SAME!!!!!!! It was in December when I found her too, I have new eyes when it comes to going to garden centers now. I bought my first hoya last month… And so sequentially several after.
I am so happy for you experimenting with communal living. My wife and I established a community house and to say it got off to a rocky start is certainly an understatement. Nevertheless it has been one of the best choices we ever made. It took some hard lessons and a bit of turnover, especially since a pandemic struck right after we got the house, but we are super happy now. Humans are naturally adapted to this style of living. I really think most people would be much more happy and healthy in a communal living setting, just like our plants. I hope we get to hear more updates about your transition into communal living and I hope they embrace a jungle atmosphere with you! I'll have to start following along again with your journey 💖
Leca is amazing for putting in gravel trays. It saved me so many time last year when growing peppers and tomatoes, which needed potting on sooner than I realised. Just a shame it’s quite expensive. I’ve grown my Christmas paper whites in it this year. Thank you summer, I now have too many houseplants all thanks to your videos and really loved watching the botanical garden videos and listening the experts.
A Christmas bulbs/ forced bulb tip: use Leca in a glass vessel, pop your bulbs in cover with moss, water just below the bulbs bottom. Once they have finished flowering you can plant in in the garden or bin them. Rinse your Leca ready for next time. No more spent compost. It’s fascinating watching how much root growth a bulb can produce in a day.
When I was a child my aunt bottled up root beer and it was so good! I can remember helping 😀 but I can’t remember much except for the delicious taste of it. Please do tell your recipe!
Thanks for the video👍 if i may post a couple of observations on mine,when they go dormant they go properly dormant for 6 months, no half measures even under a grow light in a heated room. They gluttate a lot after watering, i put a fan on mine for several days after watering to aviod disease. After propagating i got them on a moss pole as soon as possible and got fenistrations in there second summer, they are dormant now but the growth points are fat, fat fat! I,m excited to see the new growth next may. Have a great christmas everyone
@@mimosaminmoss There is a Floyd Wright house that was commissioned if I remember the story right for a farmhouse in Iowa. The floors and the countertop edge and the space in general is what made me connect it… If there’s even a connection. But it definitely gives off the same overall vibe.
I'm definitely going to be on the look out for a Rhaphi to propagate ~ they're beautiful! I dont think your videos could ever be 'lightweight' Summer ~ they're always so wonderfully detailed and informative, and you have thoroughly reawakened my interest in plants this year (fairly recent subscriber). Bless you for all the work you do. I wish you and yours a safe & Happy Christmas and joyful New Year 🌱
Great video! I killed two of my philodendron propogation when putting them in soil! I am definitely going to try this method the next time!! Thanks for sharing!
I have a niece named liana 😊 So happy to see the return of more educational, vlog style videos! No offense to the home tours 😅 Also, is brewing root beer similar to kombucha? Not that I can drink either. I just brew kombucha for family & friends since it gives me heartburn 😮💨
@@Jasapan-u4s They have become readily available in the US in the past few months. To the point that some of the sellers have too many and are selling them super-cheap now. So someone is having luck with rooting and propagation. It's just not me!
@@kyrad6543 , I know. So crazy. I see them more too and had exactly the same thoughts! Well, at least were not alone in our rhaphidaphora mom failure!😆
Put it under a grow light or a bright window. It should be pushing by now. Mines only take a couple one to two weeks to push out roots, on pretty much every cutting
I bought two wet sticks two years ago they took months to sprout in a heated propagator in moist perlite, the patience was worth it in the end, i would get them on a moss pole as soon as possible so they don't become runners i did that with mine and they gave me fenistrations this summer, good luck..
I have tried water, water with other plants (pothos), perlite, leca, sphagnum moss in a prop box and no roots. I just moved my cuttings to tephra as a last resort. I cannot get them to root at all.
I literally have my eye on one of these plants when I get paid February 3 and I'm gonna be spending $60 on a fairly decent size plant...and your kinda at faulty....lol. PURE PLEASURE I mean PRESSURE
First and foremost, how did you ever get that thing to root? I've been trying for going on 8 weeks now and my decursiva cuttings refuse to root. I've tried everything!
@@kyrad6543 i'm currently trying to root Philodendron Gloriosum Dark Form which just got root rot of my over-watering habit...LOL. Put it on my windowsill facing north. It's been 3 weeks and so far so good, many tiny roots appear and already giving me 2 new leaves. She is ready to be put in potting mix. But i'm living here in the tropic, Indonesia. Might be the more heat and humidity you give them, the faster they root. Because CMIIW...most rhaphidophora come from South East Asia.
