You have an extensive collection, sir. I love all the indoor color you have mixed in with the green foliage-only plants! What a beautiful sight to wake up to every day!! It's all colorful and lovely!❤️💙💛🧡💚
The colors on your plant shelf look so beautiful! Syngonium pink was my first houseplant a friend stopped by and gave me a $2 plant! Still have it from 20 years ago! Your lipstick flowers sre so pretty....and your hoya is so happy! Glad it flowered for you already....I have had hoya flower for me for the first time ever this year! Your channel is doing so well! Proud of you :)
Loved seeing your plant tour, great to see your amazing collection, some absolute stunners there! Hope you work out what is bothering your green orange, too much light could be it as mine is in a darker spot and seems very happy. I have killed my spider plant for sure now though! I overwatered it so it was going brown, then while I was checking it over my dog knocked the pot out my hands and it smashed on the floor and finished him off! Looking forward to watching your collection and channel grow!
Thank you glad you enjoyed it. Nightmare about your spider plant, that’s some way to finish it off. My green orange seems to maybe over it’s hissy fit 🤞
My Christmas cactus ( I know it is because of the leaf shape) blooms beautifully in mid-May. Figured out the seasonal darkness and then brighter light of my northern latitude home in Michigan causes this…..
I figured unless someone register their plant collection as business it's pure waste of money. I have a lot of plants and have no intention of buying more. I'd rather have few mature statement plants that are doing well at home than bunch of small ones. But it took me many years trying different plants. Here is few plants I am going to use as statement plants: Ficus Elastica, Monstera Peru, Monstera Deliciosa, Neon Pothos, Dracena Marginata, Opuntia Snow, Euphorbia Trigona, Opuntia Robusta, Tedy Bear Cactus, Angloanema Silver Queen, Tradescantia Zebrina, Money Tree... There is more but the mentioned above are the easiest to take care of. That's already a dozen. For everyone who just starts with plants this is good list to start with. All these plants are easy plants and that's good for someone who is still figuring out how to grow plants. I use a lot of bark in my planting mix. At least half of the mix is bark. Helps with avoiding root rot and it's cheap. Pine bark is cheap. Sometimes I use cedar bark but it's more expensive.
Such a beautiful collection you have! Do you have a video with your favorite plants? My absolut favorite is the hoya because of the smell of the flowers by night. I try to grow a bougainvillea in my apartment and with all efforts is growing weak. I love my orchids as well. Now after watching your videos I begin to understand my suculents. Many thanks for your help with exelent explanation on things! By the way, greetings from Bulgaria and my town Bojurishte- meaning Town of Peony!
I’m wondering if you’ve ever considered getting an African Violet? I inherited 4 from my elderly neighbor when she moved away, and at first I wasn’t crazy about them. But now I love em and they’re all very happy with me too! 😊
As a plant enthusiast myself, I’m confused as to why you suggest cutting back leggy or stringy growth on certain plants but not others. I like to explain it to my customers that pruning is a conversation with your plant. That the way to ask for new growth to create/maintain a bushy plant rather than a leggy, strung out plant is to prune or cut back. That you periodically hard prune to bring the splitting as low as it possible on a healthy plant and depending on the plant to get new growth from the soil. Get to the dang question Chris! Hahaha I can get talking for sure… Anyhow… transcathia! You mention several times that they can get faded and crispy and leggy, and don’t last too long. In my experience, they just need that consistent hard pruning periodically of the long leggy old growth right down close to the soil leaving just a small nub and will respond by pushing out vibrant new growth from the soil. This then creates 30:47 and maintains a bushy and vibrantly colorful plant. The plant no longer is spending and wasting energy trying to get nutrients all the way to through those old, tired long pieces and can put that energy to fresh new sprouts! Would you agree? And thanks for the great videos and sharing your wealth! Chris 🌱
I'm at the point with Trads now where I just leave them to do their thing. I don't bother stressing anymore 😂. Cutting back is great, I just don't always get round to it.
The Mandarin (green orange spider) plant likes lower light. Mine thrive under purple grow light for 7-8 hrs a day and nowhere near window. Finally got to where none or negligible browning to only old leaves.
Thank you so much for the wonderful tour of your beautiful plants ietting us know what you personally pick for your collection very nice I plan to watch this again when I can sit with a cup of coffee and no interruptions Thank you again
You have so many verities,I liked lipstick plant and all beautiful colour healthy plants,calathea,aglanomia and some more I love it your plants and videos 😍
I have a new red too! I love it! You may need to look at the roots of the philodendren...mine has never drooped before...so you may have root rot! Otherwise you sre going to love it!
@@SheffieldMadePlants It should be fine even if you have to re root....I have a dark lord that I just discovered has root rot and it had one baby areil root so I just stuck it in some new chunky potting mix I made and hoping it will re root that way.....not sure or I could put it in water....let me know or maybe you will be making a video about how you are taking care of yours!
What a nice, healthy collection you have. I too have a Philo Red(Blushing) is what the tag said when I bought it. Mine has never drooped before so, I would suggest checking the root system. I have mine in a well draining, chunky soil consisting of moisture control potting soil, bark and perlite. I am thinking of putting her on a moss pole soon to keep the large leaves(12 1/2in×7 1/2in)and grow them even bigger. Thanks for sharing your lovely collection, would like to see updates down the road. Be blessed!🙏
11:32 is a cellisia repens otherwise known as the vine of turtles. I struggled figuring out what that was as well as actually thought it was a pilea glauca for the longest time.
@@SheffieldMadePlants Yeah that’s due to water touching the leaves. Sometimes under watering causes that to happen as well. I had to learn that the hard way. This plant is a survivor because all I had left was a three leaf stem and I turned it into a full bushy plant. It also doesn’t like to be transitioned from one type of climate to another during winter time unless that climate is a better condition, because I received this as a gift during winter and that caused everything to melt away.
Nice plants! I need to see if you have a video on Anesthesia (I think that's how you spell it). I bought one with 3 leaves. They turned brown and now I only have one leaf. I also need to watch about your cinnamon and get some of those sticky things for knats. I've never had knats before. Thank you for your videos! I enjoy.
Loved your houseplant tour, many thanks for sharing! Your plants are all so lovely and I like how you have styled them. Love the lipstick plant especially! Very enjoyable video. 👌🪴🥰
I think that trailing one on your top shelf above the computer, next to the pothos is not a peperomia, but a tradescantia. I've got one exactly like it, and it was sold to me as a tradescantia, and it certainly behaves like one. I have propagated it several times. It grows really fast, and the propagation is very easy ...like a tradescantia. I keep it at the back of the room, on the fireplace manual, that receives strong morning sun.
The orange and green plant is a Mandarin orange spider plant. They don't like direct sun. That's why the leaves are turning black. Mine did that until I moved it further from my east facing window.
What a nice collection of house plants. They are all beautiful and well taken care of. I imagine it’s quite a lengthy task to water them , and keep them in their best condition. Thank you very much for showing off your plants .🙂👍
The one up top next to your pothos that you called a peperomia is a callisia repens I believe. Then on the shelf below that there is the plant that you talked about going limp and thirsty, it is a fittonia.
The orange and green plant you mentioned is a Spider Plant. I think it was called the Mandarin Spider plsnt, not too sure on the scientofic name though.
@@SheffieldMadePlants When you do let us know, I'd love to send you a cutting of my tradescantia green, it's been in my family for 4 generations of women, it was my great grandmother's and its the easiest plant you'll ever take care of and looks beautiful 🌿 🙂
Hello sir! You have a wonderful plant collection! I would go crazy if I had that many plants to care for. LOL! I notice that you have yellow stickers in some of your plants. Is that to catch fungus gnats? If so, have you ever tried to sprinkle “Ceylon Cinnamon” on top of the soil? Once I started sprinkling it on the top of my plants (several months ago), I have not had any fungus gnats. I especially do it for plants that I top water at times to prevent the gnats from coming to the soil. I am able to bottom water some of my plants, so that also helps to keep fungus gnats away. But you have so many plants so I guess it would take you forever to bottom water even half of your collection. I love your channel! And so glad I found it! Stay well!🪴
Thank you very much. Yep they’re for fungus gnats. I had a big problem last year but seem to have less of them now that I bottom water. Will definitely try the cinnamon thing. Might need a fair bit 🤔
@@SheffieldMadePlants Hi sir…At first I was using regular household cinnamon, but I saw no difference in the number of fungus gnats. Then I heard Amanda (on the Planterina Channel) mention Ceylon Cinnamon. I ordered it on Amazon the first time, but then I noticed that one of my local grocery stores stocks it so I buy it there now. I think they call it pure cinnamon. Also, it is edible, but it’s very strong and I do not like the taste of it so I will use it only on my plants! LOL!
