Binge watched your videos and bought 19 new plants....my bank manager is going to think I'm smoking some good herb 😂😂😂😂 I'm blaming it all on you lol I'm so excited for them all to arrive
One of the only humans on the planet that when you smile, I cannot NOT smile - like a yawn. If only they sold grow lights as warm as you, we would be set for life.
I love listening to your videos. Especially when I’m driving or doing chores. It feels like we’re best friends chatting and showing each other plants lol
I only have 15-20 plants 🙈 but my top 5 are: Hoya carnosa krimson queen, aglaonema sparkling Sarah, variegated string of hearts, rhaphidophora tetrasperma, and pilea peperomioides.
First off, love to watch your videos. Sometimes I think I hear myself speaking about plants or just personal things. But here are my choices of plants that I would keep for now if I had to choose; Philodendrons Scandens micans, Splendid, Gloriosum, Melanochrysum, El choco red, because of the soft (wanna stroke them) leaves Alcasios Silver dragon scale don't know why, she's just relax no issues Alocasia frydek, got a few and the babies are just so cute Alocasia jacklyn, just because it's weird My bird if paradise, she's just chill and big! One of my marantas, just love to watch them go to sleep Arabin jasmine, easy and smells so lovely when she's flowering. Dendrobium antennatum, just weird with beautiful flowers Bulbophyllum falcatum, just cute with tiny flowers. Ghost orchid, weird roots but the flower is amazing. Just hoping she'll makes it. Her terrarium got a crack with my last move. So I had to repot her🤞 And the last plant I would do anything to keep her. She's not the most beautiful at the moment but she was my dads that past away 10 years ago and he had her for as far I can remember. It was his favourite, the Epiphyllum oxypetalum. I had to chop her up because so was way to big. And know I have a lot of smaller ones and the mother plant.
Such a cool thought experiment! My collection is way smaller but here’s my top 10 list: 1) anthurium clarinervium 2) alocasia polly 3) calathea makoyana 4) pothos cebu blue 5) schaefflera nora 6) chlorophytum fire orange 7) philodendron micans 8) pilea peperomioides 9) begonia maculata 10) peperomia argyrea
Love your chatty ways, it’s like having a coffee with u in your home, thanks for inviting us in, I only have 10 indoor plants and the rest on the covered patio, being in Brisbane I am pretty lucky with them growing well!
I’ve really cut down to a whopping three plants. Two different snake plants and a succulent. I LOVE ♥️ LOVE ♥️ LOVE that big cactus you have! (The most plants I had was 26 plants years ago). L.O.V.E. your videos, thank you Claire & Uli from Canada 😀
I love when you talk about your Euphorbias, the ones I’ve seen from your collection are both soo magnificent! And the Hoya linearis is so unique and beautiful, another wishlist plant of mine ❤️
I love my Pep Incana, too. It’s one of the few duplicates I have and would definitely be in my top 15. I would also keep my Gloriosum because it was a gift from my husband. Others would be Alocasia Dragon Scale, Scindapsus Exotica and Jade, Philo El Choco Red, Monstera Esqueleto, Anthurium Luxurians and Calathea Orbifolio. It’s a hard decision when you have so many great plants. I kind of wish I could get my collection down to just those. Life would be easier, but not as much fun!
The Linearis is a Legend! My friend got a single 10 'leaf' cutting in a mixed cutting box and didn't want it, so she gifted it to me. I cut it into 5 pieces and rooted it straight into soil. All 5 pieces rooted and put out new growth (even during winter). Within 6 months most of the cuttings were about 50cm long, so I could chop and prop again. Within a year I had a full plant with the majority being about 1m long.... all from its original gifted cutting that I chopped into 5x 2 'leaf' cuttings. It grows through all seasons, has thrived in low light, medium light and direct sun. I've had mine for nearly 3 years now
Hmmmm… Episcia, variegated African Violet, croton, alocacia Jacklyn, ficus Benjamin, Ming, Hoya carnosa, angel wing begonia, string of pretty much anything, philodendron micans, pretty much any pothos, syngonium albo… and though I don’t own these, variegated Frydek, autumn embers begonia…
Very hard to narrow down but mine would be: Philodendron majestic Scindapsus tricolor Syngonium wendlandii Gloriosum white vein Philodendron Billietiae Tradescantia golden hill Aglaonema whie rain Philodendron patriciae Philodendron bipennifolium variegated Variegated frydek Manjula pothos Monstera el salvador Scindapsus snake scale
Hello,Claire! Thank you for your sincere videos! I watch them every day. Please make video about springtails. It is huge problem for me. How do you eliminate and avoid them? I use insecticide, but they appear after several weeks.
I just found your video s ,am binge watching..i❤ it all. And have some questions. I saw the mos pole, did you make it yourself? Do you also have some diy ideas? I am aeger to run to get some hanging plants..i have 60 plants.. I am also impressed you know all the plant names and your talking...non stop❤
Your splendid is looking so good! 🎉 I’d have to think about which plants I would pick if I could only keep 10-15, but a couple that come to mind immediately: My Monstera albo, philodendron gloriosum, philodendron Florida ghost, and anthurium crystallinum ❤
I only have about 100 plants and this was even hard for me Top 5: Monstera Deliciosa Golden Pothos Philo Fuzzy Petiole Global Green Pothos Alocasia Poly
You tried to save a fly from a spider web? The only reason I can deal with spiders in my flat is because I know they eat insects,... and as such get rid of animals that also terrify me (I really struggle with all that have an "exoskeleton", so insects, spiders, crabs,... But for crustaceans, it's not that bad as I never had one walking up to me in my flat XD I'd never rescue a fly from a spider, because that would make two "dangers" for me (I know, it's irrational, but that's how my brain perceives all that.)
I would love a video, or maybe you have one already that you could link that I haven’t found yet, on how to plant/grow plants like your Monstera Dubia on a pole or plank like that?! I haven’t tried it before and too afraid to. I want to try it with my Monstera Adansonii! 🫶🏼❤
🇦🇺 Love your segments Claire! I always want to go and buy more plants after watching them lol. I've always been an outdoor gardener but started with house plants last year. I love my peperomias, it would be hard to choose from the 20ish I have. I also adore selaginella and have several varieties but erythropus is my favourite. I fell in love with Alocasia tiny dancer the instant I saw it and it's just divine! Most definitely the plant that will always be with me is my jade. My late father gave it to me 20 years ago!
I’ve had my Agleonema “Marie” for 15 years and since I’ve put it in Pon it has grown at an unbelievable rate and now I’m in the process of putting all my other Agleonema plants in Pon too! I wish I could show a picture because it has never been such a full pot.
Living in Southern California, I can’t imagine wanting to own a birds of paradise bc they are in nearly everyone’s landscape. So interesting to see how people in different regions value certain things. I do own countless succulents and cacti that I make arrangements with and I tend to avoid humid needing plants bc I can’t be bothered to baby them in the summer dry heat. My ~150 or so plants don’t hold a candle to the gorgeous greenery you own.
Same! I was shocked by that. They grow everywhere here in Florida & my home in Hawaii. They would probably feel the same about some of the plants we value in the states.
I have a euphoria acruensis that is one long stem with about four little stems at the top, and two at the bottom. Do they naturally branch out like that as they grow, or do you have to induce it?
Assuming that one didn’t need to worry about low light or toxicity, and thinking easier care, not too complicated, I’d choose 15 Hoya. 😂 but if I had to limit myself to one Hoya, I’d choose: Hoya carnosa Krimson Queen, Ficus Rubber plant, dracaena “corn plant,” Ctenanthe (any), Monstera, African milk tree euphorbia, lipstick plant (black pagoda), Pothos (any), purple oxalis, snake plant, kangaroo paw fern, ponytail palm, Brazil philodendron, aloe, pilea peperomioides.
What? No Peperomia Hope? I thought I knew you! 🤣😂🤣😂 I change favorites about every five minutes.🙃 Right now I'm on a Scindapsus and Aglaonema kick. Before that, Ferns and Begonia... I can't choose! 🤷♀
Ugh that aglaonema silver queen is amazing looking! I need one😂 My top 10 out of my collection (Which is probably a third of my plants 😂) 1. My angel wing begonia because I keep it next to a picture of my angel daughter so it makes it very special to me. And it has adorable pink flowers that bloom on it. 2. Purple Shamrock because my grandmother gave it to me and i love watching the leaves on it open and close throughtout the day 3. Alocasia Zebrina because it was one of my first plants and I love how exotic it looks and its kindve a rare find 4. Red Maranta because Im obsessed with prayer plants and I have a goal to collect them all *I currently have 6 different varieties* 5. Monstera Deliciosa because my husband got it for me for Mothers day and I love watching new leaves unfurl from it 6. Marble Queen pothos I got when I first got into plants because shes low maintenance and gorgeous The half moon leaves are my favorite 7. My mix of tradescantia (nanouk and fluminesis varigata) because its super long and grows fast and was a gift from my grandmother 8. Caladium Lindenii because I LOVE how the white veins contrast the deep green of the leaves. 9. Ficus Shivereana because the variation is different on it than any of my other plants 10. Scindapsus Exotica because as soon as I saw it I needed one...and who doesnt love silver leaves? 😍🥰
#1 My number one to have and keep... Beefsteak Begonia 🪴💚💚💚 #2 All my varieties of Sansevierias... the Whale Fin maybe favorite #3 Schismatoglottis Wallichii OMG 🪴💚 #4 Warscewiczii Aurea 💚🪴 #5 String of Hearts #6 White Aspen Dracaena #7 Dawn (Variegated) Alocasia #8 Peperomias #9 Abyssinian Euphorbia #10 Silver Streak Philodendron #11 Cling-On Anastasia Ficus Benjamin #12 Alii Long Leaf Ficus This is not all... but it's enough to mention. I love watching your videos, and seeing all your plants.
Here's how you save snapped leaves (and stems): Treat it like a broken bone 😂 Use 1-3 supports (toothpicks for smaller structures, orchid stakes for larger structures). Wrap it in something wide and breathable so it won't strangle the plant and avoid mold, I use non-glossy washi tape. Keep an eye on it if you shower the plant, make sure the "bandage" doesn't get wet or dirty. If it does, carefully change it. Most leaves will heal over time and survive for another few months. I've had a leaf on a Pachira that survived over a year this way.
I have probably 6 nice size statement plants I’d choose those first because there bigger and ive had them longer. Nothing fancy just a regular pothos, a brazil, Christmas cactus, curly spider plant, snake plant, silver bay aglionema. After that I’d probably choose couple cactus, couple hoyas, adansonii, tineke,umbrella plant, ginseng ficus, whale fin , neon philo. All easy fun to watch
In home between a little over 60 plants, think Umbellata and Schleffera (var.) are my oldest tops. Then my Baltic Blue Pothos, Goeldii, Aglaonema Rice, Dracaena Sunray, Black Pagoda Lipstick, Alocasia Polly, Red Imperial Caladium, and my Variegated China Doll.
Love your content, and I have to say you have made me want to get more plants. I love my chinese silver evergreen (Aglaonema), my monstera deliciosa, my fiddle leaf fig, ficus benjamina, my rubber plant. I have many others and just aquired baby rubber plant, calathea peacock plant, philodendron white knight, peperomia raindrop. I love my plants but I'm battling fugus gnats. Do u find that you dont have gnats in the soil mix you use?
Have you ever had, spidemites, whilst having the beneficial bug 'bags'? Can the beneficial bugs, cure a spidermites outbreak, or are the only for healthy plants as a preventitative method? Yours sincerely. 🌳💚
Love your channel. 100% with you about Aglaonemas. I only ever had a Silver Bay that unfortunately died due to months of extreme cold (-1 C) after we had to leave our house following a fire in the Winter. It actually struggled on but I got it out too late. Anyway, before then I’d had it for years and it was the most care free plant ever and always looked like it was almost fake, it was so perfect. Seeing your Cutlass, I think I’ll be searching for that for when we move back to our house. It’s stunning and so nice to have a plant that’s easy care for a change. Love your content and have learned a lot. You are also a lovely warm person and your videos are relaxing and motivating. Thanks so much for what you do and keep going strong! 🌿
Many of your top plants are also mine! Hoya linearis, alocacia frydek, philodendron Jose buono and el choco red are on my list too but also my euphorbia white ghost, Hoya Serpens, orchids, ficus elastica, whale fin snake plant and monstera albo I couldn’t live without.
So many beautiful plants 😍💚 you got me really interested in Aglaonemas, and is now a proud owner of a Vanilla Baby 😍 I am also waiting fått my varigated A. Frydek 😁💚
20:00 - there is a Jose buono in a local greenhouse that someone potted up and left (no moss pole or anything) and it started crawling along the ground. Must be loving it because it has almost 3 foot long leaves!
I totally agree with your aglaonema obsession! I just recently brought home 4 small aglaonema and I love them! My pink pearl and golden Madonna are my 2 faves right now! But I'm building up the courage to splurge on a Manila's pride 🥰 my #1 fave is my huge Anthurium vittarifolium but it has spider mites right now and I'm super bummed about it 😢
Every time I think about downsizing, I always start with what plants would make me really sad if something happened to them - I know which ones I absolutely need to keep and are my favorite! And then which ones do I really really like watching grow.
Great list! My alocasia bambino is probably my favourite plant right now. It lost a few leaves after I bought it and planted it in my terrarium, but it's put out so many new glossy leaves since then. My second favourite is my red siam aglaonema. It's easy to care for and so colourful- the center of each leaf is splotched with yellow and green, rimmed with red around the outside, and the stems are pink!
Those 2 monkeys in the corner of your living room stole the show for me haha. Haha is there a back story to them? Love your videos, please keep them coming 😊
Loved this video! The hoya linearis is one of my wishlist plants. I feel like everyone I see online has one but I can’t for the life of me find an established plant in stores or online in the US which I find so odd. Hoping I’ll find one soon!
Binge watched your videos and bought 19 new plants....my bank manager is going to think I'm smoking some good herb 😂😂😂😂 I'm blaming it all on you lol I'm so excited for them all to arrive
One of the only humans on the planet that when you smile, I cannot NOT smile - like a yawn. If only they sold grow lights as warm as you, we would be set for life.
I love the little fish-shaped variegation on your Jose Buono! 🐟
I love listening to your videos. Especially when I’m driving or doing chores. It feels like we’re best friends chatting and showing each other plants lol
I really do love your relaxing videos they alway make me wanna get my plants out and do plant care (and buy more plants lol) 💕🙏🏾

I only have 15-20 plants 🙈 but my top 5 are: Hoya carnosa krimson queen, aglaonema sparkling Sarah, variegated string of hearts, rhaphidophora tetrasperma, and pilea peperomioides.
First off, love to watch your videos. Sometimes I think I hear myself speaking about plants or just personal things.
But here are my choices of plants that I would keep for now if I had to choose;
Philodendrons Scandens micans, Splendid, Gloriosum, Melanochrysum, El choco red, because of the soft (wanna stroke them) leaves
Alcasios Silver dragon scale don't know why, she's just relax no issues
Alocasia frydek, got a few and the babies are just so cute
Alocasia jacklyn, just because it's weird
My bird if paradise, she's just chill and big!
One of my marantas, just love to watch them go to sleep
Arabin jasmine, easy and smells so lovely when she's flowering.
Dendrobium antennatum, just weird with beautiful flowers
Bulbophyllum falcatum, just cute with tiny flowers.
Ghost orchid, weird roots but the flower is amazing. Just hoping she'll makes it. Her terrarium got a crack with my last move. So I had to repot her🤞
And the last plant I would do anything to keep her. She's not the most beautiful at the moment but she was my dads that past away 10 years ago and he had her for as far I can remember. It was his favourite, the Epiphyllum oxypetalum. I had to chop her up because so was way to big. And know I have a lot of smaller ones and the mother plant.

Love your chatty ways, it’s like having a coffee with u in your home, thanks for inviting us in, I only have 10 indoor plants and the rest on the covered patio, being in Brisbane I am pretty lucky with them growing well!
I’ve really cut down to a whopping three plants. Two different snake plants and a succulent. I LOVE ♥️ LOVE ♥️ LOVE that big cactus you have! (The most plants I had was 26 plants years ago). L.O.V.E. your videos, thank you Claire & Uli from Canada 😀
I love when you talk about your Euphorbias, the ones I’ve seen from your collection are both soo magnificent! And the Hoya linearis is so unique and beautiful, another wishlist plant of mine ❤️
Having you handling a spidermitey plant and not changing your top and handling other plants make me so nervous. I hope you can contain them quickly!
I love my Pep Incana, too. It’s one of the few duplicates I have and would definitely be in my top 15. I would also keep my Gloriosum because it was a gift from my husband. Others would be Alocasia Dragon Scale, Scindapsus Exotica and Jade, Philo El Choco Red, Monstera Esqueleto, Anthurium Luxurians and Calathea Orbifolio. It’s a hard decision when you have so many great plants. I kind of wish I could get my collection down to just those. Life would be easier, but not as much fun!
Your Jose buono has a fish in its variegation! Lovely video and very good choices
The Linearis is a Legend! My friend got a single 10 'leaf' cutting in a mixed cutting box and didn't want it, so she gifted it to me. I cut it into 5 pieces and rooted it straight into soil. All 5 pieces rooted and put out new growth (even during winter). Within 6 months most of the cuttings were about 50cm long, so I could chop and prop again. Within a year I had a full plant with the majority being about 1m long.... all from its original gifted cutting that I chopped into 5x 2 'leaf' cuttings. It grows through all seasons, has thrived in low light, medium light and direct sun. I've had mine for nearly 3 years now
@annawebb6289 I’m so jealous! I have 3 linearis plants and they are such slow growers!
The Jose Buono leaf looks like it has a little cartoon fish in the variegation lol 😆 🐟
I saw that tool!
Hmmmm… Episcia, variegated African Violet, croton, alocacia Jacklyn, ficus Benjamin, Ming, Hoya carnosa, angel wing begonia, string of pretty much anything, philodendron micans, pretty much any pothos, syngonium albo… and though I don’t own these, variegated Frydek, autumn embers begonia…
Snake plants are my #1 favorite plants!
Very hard to narrow down but mine would be:
Philodendron majestic
Scindapsus tricolor
Syngonium wendlandii
Gloriosum white vein
Philodendron Billietiae
Tradescantia golden hill
Aglaonema whie rain
Philodendron patriciae
Philodendron bipennifolium variegated
Variegated frydek
Manjula pothos
Monstera el salvador
Scindapsus snake scale
Hello,Claire! Thank you for your sincere videos! I watch them every day. Please make video about springtails. It is huge problem for me. How do you eliminate and avoid them? I use insecticide, but they appear after several weeks.
I just found your video s ,am binge watching..i❤ it all.
And have some questions.
I saw the mos pole, did you make it yourself?
Do you also have some diy ideas?
I am aeger to run to get some hanging plants..i have 60 plants..
I am also impressed you know all the plant names and your talking...non stop❤
Looking back at this, my GOD THE DUBIA HAS GROWN MASSIVE? GIRL IT'S LIKE DOUBLED IN SIZE IN 5 WINTER MONTHS
Your splendid is looking so good! 🎉
I’d have to think about which plants I would pick if I could only keep 10-15, but a couple that come to mind immediately: My Monstera albo, philodendron gloriosum, philodendron Florida ghost, and anthurium crystallinum ❤
I only have about 100 plants and this was even hard for me
Top 5:
Monstera Deliciosa

What trailing plant would be best for a low light north facing window ?? 🙏🏻
I have a euphoria acruensis that is one long stem with about four little stems at the top, and two at the bottom. Do they naturally branch out like that as they grow, or do you have to induce it?
I love your plants so much! And I’m glad you can have more than 15! 😊
7:08 I would love to have that one. But strangely enough I have never seen it in stores or on Marketplace here.
Assuming that one didn’t need to worry about low light or toxicity, and thinking easier care, not too complicated, I’d choose 15 Hoya. 😂 but if I had to limit myself to one Hoya, I’d choose: Hoya carnosa Krimson Queen, Ficus Rubber plant, dracaena “corn plant,” Ctenanthe (any), Monstera, African milk tree euphorbia, lipstick plant (black pagoda), Pothos (any), purple oxalis, snake plant, kangaroo paw fern, ponytail palm, Brazil philodendron, aloe, pilea peperomioides.

8. Caladium Lindenii because I LOVE how the white veins contrast the deep green of the leaves.
9. Ficus Shivereana because the variation is different on it than any of my other plants
10. Scindapsus Exotica because as soon as I saw it I needed one...and who doesnt love silver leaves? 😍🥰

I love watching your videos, and seeing all your plants.
I love my Trandescantia "Nanouk", Alocasia Black Velvet, Philodendron Melanochrysum and Alocasia Frydeka Variegated!
Here's how you save snapped leaves (and stems):
Treat it like a broken bone 😂
Use 1-3 supports (toothpicks for smaller structures, orchid stakes for larger structures). Wrap it in something wide and breathable so it won't strangle the plant and avoid mold, I use non-glossy washi tape. Keep an eye on it if you shower the plant, make sure the "bandage" doesn't get wet or dirty. If it does, carefully change it.
Most leaves will heal over time and survive for another few months. I've had a leaf on a Pachira that survived over a year this way.
I have probably 6 nice size statement plants I’d choose those first because there bigger and ive had them longer. Nothing fancy just a regular pothos, a brazil, Christmas cactus, curly spider plant, snake plant, silver bay aglionema. After that I’d probably choose couple cactus, couple hoyas, adansonii, tineke,umbrella plant, ginseng ficus, whale fin , neon philo. All easy fun to watch
You tried to save the fly 😂🥹💕
In home between a little over 60 plants, think Umbellata and Schleffera (var.) are my oldest tops. Then my Baltic Blue Pothos, Goeldii, Aglaonema Rice, Dracaena Sunray, Black Pagoda Lipstick, Alocasia Polly, Red Imperial Caladium, and my Variegated China Doll.
Enjoyed your video. Amazing plant family. Noticed you do quite a bit of hydro soil. Does this work for all plant types?
Love your content, and I have to say you have made me want to get more plants. I love my chinese silver evergreen (Aglaonema), my monstera deliciosa, my fiddle leaf fig, ficus benjamina, my rubber plant. I have many others and just aquired baby rubber plant, calathea peacock plant, philodendron white knight, peperomia raindrop. I love my plants but I'm battling fugus gnats. Do u find that you dont have gnats in the soil mix you use?
Have you ever had, spidemites, whilst having the beneficial bug 'bags'?
Can the beneficial bugs, cure a spidermites outbreak, or are the only for healthy plants as a preventitative method?
Yours sincerely. 🌳💚
I also love my Peperomia incana!
Love your channel. 100% with you about Aglaonemas. I only ever had a Silver Bay that unfortunately died due to months of extreme cold (-1 C) after we had to leave our house following a fire in the Winter. It actually struggled on but I got it out too late. Anyway, before then I’d had it for years and it was the most care free plant ever and always looked like it was almost fake, it was so perfect. Seeing your Cutlass, I think I’ll be searching for that for when we move back to our house. It’s stunning and so nice to have a plant that’s easy care for a change. Love your content and have learned a lot. You are also a lovely warm person and your videos are relaxing and motivating. Thanks so much for what you do and keep going strong! 🌿
Enjoying catching up on older videos. I’ve had many similar experiences. You are enjoyable to listen to and very helpful.
Many of your top plants are also mine! Hoya linearis, alocacia frydek, philodendron Jose buono and el choco red are on my list too but also my euphorbia white ghost, Hoya Serpens, orchids, ficus elastica, whale fin snake plant and monstera albo I couldn’t live without.
That’s one hell of an alocasia
Really enjoyed this video. So very helpful as I grow my plant collection.
So many beautiful plants 😍💚 you got me really interested in Aglaonemas, and is now a proud owner of a Vanilla Baby 😍 I am also waiting fått my varigated A. Frydek 😁💚
20:00 - there is a Jose buono in a local greenhouse that someone potted up and left (no moss pole or anything) and it started crawling along the ground. Must be loving it because it has almost 3 foot long leaves!
I totally agree with your aglaonema obsession! I just recently brought home 4 small aglaonema and I love them! My pink pearl and golden Madonna are my 2 faves right now! But I'm building up the courage to splurge on a Manila's pride 🥰 my #1 fave is my huge Anthurium vittarifolium but it has spider mites right now and I'm super bummed about it 😢
My favorites are my string of pearls, philodendron squamiferum, and allocasia regal shield
Every time I think about downsizing, I always start with what plants would make me really sad if something happened to them - I know which ones I absolutely need to keep and are my favorite! And then which ones do I really really like watching grow.
Anthurium clarinervium is my number one. Ctenathe Amagris is also on my list. Philodendron Brasil and all my aglaonemas :)
Your plants are beautiful Claire! I've moved a lot of mine to pon and they're doing great. How do you fertilize yours? ❤
Hello the #5 plant what kind of clips are those holding plant to beam ? I am in the USA . I love your channel thank you for all the great info ❤
Great list! My alocasia bambino is probably my favourite plant right now. It lost a few leaves after I bought it and planted it in my terrarium, but it's put out so many new glossy leaves since then.
My second favourite is my red siam aglaonema. It's easy to care for and so colourful- the center of each leaf is splotched with yellow and green, rimmed with red around the outside, and the stems are pink!
I so hate mealy bugs 😡
Pilea peperomioides
The bird of paradise grow ouside here in Australia, and grow like weeds and produce beautiful flowers that look like birds
Good ❤
Those 2 monkeys in the corner of your living room stole the show for me haha. Haha is there a back story to them? Love your videos, please keep them coming 😊
You seem to be unlucky with spidermites are the predatory mites not helping?
Bought a bear paw cactus because of this channel and loving it!
Thanks , your plants so beautiful as well as you. 🌸
Great faves. Thanks for sharing Claire!
I love all the plants you selected! Great video Claire!
Loved this video! The hoya linearis is one of my wishlist plants. I feel like everyone I see online has one but I can’t for the life of me find an established plant in stores or online in the US which I find so odd. Hoping I’ll find one soon!
Maybe trade it or buy it from someone instead of a store?
Awesome Channel: ❤#SousaFamilyGarden I would choose #AnthuriumFoliage #AnthuriumFoliageMulticolor
To pick favorites is so hard!
👍👍👍👍👍
Definitely my Moonlight philodendron, Hoya compacta and my old man cactus are my top 3❤
You should cut that mother leaf off the Jose Buono in my opinion, it looks goofy. That's what i do once the new growth is properly big enough.
Why did you try to save a fly? The spider need food too. Circle of live
