How To Propagate Philodendron Melanochrysum, in this guide I will show you three different methods and their differences. This video should help you understand what needs to be done in order to propagate the Philodendron Melanochrysum. Even though its a "rare plant" the Philodendron Melanochrysum isnt much harder to propagate than many other Philodendrons.

I love propagating with perlite. I hardly ever have failure and when I do it's because it was too moist. You had too much water in your cup. You get better results if you use bottom heat and only a fraction of an inch of water. I mean like a teaspoon of water to a pint jar of perlite, just enough to settle the dust.

@TechplantChannel 3 года назад

i agree, it did leach up the side because it got kinda goopy so it looked like a lot more but i agree

@susanachan335 3 года назад

After you propagate with perlite, can you reuse the perlite or do you have to dump it afterwards?

@mentha_101 3 года назад

As long as the perlite hasn't grown algae or the plant wasn't diseased. You can also add it to the soil that you pot your plant up in. I usually do this.

@thewittyusername 3 года назад

I think it's pretty obvious at this point philodendrons prop better the closer the conditions are to their natural habitat since sphagnum moss always does so well second to soil. Now I'm curious how they would do being propped in orchid bark since it would be the best of both worlds and growing up tree bark is what they do in nature.

@TechplantChannel 3 года назад

i will do another experiment, once I stuffed them in a bin for high humidity the air roots really grew big and fluffy, if they had some moist bark to grab onto they would have been in heaven

Have you guys heard of a dwarf variety of Philodendron melanochrysum? I’m living in Japan and I keep finding products sold as “Small leaf Philodendron andreanum”.

Also I cannot find anything about small-leafed/dwarf variety in English and the pictures of the plants do look like Philodendron Micans...

@jamtea388 3 года назад

Good video. I like how you used the different kinds of medium. I've perlite effective but even with a home made humidity dome it's such a bother to make sure it says moist. I have ended up simply using soil, although that can be a bit messier when checking on roots. Any thoughts on why water propogation isn't as effective? were you using bottled or tap water? I avoid water propagation because my tap water has chloramine.

@TechplantChannel 3 года назад

i think just some of these slower harder to grow aroids dont like being in water since they grow up trees. Im not sure, ive just noticed some of the more "rare" plants of mine dont react to well very well

@thewittyusername 3 года назад

They're always going to thrive in situations that are closer to how they grow in nature(up mossy trees and rocks). Philodendrons don't normally grow in water so it's not surprising it's by far the worst method. It's only effective for people who lack patience and want to see the roots start for instant gratification at the expense of the overall health of the plant.

if the leaf doesnt want to get out, just put a bag or something like that on your plant :) NEVER help leaves to get out with your hand. been htere, tried that, get a heart attack every time i see someone on instagram to "help them". not just with their hands but with RAZORS.
