The retail landscape is shifting, and the "folding table" at the local market has been replaced by a high-tech, real-time global stage. We’re thrilled to see Palmstreet seller Eric Ruyak featured in VoyageLA, detailing how Hespera Jewelry Company leveraged live-stream commerce to scale from a local LA favorite to a global powerhouse. In the feature, Eric discusses the strategic pivot to live selling and why Palmstreet is the ultimate platform for this evolution: Community-First Commerce: Building deep trust with collectors through transparent, high-definition live interaction. Scalability: How live-streaming dismantled traditional retail barriers, making Hespera the largest live-stream turquoise company in the space. We are excited about the community we’re building through live-stream shopping.

Thank you, R. Daniel Foster, for featuring our sellers Bill Da Bui of Beach City Botanicals and Jocelyn Ho of Rare Plant Fairy in Forbes! Bill just broke the Palmstreet record with his sale of a $10,000 pink-variegated, Alocasia infernalis. Previously, the sale record was held by Jocelyn with an $8,500 rare plant. Bill is predicting that the Alocasia infernalis, known for its glossy, nearly black leaves, will be the hot plant for 2026: “There are a lot of Alocasia infernalis being sold out there, but a limited number are variegated, so it carries a heftier price tag.” 🔥 The rare plant market continues to surprise us with its scale and sophistication.

We just hit a new record! Our seller Bill from BeachCityBotanicals just sold the most expensive plant EVER on Palmstreet - a $10,000 Infernalis Black Pink Alocasia, possibly the first to be sold in the US. 🌿 But this isn’t just about one extraordinary plant. It’s a testament to the power of live shopping to hyper-connect expert sellers and sophisticated buyers in specialized markets where passion meets premium value. We are obsessed with building this community and are so excited for Bill! 🎉
