Holy giant roots and leaves!!! 😍😍. Oooo...your Cuprea! I just love it! It looks plastic and the leaves are so beautiful on the back too! I like the larger one in the corner.It will be perfect when a new leaf comes in. Great job, minimal mess, no damage and two happy plants 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💗
Thanks Kimberly. I did keep the larger one in the corner and hope they cover soon! Do you still have Instagram? Send me what those cards you were talking about look like.
Jeff, I think you need a bigger pencil for this job! Lol Even though you aren’t confident in your care for the BOP, I still would’ve liked to know what you have been doing. It looks full and healthy so you are doing something right! Plant on! 😀 I like the larger BOP in the corner
I just found one of my Silver Sword leaves trying to come out but appeared stuck. I used your warm cloth method and was able to get it unstuck with no damage. Thanks so much for this tip!!
Thanks for the longer video!!! Your BOP is so gorgeous! I have 2, a smaller one (that was actually DOA last winter and has since been growing beautifully) and a large one. I actually want to pot them up together! 😂 I love the look of a super full plant.
Hahaha...doing the compete opposite of me. I wanted to keep them together but it got difficult rotating it in such a small area. Hahahaha large plant in small area....didn't think that one through
The Bird of Paradise is a lovely plant i like the one that produces the white flowers. That one is hard to find in a large size. Big plants is the hardest to repot if i had a garden be the perfect place to repot. I recently purchased the Ficus Tineke and Burgundy finally found one that is big and tall a 5ft one. Both of these are my favourites. Great in my big corner spaces. I like to repot my plants straight away when i get them as the soil they come in is usually nasty or in peat soil which is not airy enough to drain when watering. Also in case have pests especially ones you purchased in a garden store.
BOP we can grow those outside, there’s some huge ones even here in North Florida. I have one in a pot that I move in side during freezing temperatures. Love your cuprea
Thanks so much for this video. Its good for us to see that the professionals do things the same way we do. I repotted a monastra today, I really needed 3 hands. BTW I think the smaller one
My bop has crinkly leaves. I noticed yours also has this. I was told its lack of humidity? I also love look of fuller plants and put 3 baby ones in one big pot.
Love the B of Paradise l have a big 1 in my back yard l am trying to dig it out can l cut the rout part of it just part it because its so big l been soaking everyday by the roots to dig it out because l want to put it in pots thank you
Hi Jeff....I like the bigger one for that corner. Maybe you can turn it a little bit so that the smaller stem one does not stay too close to the wall. I like them both. Mabuhay from the Philippines!
I am cracking up because I have been watching so many birds of paradise repotting videos to find out how to fix my leaning plant and you are the FIRST one to address it! When you said it was kinda frustrating I totally giggled because I am having the same frustration! I think I am going to follow your lead and try planting a little deeper. I also might put some larger rocks around the base if potting deeper doesn’t help-I’m not sure yet. Ugh. I’m with you!
Also, thanks for the tip about the leaves. I sometimes run a wet finger along the edge, but have forgotten to do this the last couple of leaves and have some splits. A washcloth seems much more effective!
How do you encourage side shoots? I’m about to receive a BOP that is about 10 ft tall but only has 6 leaves. I’m trying to research how to make it fuller and revive it a bit. 🤞🏻
Your BOPs are beautiful! I have a white BOP that I'm struggling with. It's outdoors so it gets plenty of light but I think mine is getting overwatered.its opening a new leaf right now so at least it isn't fully deceased 😅
WOW! I have a rescue from Home Depot that was almost dead (got 75% off ), but is now getting a new leaf after repotting. I hope mine gets as big as yours under grow bulbs inside! Watering still terrifies me with this plant, I had to cut most of roots off because it had root rot from the store, then prop it up with a stake.. Any tips for watering? Yours looks super healthy!
Great job saving that plant! I am a chronic under waterer so I let mine get dry.....then give it a really good soaking under it c9mes out the drain hole
I've got a bird of paradise I grew the darn thing for 3 year beautiful big leaves I adopted a kitten needless I have one leaf left .Oh yes still have my cat Ruby
Hi. I recently bought a beautiful BOP and accidently one of it's best tender leaf's stalk snapped off, the outer covering is still intact. Can u suggest what to do now, I have just supported it to the adjacent stalk with tape. Thanks in advance
I just ordered 3, 4 inch BOP and I have no clue if they are orange or white... i guess ill know in a decade? LOL also I am a masochist.. I will probably refer to this video a lot... sooo you're welcome Jeff! HAHAH
@@EverythingPlants They were like 8 dollars each so I figured I may as well try them! I tend to have better luck with small plants that haven't spent a ton of time in the nursery getting huge when it comes to acclimating them to my home. I am obviously not in it for the instant gratification :P
I have had this way less then that...maybe a year. If it's anything like hoyas....you stress the out with more light and less water. You trick the plant into thinking it needs to reproduce. I'm just guessing BTW lol
@@EverythingPlants I just moved to a house w a skylight, I have had her under that. She has put out like two or three big leaves. Here's to hoping for next spring growing season. 😆👍💖
@@EverythingPlants thank you! Still, on my honest opinion, Strelitzia Nikolai performs and generally looks a slightly bit more robust than Strelitzia Alba (Augusta).
It started with a work shop table to do plant chores and evolved into my plant corner and TH-cam studio. My grow light plants grow all year round because of the grow lights!
Hey! I've been trying to do a mix of long and short videos as I get comments for both. With the longer ones I usually go through it a few times to make sure there isn't a ton of wasted time. I hope you continue to stick around the channel
Dude, separating plants with a pencil (should have used a knife for a clean cut) and letting it get too dry? Not a very good example for a TH-cam channel.
The pencil ✏️ has always worked for me. I'm not telling anyone to use it, so you can continue to use anything that you choose for your plants. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Melissa! The care is pretty basic....just give it lots of light and water when it's almost dry. At least that's what I do lol
I just found one of my Silver Sword leaves trying to come out but appeared stuck. I used your warm cloth method and was able to get it unstuck with no damage. Thanks so much for this tip!!
Wow! Super cool....I've never done it with a philodendron
Nice plant! Like the larger one in the corner. Thanks for sharing Jeff.
The birds of paradise??? Thanks Carol
Plants
What an awesome plant Jeff! Thanks for the detailed video 🙂Love your channel!
Thanks so much!
That monstera is gorgeous 😍
@@ShaniRashida you should see it today!
Loved the video. Wow, quite the job getting that huge plant split and repotted. Looks nice. 💚🌱🪴🌿💚
Thanks Karen!
warm cloth worked immediately for my bird of paradise leaf thats been trying to unfurl for a month, thanks!
Nice! It must require high humidity to get that film off the edges of the leaf
I’m learning about my BOP also. Any and all content in the future would be appreciated! Such beautiful plants!!
So far pretty easy...just needs lots of light
Good information about the roots. Lovely plant.
Thanks Norma!

Hey Mandi. I am assuming you have a BOP....did yours flower?
BOP we can grow those outside, there’s some huge ones even here in North Florida. I have one in a pot that I move in side during freezing temperatures. Love your cuprea
Hey Keith. I wish I could have these growing in my yard year round
Isn't the. Cuprea. Gorgeous. 😲 Wow. Such glossy leaves.
@@EverythingPlants places like Florida, Arizona, parts of Texas and California pretty lucky to be able too
Thank you for sharing amazing video have a blessed day
You too!
Thanks so much for this video. Its good for us to see that the professionals do things the same way we do. I repotted a monastra today, I really needed 3 hands. BTW I think the smaller one
I am not a professional by any means....but thank you!
My bop has crinkly leaves. I noticed yours also has this. I was told its lack of humidity? I also love look of fuller plants and put 3 baby ones in one big pot.
Hello Josie. My humidity down there is pretty consistent at 60% so I can't really say. And do you mean crinkly as in curling?
@@EverythingPlants like dimples or wrinkles on edge. I try to mist it when I see it unfurling too.
Oh ya....I'm not sure why that happens
I love using promax too for my plants it is a great soil and it just holds enough moisture for the plant to be happy and Canadian made
Nice! Overall it's a nice soil.
Dude! You are confident and brave! I hope your BOPS have done well since this repot😊
Yes, but I completely cut them back almost to the soil haha 😂
I'm going to purchase that soil!!
Propagate. Divide And conquer. I give gifts of the divisions. When they get too huge. Good luck 😃🤞. Jeff.
I usually give mine away as well to friends or family
@@EverythingPlants that's the best thing.

Oh no....
When I transplanted mine outside in the ground, I had too literally destroy the pot the BOP was in.
Wow! That must have been a lot of roots!
I had to stake my but she made it through the winter. Now she doesn't need the stake.❤😊
Could you have staked the plant until the roots anchored it?
For sure. Both plants are doing fine unsupported. Thanks for watching
What is that metallic top maroon bottom leaf elephant ear called it’s beautiful

Is this Strelitzia Nikolai or Augusta?!?
Not sure to be honest. Nicolai I'm assuming
@@EverythingPlants thank you! Still, on my honest opinion, Strelitzia Nikolai performs and generally looks a slightly bit more robust than Strelitzia Alba (Augusta).
Is that a bird of paradise or travellers palm?
Birds of paradise
Why can’t u keep both in the corner
Takes up too much space
💚💚
Thanks!
Why do you have your plants ,down stairs where’s there is no sun ?
