It’s hilarious when you start to make excited ideas such as adding a moss pole to the propagated mystery philodendron and then the 2nd thought process you go through and talking yourself back out of it. I’m just the same and my husband dreads what he may find next when comes to my house plants.

The division of cacti into “desert” cacti and “jungle” cacti is overly simplistic. Cacti occupy pretty much the entirety of the Americas, including Patagonia and Canada. It’s way more complex than just desert vs jungle. You can find cacti surrounded by ice sheets and covered in snow. Hell, you can find prickly pears in New England. But to answer your question, yes these are bloom buds. If you put your cactus in direct sunlight (after acclimating it first otherwise it will get sunburn) it will bloom profusely, develop thicker spines, and turn reddish brown. The yellow parts will turn pinkish red. The flowers will only fully open in good lighting conditions and if it’s warm enough.

I am pretty sure variegated philodendron is Florida beauty, Florida ghost comes out with almost white, minty leaves and later turns into green or stay minty. And for the „micans“ it’s just a juvenile melano 🤷♂️

No, micans is actually just a cultivar of Philodendron hederaceum! If the plant were allowed to grow past the juvenile leaves, the fuzziness goes away on the mature leaves!

Not sure if you know this, but Hoya macrophylla has been reclassified under the latifolia umbrella. Sooo, it’s Hoya latifolia FKA macrophylla (formerly known as). That way you can preserve how it’s different from your other Hoya latifolia from Sarawak. To be proper, that one is written as I just did, or as Hoya latifolia (Sarawak). Anything in parentheses is a descriptor and not part of the scientific name. It’s been a bit since I’ve seen one of your videos and wow…your collection is even more massive!! You do a wonderful job displaying them.

A friend of mine is successful in growing her begonias in a coco coir, chunky perlite soil mix…her attempt to grow it in pon was a failure. Maybe the roots are a bit delicate for the pon? 🤷🏻♀️ I am not very familiar with Begonias.

The anthurium I think has papi + luxurians + magnificum. Its leaf shape resembles magnificum, the colour looks like a papi with a little blue from luxurians. That would be my guess, (luxurians x magnificum) x papi. Seeing the petiole would help, because luxurians have rigid square petioles and magnificum has slightly square petioles.

I also have a gymnocalycium, and it does the same thing where the variegated side grows bigger faster. The conclusion I came to is that the green side photosynthesizes more and that causes transpiration, which makes the green side lose their water quicker. Thus growing fatter slower.

I got one that was on my "buy" list: Schismatoglottis wallichii. I killed my first from inconsistent watering it, I believe. It likes the substrate to be moist, and I would come home and it'd be completely wilted even though I had watered in the last 2 or 3 days. It'd perk right up, but I think it happened one too many times. I'm growing the new one in a mix of 2/3 PON 1/3 LECA to see if this way I can better keep up with its drinking habits.

I’m not a super expert, but for my begonia I’d definitely say soil.. semi moist (not soaking wet) soil but it cannnnn definitely dry out once strong and established.. it likes some humidity once it’s really established.. I was misting one of mine for a while but stopped.. and the stems are SO DELICATE at times.. they just get damaged and the leaf dies so easily.. more so when it’s young, when they get too wet, and when you’re fussing over it. Let it be.. kind of ignore it lol also a lot of them have sort of translucent leaves.. looks so special in the light.. but I think this is how it passes light to lower leaves.. sorta like how monstera allows light to pass through its fenestrations..

That is definitely not a Florida Beauty- the leaf shape of a Florida, even in its immature form, is very different from the shape you’ve got going on with that plant. Maybe an erubescens cultivar?

Hello there peps! I have an Aglonema that has white stems, I think is an Aglaonema nitidum, but I'm not quite sure. The think is, I had to cut one stem off (it came with two when I bought it) cuz it got damaged by my clumsy fingers while watering, and have it currently rooting on water (2 weeks ago). It has grown some beautiful roots 2 inches long aprox and my question is, when would it be a good time to plant it back on soil? (I want to do this bc I want the plant to look bushier). And, in case I decide to keep it growing apart from the "main" plant, do you recommend semi-hydro or should I leave in full water? I'll appreciate any guidance! Thanks in advance!
