MY VELVET PHILODENDRON COLLECTION - the furry family - species and hybrids! 

Speaking of "magnificent veining"...your arms are a national treasure.

“Little fairy animals... but in plant form” ...love it! 🌿🌱🙌

Blowing the dust off your Gloriosum 😆😁 Sorry you snapped the new growth... bet everyone cringed at that lol. Stunning collection!!! 💚🌿🌱🌴

SAME! “I’ll never get that. Not interested. No.” *6 months later* “Yeah I have 6 of them. SO WHAT?!?!”

I'm so glad (but not 😂) that I'm not the only person who has thought the crispy cataphyll was dead and snapped it off only to realise I'd just snapped off a happy little growth point! But you're right, they will grow back lol.

I’m so happy to finally see a video focused on velvet philos! Thanks for making one - on the lookout for a majestic, the mature form is SO BEAUTIFUL. Also, micans are awesome and super fast grower for me, hope you get them soon!

Love how chilled you always come across and then the switch when you snapped the catyphyll 🤣 sure know your pain

My heart and jaw literally dropped when I heard the snap! I was like, "nooooooooo.. okay, breath, we will be fine!" Haha Great video as always 💚 Now I really do need a Gigas and Choco.

The snap of doom! 😭 Beautiful collection!

Was anyone else panicking at him pawing that last El Choco cataphyll a mere 60 seconds after accidentally breaking off the previous one?

You have really high quality content :D Your plants are beautiful and one can feel that you really care for them a lot. You also seem to know a lot about every plant. I bet you will soon gain more subscirbers :D God speed!

Yay!!! New favorite plant RU-vidr!

This entire video is my inner monologue when looking at my velvet plants...and also accidentally snapping new growth off.

Ohhh. That happened to an unfurling gloriosum leaf of mine last week 😫 silly me was putting water in the humidifier and knocked my precious new growth off 😭 Awesome velvet collection! ❤🌿

OH NOOOO!!! That growth point! Really helpful with the differences!

My favorite plants rite now , Gloriousum being number one , trying to propagate now . Exciting tfs 🌱✌️😇 You have some beauties, love the Glorious!

Love now the glorious leaves are growing 😍

Beautiful!

I too love philodendron leaves..its so refreshing....i appreciated your collection ..👌👌

OMG that breaking of the new growth has happened to me a few times, and it always breaks my heart and seeing you do it reminded me of the horrible feeling, I mean you know it will be fine but doing it's painful, haha thanks for sharing, regards from Edinburgh.

Omg I just bought all of my wishlist philos and then I saw that gigas 😭😍

Omggg I literally pulled off one of my Gloriosum's new leafs a little while ago too 🤣😥 Loved all the plants! 💚

yay!! stay healthy for us!! thank you for the content :)

Beautifull collection 💚💚💚🤗

Love all the Velvets 😍

Your philodendron melanochrysum x verrucosum is quite splendid! (its AKA as philodendron splendid😁)

Is this Glorious the huuuuge one you have currently?? I’m amazed!

The melanochrysum is so cute!

Velvety plants are my favourite 💚

New fan here from The Philippines!

We have all done it, thinking its a dried up bit, breaking it and discovering its new growth. 😂 both painful and funny to watch 🤦🏻‍♀️

I did the same to my gloriosum. It had two growth points and one started shrivelling after a while and I made the same mistake and pulled off new growth under the dried up cataphyl. :'(

I want to correct what you said about chopping plants. You actually will get bigger leaves OR more leaves if you cut your plants. Especially with Philodendron the fastest way to get big leaves is to chop the top leaves and propagate them.

Great video as usual, I love your plants! I wish you the best, gym industry must be really tough at the moment... Stay safe.

Hey James, great update & distraction! Love your velvety leaf philos! Gigas is so majestic , love it! By the way have you received your purchase from Equajenera yet?

I have just stumbled in the world of aroids and I am sooo tempted by many of them will this start to be a new addiction to me? Maybe onece I will be able to live in my own place yes 😁hopefully soon. O boy that velvet on these leaves there is something that alluring like a velvety leaf!? I am sure the big one you have broken the tip by mistake will recover soon plus you know that plants get better roots if you prune them? So nothing has come to hurt the plant will grow stronger. Thanks for taking about your job. I appreciate it. I thought you may be a professional dancer. ❤️

Hi, how do you propagate your verrucosum? I’ve just got a cutting and wondering if water or moss is better in your experience? Thanks x

how do you manage having plants in the cute little glass containers? Im too scared to repot my plants into anything without a drainage hole haha

When you pot the glorious, do you leave the node over the soil like gloriosum or under like melanochrysum? Please help.

🤩🤩🤩

Did you figure out that "beautiful substrate" mix?

OMG. breaking the growth point - both laughed and shocked

how old is your el choco red? how big was it when you purchased it? and how long did it take to reach that magnificent size?

Just a quick question re: propagation in sphagnum moss. How moist do you keep the moss? Do you just mist it daily so that it doesn't dry out? Also, do you fertilize or add any plant food in order to give the plant nutrients? If you could provide the steps/basics of what you do I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much. I enjoy your videos and really appreciate your content. Take care and stay healthy. (Oh ... so sorry about the broken growth point!)

My pseudo verrucosum is lime green. Looks like crushed Velvet. Great video

In what conditions do you keep your melanochrysum? Mine is such a slow grower, don't know if I should change it up :)

I literally snap new Growth all the time 😂 I try not to touch plants that much any more haha

14:54 LOLOLOL🤣🤣🤣

Please please tell me where you got that el choco red from I love it

Are gloriousum leggy when they’re far from a light source or are they naturally leggy

Im so jealous, I am desperately looking for gloriosums where I live and they are so rare and so expensive, you have a whole collection.

So buetiful

Dem veins tho!

If you broke growth point, would it grow back again?

It always makes me nervous to watch anyone play around with leaves or young growth.

Very interesting! And I subscribe you now ;)

My heart broke for you when I heard the snap. 😞

Prends soin de toi James !

Which ones do you grow in your tent? :O

first like :v now silence, I am watchin

where can I find your ebay?

He always does 50 pushups before filming… hahaha!

Io amo tutte le varieta' di philodendrum.☺

Ur handling it too well with that cute grow point.. 🤣. PS personally i would prefer P. gigas over melanochrysum, both lovely tho 🧡.

i wonder where you keep all those plants.. 🤔 that grow cabinet must be like from Harry Potter or something.. 10 times larger inside than out.. 😅 re: gigas.. yes, version #3 :))

What is your ebay shop called. This is one way we can help x

Biceps though..

Pseudoverrucosum isn’t a velvet leaf philodendron.

You’re the hottest thing on youtube
