    I actually got VERY lucky and found a full grown Cebu Blue at the Walmart in Pittsburgh last year for $14!! I've had it my bathroom hanging from my shower curtain rod and BOY OH BOY did it grow!! The vines are literally down to the floor and I have made 3 new plants from it!! I named her Blue Ivy 😍 I wish I could post before and after pictures. It's an amazing plant 😁

    I remember seeing them in my big box stores like Lowes many years ago and I never got one because at the time I thought they looked kinda boring. The next thing I knew people were selling two leaf cuttings for $40+ online, it took me a few years later till I could find a decent sized lush one for $22.

    Hi Nick! I'm glad you did this video on the cebu blue. It's one of my favorite plants. I got it last year at Walmart for $16.98 in a 6" pot. I just cut it back and repotted it recently. I hope it likes the repot as I'd hate to loose it. I do have a lot of cuttings in water that I need to go through. I didn't realize the leaves will split as they get bigger. I guess I need to get it on a moss pole asap! I'm looking forward to your Plant Of The Week videos. Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing!

    This is perfect timing! I have one of these and it's yards and yards of stem with no leaves. So I ordered another one because they're pretty cheap here and after your video I know that the reason it looks so terrible is because it's hanging in a window in Houston Texas! So I just chopped it to hell and I have about 30 cuttings and my new one is in an East window. Hopefully this will all work out and I'll have at least two or three beautiful plants. I thought maybe this was like begonias which just dropped it as soon as they hit my front door and I have no idea why. Thanks so much!

    I got one at Walmart 2 winters ago and hung out outside on my deck in dappled shade with some full western afternoon sun and it grew to the ground from the 2nd story and filled the pot entirely with roots. It has just exploded with growth since I bought it. Mine is much blue than yours unless the colors come through differently. In my experience this plant is nearly bullet proof unless you excessively over water. It propogates like a weed. I have no idea why it's "rare".

  • @hallyuniverse
    @hallyuniverse 2 роки тому +1

    'Cebu Blue' actually shoots off those runners when it's grown in a hanging form rather than allowed to climb, it's attempting to search for something to climb up as that's the preferred way for epipremnum to grow. The longer the 'Cebu Blue' gets the smaller the leaves will get going down the vine and eventually it will stop putting out leaves. You can trim the runners and the plant will grow bushier instead of leggy.

    • @laurachapin204
      @laurachapin204 2 роки тому +1

    • @heartjt
      @heartjt 2 роки тому

      That’s good advice. Thank you. Immune is growing long stems with no leaves. I didn’t know it wont eventually grow at all. So if I just cut it off, it will grow fuller instead? I actually would prefer that look.

    • @hallyuniverse
      @hallyuniverse 2 роки тому

      @@heartjt Yes the plant will eventually start growing new branches instead of trying to grow a smaller vine straight down. You can also take some of the vines that are growing down and place them on top of the soil and the aerial roots will eventually root in the soil, you can pin them with a bobby pin into the soil. It makes the plant appear fuller.

      @@approachableplantsbyjessie495 this was the first time I propped but I did a bunch and had a lot fail. I think it could have been due to the existing aerial roots some of the cuttings had because that’s what seemed to rot mostly but then I had a few that it was the stems, and some were even weeks later after there was already new roots and growth. I change the water pretty often, probably once to twice a week depending. I let my cuttings dry out before putting in water, I’m wondering if I didn’t let these callous over enough

    I absolutely love my cebu blue, but I have noticed that I am constantly fighting spider mites on them! What the heck? Any advice to permanently get rid of the leaf sucking jerks? I’ve washed the entire plant, repotted it, used dead bug, and I even went so far as to use home defense on the entire plant! And I just found more tiny webbing this morning! I can’t just get rid of the plants, (I have 2 smaller ones) they’re part of my “wish plant” bucket list and I paid over $40 last year for a tiny 3” pot which I split into 2 - 4” pots once it got bigger to combat the spider mites earlier this summer. I’ve seriously been fighting spider mites on this plant for months. I do have the bonide houseplant powder, but I don’t know how to use it, I’ve heard if you use too much you can kill the plant.
