I posted the other day about my marble queen pothos I was trying to get thriving. I moved her to a sunnier spot and she was perking up a bit on my patio. THEN a massive storm hit last night at 4am and knocked the pot over and my marble queen went flying off the balcony. I’m going to dig around to try to find her but I’m on the third floor so not hopeful. (I’m very sad and I don’t know why lol)
I’m in the hunt to expand my collection so if anyone has a recommendations for reputable sites to order from please let me know!

That’s so unfortunate
I just bought a marble queen from a local plant nursery. It was an enjoyable experience rather than ordering online as you get to see what you’re buying up close
Oh, I’m so sorry for your Marble Queen. Still hopeful you can find her somewhere on the ground.
Marbles are quite abundant these days. I’d visit your local nursery and pick out a new plant baby in person. 🪴
Best luck with your next plant!
UPDATE: I FOUND HER! I had checked twice with no luck but the third time was the charm. She’s a little beat up but was laying in rain water so I’m sure her little trip wasn’t too bad
Plant swaps are your friend
For common plants like pothos, find a local plant group on Facebook and ask for cuttings. I have gotten about half of my entire collection for free, from cuttings I got to propagate myself which is very satisfying!
It’ll survive! They are tough plants. Glad you found it!
The app Palmstreet has a bunch of cool sellers on there. I just got a pretty big variegated epipremnum amplissimum for cheap on one of the live auctions.
