12:05 I think the word you were looking for here is corking! ❤ The best way I’ve found to remove scale is to manually remove it by hand and treat with neem oil! I find neem oil helps to stop the scale from sticking to the leaf tissue! ❤

Wow $700! 😮 I just bought my most expensive plant an Anthurium Michelle x Doc Block gorgeous plant for $195. 😅 Worth every penny! Joys of getting old 😂 girl you have a long way to go. I finally did a video last weekend at a table because the floor is so challenging for this 55 year old.

She is gorgeous 😍. I have 2 that I have started from wet sticks and they are growing but still small. I just recently repotted my biggest of the 2 and added a moss pole to start training her. I have also added a mint I got as a TC. Monstera is my absolute favorite along with anthiriums and alocasia’s

I’m so excited for my small form to arrive from Enliven AU ❤❤. I have a small large form Aurea named Audrey. Aurora (small form Aurea) will be going onto a moss pole with my Albo (no name atm). Audrey cost $150 (size of a 375ml can) Aurora cost me $99.

If this plant gets any bigger you could have a community of Ewoks build treehouses in it and live there, I’m sure they’d be very happy. Gorgeous plant you should be proud of the care you’ve given it. Once again Plantologist Extraordinaire.

I did this to my monstera deliciosa. Now I have a bunch of babies and I have mine planted in a pot. The wet sticks grew leaves. I was surprised that they all sprouted except two small ones. That is the only monstera I have right now. 😊 I think seeing you cut your plants gave me the courage to cut mine like that.

Hey Melissa I love your teachings. This was so important right now for me. I purchased a beautiful one leaf cutting from someone. Was told keep it in water for a week pot it up in your choice of substrate . 😢Root rot is real. Its got a nice aerial root with a couple half inch roots starting. I want to leave it in water till spring. What would you do? Its not expensive but the leaf and stem varigation is so pretty. Thanks so much
@LeafyConversationsАй бұрын
I have a brownish leaf on my Thai and I contributed it to be variegated and just got to much sun, but now I wonder. I cut off the brown part and thankfully I don’t see anymore. I wish I could have bought one of your cuttings!

Gorgeous plant. I just got an import that I got from a vendor on Palm Street. I am trying to root her in moss. I found that the aerial root was rotting. I cut it on. Which rooting medium is best? Thanks for sharing.

Hi Melissa love your videos ..do you have any suggestions where I can get a Monstera Aurea ?? Just a cutting ..BTW you are the cutest thing 😊
@plantsbymelissaАй бұрын
Thank you so much! I'm not sure about just a cutting. You could do a Etsy search but you can get a fully rooted smaller plant for probably around the same price. I got my second plant from Rare plant fairy and I know lex is selling some smaller plants on her site @plantlifelex

Omg Melissa….I wish I could send you a pic of the Aurea that I “found” in a Deliciosa that I purchased. I still have the mother plant and the Aurea has all yellow leaves with a bit of green. I’ve tried everything and nothing changes. The leaves curl but have NEVER browned, it’s really strange and sometimes I think I’ve stumbled upon something really special that I’m looking for some expertise to help with. Wish I could attach a pic

Do you think your aurea is monstera deliciosa or deliciosa borsigiana? just curious 💚🤔
@carolinebaines8735Ай бұрын
They're all deliciosa, just small form or large form. From my understanding, borsigiana isn't an official designation. Its something someone made up along the way, probably to boost prices…
@iRedPlantsАй бұрын
@@carolinebaines8735 thank you for your opinion, just for information, I have 2 types of monstera, deliciosa and deliciosa var. borsigiana. They are both different, that's why I asked as above
@plantsbymelissaАй бұрын
I used to think borsigiana was different than deliciosa but after researching more and from what I understand they are the same plant. I think there's just a lot of misinformation out there. The smaller/compact form does not have borsigiana officially attached to it. So I would say the aurea is a subspecies or variety of monstera deliciosa :)
