Comment on AI is ruining houseplant communities online

My mom’s friend fell for one of those scams and paid something like $30 for some mystery seeds online because they were advertised on facebook as flowers shaped like cat faces. The website also claimed they were in the Bromeliad family, but the advertised flowers looked nothing like bromeliads. These scammers prey on people who take everything at face-value.

Wonder what those seeds the scammers are selling really are

I started them indoors out of caution. The seeds were pretty small. They sprouted and kinda looked like clovers, but I didn’t bother growing them further.
