    What an excellent, well organised video on dark low light plants. Ignore the comments about showing less of your image and more of the plants. If people are writing or taking notes on the most important aspects of the video which is information, then they are not staring at the screen. You were great with your delivery of information. The progression of the video, covering the plant varieties, options, aesthetic aspects, your calm concise presentation and key maintenance details flowed effortlessly, and made easy viewing. Thank you for taking the time to produce a video that will help people with a tricky and frustrating issue.

      your video is about HOUSE plants, yet i didn't hear whether you told people that your plant examples are TOXIC to cats - many are extremely toxic, a couple are mildly, unless highly consumed - BUT ALL ARE TOXIC!!! please warn that their cats can DIE from these plants (or suffer painful, uncurable kidney disease). google all, as i did, and tell people about this tragic outcome from these low light plants.

    If you have a few plants that need distilled water save yourself the hassle and go to a pet store or Amazon or Walmart and order yourself a bottle of "Stresscoat" it's used on aquariums but it condish. your water and it saves you from endlessly buying distilled water by the gallon. Just buy a bottle and you add a small amount to a gallon pitcher at home and it lasts you for months and its also great from keeping your Spider plant from getting brown tips.

      You can also use the zero water filter system. It's what I use for my carnivorous plants.
      Of course, you have to stay on top of measuring the water, so you know when to change the filter. After a while, you know how many weeks or months until it has to change.

Also love that each segment shows the plant's name in writing unlike, again, many YT's yapping away and you're left with no idea of what the name of the plant, ingredient, etc is, much less how to spell it to be able to look it up later online. I simply love the format you've put together and enjoy your channel so much. I look forward to more of your videos 🌞 All the best to you!

    For the doubters…it’s amazing what you can bring indoors if you just put some effort in. I overwintered the following in my south facing bedroom, dining room and living room: three banana plants (one was six feet tall), four monstera, two very large bird of paradise, two dracena, three arabica bushes, three hibiscus, two Christmas palms, one Cara Cara orange, one lime, and one plumeria. This year, I bought two cheap,grow lights on Amazon and some neem oil. Everybody survived and are back outside for the summer. I started four years ago with just one or two mid size plants, which grew and yielded cuttings and pups, then I added more each summer.

    • @HouseplantHelp
      @HouseplantHelp  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Totally. It’s not as easy as just putting them inside anywhere and watering the same as you would outside. You gotta put in some effort and actually think about what you’re doing. I think a lot of people aren’t really putting much thought into it lol. I have a ton of stuff outside that I bring in for the Winter as well - I’ve got a cara cara too! My favorite orange!!

    I just discovered your channel and subscribed! Thank you for the list. It was a good one for sure. I've been an outdoor, and indoor gardener for close to 30 years. I still like to grab new information and learn the most modern ways to keep plants thriving. My family recently moved to Kentucky from San Francisco, CA. I had a potted tree fern that I kept outside on our porch. They are indeed beautiful and unique. And actually very, very easy to grow. They are not fussy about much. However, those little "hairs" you see on the fronds? They are irritating to the skin if you brush against the plant. The "hairs" dry up as the fronds mature and drop on whomever brushes against them and they are itchy!! I just wanted to let you and your viewers know that it's probably best to put it in a spot indoors where no one will brush against it.

    Glad I happened on your video today. I've always had trouble keeping plants alive. I love leaves and my son always buys me a beautiful selection of 3 or 4 plants in one container for my birthday. I really don't have a good set-up for plants. First floor bay windows, North and East walls, have electric baseboard heating just below them. From June through September, the heat is off; so no problem. The East window is deep enough where I can place pots on the sill. Once the heat comes on, it's a devastating atmosphere for the plants. My condo is small and there's no place to move the plants. It kills me because I love plants and flowers.
    I see people mentioned grow bulbs here. Sounds like an option. I'm concerned about an increase in electricity costs. I will investigate.
    Happy birthday to your partner. Thank her for sharing you with us. Thank you for sharing your enthusiasm in making a better environment around us. Greatly appreciated. All the best for your channel. ❤

    I bought 3 Australian Tree Ferns recently after seeing them all over Beverly Hills and searching all year for them at various nurseries. They are incredible and you described them perfectly. The three most common variety’s are Cyathea Cooperi, Cyathea Australis & Dicksonia. I personally like the look of the cooperi the best because on the trunk you will see the round coin shaped scars the fronds leave once they get removed. I remember the first time I saw one, it definitely looked like something from another planet or a fantasy movie. It’s like a palm tree with fern leaves instead of palm leaves. I’ve watched many videos on it and I’ve heard that they like bright indirect light. That’s what I’ve been giving them, but low light would also make sense as they are typically growing under the canopy of larger trees in the Australian rain forest.

    Thank you for this video... It's been more useful than you probably intended. I've long kept a houseplant or two in my home. However, last summer, I set out greenify my home (a condo with windows that only face NE). I keep a small variety of enclosed animals as well, so plants that also do well in terraria are especially appealing. I purchased a beautiful hanging basket of Selaginella uncinata and used clippings in some enclosures, and it worked out great... But, the mother plant suffered. I chopped her back almost to the soil about a month ago, and she's starting to sprout back, but my humidity gets low in winter, so I'm going to try to be diligent about misting to see if I can really bring her back... Gorgeous plant at a reasonable price if you can grow them!

    So glad i found this channel. I have been outdoor and indoor gardening for years. Indoor gardening when i left home and lived in an apartment. Outdoor gardening when i bought my home with nothing but grass; now it’s my little Eden . I am now indoor gardening again. Things have changed in 30 years so I’m glad to get current information.

    This is so helpful! I jotted down the ones I’m going to try to find. Thank you for compiling this information and showing the pictures of each specimen. The tips on growth, water, etc, is invaluable. I’m definitely going to try finding the Australian tree fern. I live close to a large metropolitan area in north Texas so I might have good luck. Thanks for providing your time and effort into making this video and then sharing it. 😊❤️

    Australian tree fern needs a lot of water. Mostly grows near rivers under dark canopies. Majestic in a natural environment ❤️

    My snake plant is now 10 years old and so easy to keep. A little water every week and sits 8 ft away from the window. Perfect for an apartment.

    Thank you so much - coming from someone who has a black thumb. I'm going to try the peacock fern/rainbow moss. It's lovely, and ferns are my favorite plants. I'm in NY state, so all types of ferns grow wild here. If the plant doesn't do well inside my home, I'll save it from me by planting it outdoors. It should thrive. Excellent video! Hugs

    Great well organised and captivating with tonnes of pointers. Thank you. I was thrown off course by the info on the peace Lilly though… that can certainly be killed with overwatering. It’s called the Prima Donna of all plants for a reason. Overwatering or underwater ing or water that is too chlorinated or over fertilising or underfertilizing will throw this beautiful plant off… I have one and it’s not always easy to keep those brown tips from starting and growing….
    Nevertheless most of this video was brilliant and will have me scouting for some more of these plants. Well done.

    When I lived in California I had an Australian Tree Fern in the flowerbed next to my entryway. It grew to a height just above the eve. I had a Gold Dust Acuba in front of it. They were sooo pretty together. Never knew you could grow that fern as a houseplant.

    I wish this video showed the plants only with audio. I had to pause to get a good look at some of them.
    Also, although some of these plants can tolerate low light, know that you'll be jeopardizing leaf size as well. Something I wish I knew about the snake plant.

  • @BrandyFalcon
    @BrandyFalcon 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great video! My office mate warned me when I moved in, that plants won’t grow in our dark suite. I took that as a challenge. I have 2 rooms, and have grow lights in one, but not in the other. 4/8 died in this last year. My problem is not the light, but overwatering. I’ve learned my lesson, so hope they survive, but will look back on this video when I need to replace. Or I may get a larger one for the lobby & reception area based on your list. Thanks so much!

    • @HouseplantHelp
      @HouseplantHelp  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah in an office I bet you would only need to water most plants once every 2 weeks, or even less for some stuff. Thanks for watching i appreciate it!

    WARNING ❤❤❤
    One comment was from a woman who moves several plants indoors. Warning:
    I moved 2 beautiful hydrangeas in off my deck so they wouldn't freeze. Weeks later l found YIKES!!! MICE !!! I caught one big fat one and 5 little ones. A fellow artist asked, dod you move a plant in? They get in through bottom drain hole and make a home in your plant. I had unwittingly moved mama in myself! My pantry was horrid! 😊😊😊

      I unknowingly moved geckos in when I lived in Florida. They climbed down the spider plant babies every morning and got a drink in the bathroom. I moved them back outside when the danger of freezing had passed. Geckos - respectful roommates, mice - not so much.
