Good evening ... Has my plants list is getting longer ... My apartment is getting smaller ... Very nice Stromanthe ... And the Sansevieria in the background is spectacular ... Great video ... Subscribed and Liked ... And the notification bell is on , of course ... Thank you ...
I love this plant, but it’s a little more fussy about water and light than most other plants we keep in the home… I use filtered water as you suggested… city water, here is heavily chlorinated… It seems sensitive to this. Where is the other plants tolerate it..Has specific light requirements… It needs bright light… But any kind of direct sunlight even dappled seems to cause leaves to burn… However, with good attention, this plant can grow huge… Extending shoots/branches way up into the air… Worth trying if you have the patience…
Hi Stephen, Yes, Stromanthe is not as easy but I also love this plant regardless. It teaches me patience, acceptance and the need to pay attention to details. I have managed to keep my plant happy. You can see what it looks like today here: www.youtube.com/@Mycityplants/community Green Cheers & Thank you for watching 🌱
Thank you for this really helpful video Juliette! I'm thinking of getting a moisture meter for my Stromanthe plant. What should it read on my moisture monitor for me to rewater my stromanthe? And how far I stick my moisture monitor into the soil? Would really appreciate your help on this.
Hi Renee, I water my Stromanthe when the meter test results are is in the dry zone 1-3 Insert the meter as deep as possible without hitting the pot’s bottom. Test the soil once every 7-10 days: Green Cheers ! 🌱
Hi! Thank you for watching. I do not have any experience in growing plants outdoors (in ground) and, unfortunately, can not advise you on the best approach here. May your Stromanthe plant grow happy and healthy! Green Cheers!
Hi! You only need 1 meter for the unlimited number of plants. You can buy it here: bit.ly/2yuXVpc Watch my video about how to use this tool: bit.ly/3p0H7NI Green Luck and thank you for watching 🌱
@@Mycityplants thank you but you also have a level indicator inside the plant the clear one, not the green I have one of those! I wonder where you find your little clear indicator on the plant
Oh, the tube. This is the part of the sub-irrigation system of the planter - water level indicator of the water reservoir. We sell the self-watering planters here : mycityplants.com/collections/planters Shipping nationwide. 🌱
Hi! The color-changing can simply be a natural process. Triostar”s white color is one of the leaf color combo pattern. The back side of the leaf will appear lighter if the top of the leaf is a light color. Make sure your plant gets a good amount of light!!! Thank you for watching! 🌱
Hi Sabbir, Thank you for watching! 🌱 Yes, most of the time I use tap water. Also, in my self-watering planter there is a special subtract at the bottom of the inner pot (part of the sub-irrigation system) that filters water. You may fill up the watering can and let it sit overnight before watering your plants.
I am so happy I found your channel. Stromanthe and calathea and maranta are my favs. Please tell me what are you using on your walls to hang the plants that way? Thanks

Your plants look very happy. Look forward to seeing your videos. I have my begonias in lechuza deltini and they are doing well. Thanks from Canada.
Woohoo! Glad to know your plants love this perfect house. Thank you for watching! 🌱
I was just given this plant- or should I say saved it from being thrown in the woods. I cleaned her up, put her in a new pot, I love her.
Woohoo! Thank you for sharing, Jane.
May your plant grow happy and healthy! 🌱

The colour of my trio star backside is fading or the bright red color is becoming white . can you tell what the problem is ?
Hi! The color-changing can simply be a natural process. Triostar”s white color is one of the leaf color combo pattern.
The back side of the leaf will appear lighter if the top of the leaf is a light color.
Make sure your plant gets a good amount of light!!!
