This video is so informative and relaxing voice 💗 It’s April and my Christmas plant is blooming! received it on Christmas without flowers, and I was not sure if it going to bloom 🤩 loving the flowers and want to make sure I take good care of it. Thank you for this video!
Hi Marina, so glad you enjoyed the video! That's so interesting, my Christmas cactuses are also all blooming again 😍 a double whammy this year 😀 hope you get to enjoy their beautiful flowers for as long as possible 😊
Hi C K, depends on the insect but horticultural need oil or a mix of insecticidal soap or even a good bio kitchen liquid soap and water will deter most pests. You can even just spray some with a strong nozzle and they'll go flying, just need to make sure they're not also in the soil.
This plant has an intimidating name in my native language, we call it "the scorpion" because the leave segments look like a scorpion's stinger 😆 A bit unrelated but do you intend to continue releasing some gardening ASMR videos? Because I really love them 🖤
Ai ai I can see why its called the scorpion even though the leaves are actually very soft 🙂 🦂 about the asmr, you're not the first person to ask me that, what kind of asmr videos do you have in mind? Talking or just rubbing things? 😂😂
I have just received this plant as a gift, so this video is perfect! Although the soil of my plant started to develop a white cover and all the flowers dropped! Do you know what could have caused that?
Hi Eli, glad the video helped! The white cover is mould that happens alot on houseplants and it's normally not a problem, just scrap it away and you can spray the top of the soil with hydrogen peroxide 3% and water mix and that should kill any fungus. The flowers may have dropped if it wasn't watered properly, they can also get a shock when moved from one environment to another. I wouldn't worry about it though they should bloom next year 🌷
I use luke warm water to replicate their natural habitat. I actually normally water from above although some water from underneath and let the whole soil get moist, dry out and then repeat. Above has always worked for me. In winter water sparingly, particularly after flowering which is when they have a rest.
