A couple of really low maintenance Calatheas that I’ve found are the Freddie and the rufibarba. I rarely water mine maybe like once every two weeks and mine are doing great. Barely any brown crispy tips. So if you are looking for a low maintenance beautiful one, I would recommend those.

I cater to the needs of a lot of orchids that need special attention, but calatheas are really much much worse, maybe because orchids are much slower growing and don't spit out crusty leaves like they are spamming you with poo emojis.

Phalaenopsis bloomed for me after I learned they need 62° F overnights, minimum. Bonus when I started setting my thermostat to that my Vanda bloomed after caring for it 5 or 6 years (first time ever since I purchased it in bloom), although with the Vanda I was also giving it warm baths everytime I watered it, about body temperature. That was it, easy, just lowered the bedtime thermostat. It is so much more fun when they bloom for you, I agree! Also, FYI it was an immediate response in my phals.....I remember they put out tiny spikes within 2 days, amazing

@ofhismercy109 2 жыл бұрын

@@BuenosDiasPlants yes, this was easy to give them in Idaho, at least with the ones that were essentially waiting for those nighttime temperature drops to send up flower spikes. That is their signal. I just set the overnight thermostat to 62°F. That was enough. I would not go under 60° and not over 64°. Some of my collection spiked immediately, others didn't and I think that was because they were maybe summer bloomers. The winter bloomers spiked. This was in the autumn. The temperature was the key for me. That was really the first success I had getting them to rebloom. A friend of mine who had tons of success blooming orchids mentioned offhand to me later how she loved sleeping cold and never had her thermostat over 60° at night. I didn't learn this from her but the data and experiences coincided. Both my vanda and several phals flowered. Good luck to you!

When I was pregnant with a boy (didn’t happen with my girl) everything made me nauseous and smells bothered me so much. I love bacon. The smell of bacon suddenly made me run to the bathroom and wretch my guts out violently. I love my husband. He doesn’t smell bad. Suddenly the smell of him turned me off to the point that I had trouble hugging him. It was truly weird, because none of this happened prior to being pregnant with my son. Pregnant with daughter? None of these issues, completely different pregnancies in every way. After the baby boy was out-I was golden. I could fry bacon and hug the man without issue 😂

Hormones changing absolutely changes smelling. I know couples, personally know couples, who break up because once the woman started the pill, she couldn’t get turned on anymore because he no longer smelled good and in fact smelled “bad” to her. I began progesterone recently, and I’ve noticed that on random days my husband will smell bad; he’s a clean man and smells WONDERFUL, but on random days I can’t stand the smell. The other day I was near a bakery and the smell of coffee and fresh bread smelled like chemicals or burning plastic. Bread and coffee!!! Two of the most wonderful smells isn’t here world. Luckily this isn’t every day or even often.

I think Orchids get a bad rep pretty often. I see them being referred to as grandma plants in the plant groups I'm in (which is true for me as well, my grandma always had them and it's the reason I got into them). But there's so many interesting species with lots of different colors and flower shapes. I love mounting them to pieces of wood and getting them to bloom is so rewarding to me. I wish everyone could get the same gratification out of them!

Spikey plant idea - I keep some of my favorites in a fake decorative birdcage so they can be lower and get better light but they are inaccessible by my cats. I don't have kiddos so they could probably still stick their fingers in. It's a pain when it comes time to water, but thankfully they don't need it often.

The only thing I regret is purchasing a calathea before I understood how to take care of them because it died within 2 weeks, and also purchasing a pack of baby lithops instead of just getting well established ones because those also didn't make it. BUT, even with the list of plants that I didn't do well with and they died or I gave them away, I still love having gotten to learn from it all, so it's hard to say that it's a true regret. Thanks for sharing your opinions, I love to hear stuff like this and see if I feel the same or not :)

I love lithops, but there's alot you need to know about them before taking them on. I hope you give them another try sometime! I pot mine in straight pumice, they only get some water when they start to wrinkle and never when they begin to loose their set of leaves for the season. Their also cool season growers and go dormant around mid summer which means no water!

I completely agree with you about the hoyas. I am newly pregnant and have over 200 hoyas in my house. My least favourite hoya bloom, Hoya thomsonii is currently blooming and I hate hate hate it! I have a huge plant and I'm tempted to sell it just because of the scented blooms. But then I might regret it once I'm not pregnant anymore. We shall see!😌

Amen to the orchids! But I did get one to grow a baby on the stalk with that special paste

Love your videos and congrats on your new bundle of joy. As for the obliqua nodes Kaylee Ellen has a video explaining the growth pattern of obliquas and apparently sending out runners is what they do and it is extremely hard to get them to climb because they need so much humidity.

Peace Lilly Sensation option: Separate the plants and grow it in tall, narrow hanging containers using only water; soilless. Sooo much easier to keep some plants in just water when they do very well that way.

I completely relate to the Birds of Paradise. I live in an apartment and seeing my new leaf coming in and how tall it’s gonna be, I get worried about space. I didn’t think that it would grow so fast. It’s so pretty though! 😍

I don't think I have any plant buy regrets. I regret that I didnt toss the aleo plant outside sooner. It love it out there, and its not taking up half of my valuable balcony space anymore. hahaha

I'm in the same boat with my Hoya's! I had them outside all summer so the blooms didn't bug me. Now, I had to bring them inside and they won't stop blooming!! Plus, they're huge now! They grew like weeds outside. They're blocking all the light in the window...

Yes to the BOP! I bought a tiny baby one last year and now it’s taller than me!!! And it does lean everywhere even in a large Southern window. I need to get it out of my house before I CAN’T get it out of my house.

I do agree peace lily is a fussy plant, I ended up passing mine along. Cactuses and kids don’t mix. My 2yrs old likes to grad and touch them all the time, also giving them adequate lighting is challenging. I have grow lights for my small collection.

God I feel you on the obliqua nodes.. I bought two for 120 each. One of them rotted in my prop box and the other one sent out a long steak of nodes before quickly dying when I tried to switch it to my soil mixture. Would've loved to have a beautiful Obliqua growing in my house but I won't spend money on that gamble anymore and I don't have the money for a pre-established plant, rip :(

I honestly completely agree with bird of paradise and orchids, i mean, what are you gonna do when the BOP outgrows the only room it could fit in? Also, orchids get BORING, they grow so slow, and after blooms, and even during blooms theyre just kinda "there."

Its so funny with your peace Lily how the back is so little since it lives in the corner because my bamboo did the same. For some reason I didn't expect it and it grew and grew and one day I saw the back. So naked! 😂

The hoyas: just keep them in slightly lower light than you normally would :) They will stay green and lsh but will not bloom anymore and not grow as much. All the best from Germany!
