be ashamed because if anything it's very impressive to be able to communicate in something other than your mother tongue. 

I think the core of the issue in the region is just like.. I cannot foresee a future with no international issues in the region. It all dates so far back it has borderline became what the region is, which is sad as it is probably a beautiful place (it should be at least strategically worth all the battles through history anyway). The entire Mediterranean area is quite problematic when you look at the history, with pretty much constant conflict, either international or within a nation. The issue in the region is also very complex, which people tend to ignore. It is often like that, a lot of people overlook WWI when talking about WWII which I honestly don't think is possible. Conflict is always difficult to deal with and the issue is never black and white. 
My biggest issue with how it is from the Israeli side is how it seems like Palestinian land is slowly but steadily occupied forcing a lot of people from their homes and observing that from the outside is just horrible. I have to add that I can never accept Jerusalem as a capital city because of the cultural and political role of the city, ideally it should have a similar role as Vatican City.. although it would be problematic as well. There is no easy fix, it might not even be a fix to the problem.

I dont have them green fingers/thumbs. My mother on the other hand, her house is filled to the brink with plants. 

I do want to get myself an indoor citrus tree but I'm too scared, idk if I'll be able to keep it "alive". They do require some care: I suck at takin care of plants and almost never have time
I don't have a green thumb either but there haven't been that many plants who have died on me (yet) 
"yet"...

I don't really think there is any solid definition of tree, I just.. I consider my schefflera to be a tree. I guess my dieffenbachias.. might be trees.. not now but soon lmaooooooo 
Yess 

Oh I think the possessive vs plural is very easy because Norwegian has possessive s as well so .. idk how that would help me but it does so it's ok lol. I struggle more with the 3sg -s of English it makes literally no sense to me and it fucks up everything. I'm just coming to terms with not having to be native-like in English because I am not native in the language and I don't think there are any English natives on this website who could write like I do in English, in Norwegian. 

Hmm guess vp didn't cooperate as I did tag but maybe it removed it as it entered the departing quote thing lol. :/  
Good luck, I hope things turn out for the better in the region. I know there are some hostility between us when the topic is up but I want to stress that I have issues with the current and former Israeli governments, not the notion of Israel nor the population of Israel. 
Interesting, in English they refer to colocasias as elephant ear plants, I don't see the pileas resemblance to elephant ears if I'm being honest.

Oh right, they sometimes grow trunks! They're cool plants, I like them. That's fair, I said it before and I'll say it again, native English speakers are the most entitled speakers, they often expect people to speak perfect English while not speaking a second language, it really bothers me.

It's okay, I saw it anyway, obviously. Thanks for tagging me this time. Do you want me to tag you as well?

Thank you, I hope so too but I'm not too hopeful, it's been pretty shit since Rabin, and I wasn't even born then. I mean, every prime minister after him has been corrupt so that's pretty fucking shit. I know, you make that very clear and I appreciate that,  lot of people aren't as careful or don't word themselves quite as well as you do during arguments, myself included and I really admire that about you. I mean, I try my best but ehh... I also appreciate the fact that you don't have an issue with the notion of Israel, a lot of people don't understand the Jewish people's need for a homeland and our connection to the region, I mean, Judea and specifically Jerusalem are pretty much the only tangible thing that's holy to religious Jews and non religious Jews like myself have a very strong cultural connection to the region. Not to negate the Palestinians connection to the land, of course, two peoples can have a connection to the same thing, hence the old testament. Honestly the fact that I have to stress that is bothersome but this is the world we live in.
Hmmm 

My tropic snow never fails to amaze me, it keeps getting a ridiculous amount of new leaves and I don't even understand. I decided to hold back on the water as I watered it quite heavily before I left and I see no sign in it being thirsty yet either. 

Yeah.. And non-native speakers need to become less aware of not sounding native because we aren't and shouldn't be ashamed because if anything it's very impressive to be able to communicate in something other than your mother tongue. 

I think the core of the issue in the region is just like.. I cannot foresee a future with no international issues in the region. It all dates so far back it has borderline became what the region is, which is sad as it is probably a beautiful place (it should be at least strategically worth all the battles through history anyway). The entire Mediterranean area is quite problematic when you look at the history, with pretty much constant conflict, either international or within a nation. The issue in the region is also very complex, which people tend to ignore. It is often like that, a lot of people overlook WWI when talking about WWII which I honestly don't think is possible. Conflict is always difficult to deal with and the issue is never black and white. 
My biggest issue with how it is from the Israeli side is how it seems like Palestinian land is slowly but steadily occupied forcing a lot of people from their homes and observing that from the outside is just horrible. I have to add that I can never accept Jerusalem as a capital city because of the cultural and political role of the city, ideally it should have a similar role as Vatican City.. although it would be problematic as well. There is no easy fix, it might not even be a fix to the problem.

I guess they might store water in their thick ass not a trunk thingamabob.

 Hundo p, I work hard to learn languages that aren't my native languages (those being Hebrew and English, sort of, as I spent three years in Canada from age 3 which is why I speak English) but It's really hard so I'm always instantly smitten (or more accurately, a jealous little fuck) whenever I meet somebody that speaks languages that aren't their mother tongue.

That's true, it's because it's always been a very important import and transport hub (hope you appreciate alliteration).
The whole occupation thing is very complicated though, and I don't really want to get into it both because I disagree with Israelis choosing to live there (I don't think those that already do should or could be forced out, at least not in areas c) and because this isn't the time nor the place, I mean, this is a plant thread for goodness sake, but I will say that I find the whole ordeal very confusing, what is considered okay to keep in a war and what is it? Why, regardless of treatment, was it okay for the west bank to have been occupied by Jorden but not by Israel? How is it different to the golan heights or Sinai? Is the Jewish connection to the land not important in this equation? Is the Palestinian connection to the land not important in this equation? I don't fucking know, I'm a dumbass!
This is where we disagree, I think Jerusalem was conquered fair and square in battle (with Jordan, mind you)(I don't know if you can say that about anything when it comes to war, but if you can, you can say it about Jerusalem) and has been developed and brought to where it's at by Israelis. I think you'll find a majority of Arabs in Jerusalem prefer to be in Israel than Palestine, as has been exemplified by their reaction to Trump's stupid peace deal. That being said, I don't speak for them so I don't know. I also think it would never work as a city like the Vatican which is why it is best for it to be under Israeli control, as I doubt it would ever be accessible to Jews (not Israelis, Jews) if it were under Palestinian sovereignty. That being said, I wish it were more accessible to Palestinians, but sadly it has proven to be a security risk, to put it lightly.
