My tastes change too, I always thought begonias were for my 70’s mom and Oma, not for me, I now have about 8 of them lol I’m terrified to count up what I spend on planty stuff in a year! I added moss on top of the soil of a couple Alocasias, works great 👍🏻 instead of one leaf pops, one dies, I keep leaves now!!
In my experience Epipremnum are not good in cold temps but Monstera deliciosa is surprisingly tolerant of cold and has even survived 0 degrees Celsius (ie freezing point) for me for a short period. The pothos I had seemed ok from the same freezing event and then dramatically died but I chopped it and the wet sticks all took. Same event (our house was damaged in a fire and all my plants were stuck in a house with no power over Winter) Philodendrons that are velvety all died and could not salvage wet sticks. Waxier leaved Philos were ok but very damaged. Weirdly some Begonia Rex plants survived possibly because they were dry. Zz plant got very upset and lost leaves and stems but pulled through. Anthurium clarinervium was fine but I would not say any other Anthurium would generally cope. Hoyas had no issue. Even linearis which was totally fine. Cacti and succulents all fine and most can take it cold anyway. Weirdly my snake plants all died - was not expecting that. The winner was definitely Monstera d. Also Pilea peperomiodes - I understand that can take a brief frost too.
I'm very sorry to hear that you've actually had to go through knowing what plants work or not. thanks for sharing your experience though! Hopefully it'll help the original asker 🥰
I’d say lookout for putting a marble queen in a basement unless you have adequate lighting due to its variegation. It may revert if not enough light there. A green jade Pothos or devils Ivy May suit better..
Emma this is a great video..I am laying on my heating pad and watching. I should be doing plant stuff but I’m listening to my body and just chillin. Hope the wedding plans are going well! Kisses to Cleo.Hi to Joe! Have a fantastic weekend ❤🪴
i just had an alocasia variegated frydek arrive in the mail. Should I let it get settled first before taking it out of pot/soil it arrived in or do I change it to semi hydro right away?
Emma, how much time do you usually wait to repot your plant since it has been delivered via post? I got my first plant delivery and don´t know how much time to give the plants before completely changing their substrate.
hey! it does really depend, but I try to wait a week or 2 just to keep an eye on the plant and make sure nothing too funky is going on (also try to keep them in quarantine that time if possible). I also have some friends that immediately repot and have great success with that. I'm leaning more towards that these days too
@@GoodGrowing Emma, thank you so much for sharing your experience :-) I recently repotted/shifted to pon my first plant delivery (3-4 days in the mail, I waited only 2 days to repot): 2 plants perished immediately (ctenanthe, calathea warsz.), other 2 are struggling (A. Frydek, A. Pink Dragon) but might make it, and 3 plants don´t show any signs of stress. So that´s why I asked you not to mess it up again :-) So for my second order I just received, I´ll follow your suggestion and wait min. 1 week or little longer - I don´t want to kill more plants 🙂
So you can stay in the the U.K. for as long as you want after finishing college or the U.K. has no student permits and time limits when visiting/moving there?
When you say you're poor, do you mean you're UK poor or U.S. poor? One can be poor in the U.S. but feel "rich" and live comfortably or lux in another country.
I put a begonia also in semi hydro. And the rots were so thin and difficult to get the soil off. But still it worked well in semi hydro.
let's hope I have similar with this one! thanks for giving me hope 🥰
I workout while watching your content. 😊 right now I’m working on shoulders ✌🏼

Omgosh sounds terrible, we’ve been evacuated 3 times over the last 4 years but have been lucky.. so far. Sorry to hear you had to go through it 😢

Ah Emma! Thank you for the shoutout 🥰🥰🥰

I'm proud of you for listening to your body! Hopefully you're feeling a bit better after the weekend?
I hear from a few people I follow that the warquariarium is a difficult anthurium! Thanks for nice chatting repot xx
yeah I've heard the same but it's so gorgeous I can't help myself!
Thanks for the book recs! Acotar hangover is exactly my what I’m feeling. Also, I died laughing when the entire screen shook 😂🥰

Love these repotting videos :)))
Chatty repot videos are good. 😀🇨🇦
I'm excited for your wedding! And anyone who had not read The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue MUST.
hehe me too! and omg I'm nearly done with that book it and HOLY COW! so good!
@@GoodGrowing I love the voice actress! She tells the story so well!
My favorite plant anthurium dark duke . Cross between pulcachense x luxurians. It's thick and beautiful. Ecuagenera usa
oh woah that sounds super cool!
I do the same with my pots I drill four holes for moss pole stability
best thing ever! makes things so much more stable!

I’m definatly in the over 100 plants in a year club 😅. Also great video and great questions
thanks 🥰 and I can 100% see how that could happen!
What are good grow lights thanks.

Be careful with the peace lily and Cleo, lilies are dangerous for cats. Excited about the wedding ❤ great repot video 😊
thanks for the warning! I've got it on top of my ikea cabinet so not accessable to her at all!
A peace Lilly is not a real lilly so don't fret too much! 😊
Want to buy some plant is it Possible??
Are you not from the UK?
Nope! Born & raised in California, moved to London when I was 22 😉
Ohhh

Looking like draculaaaaas sister😂😂😂😂
I would avoid London at all costs... Horrendous
