    Hardly anyone can grow majesty palm! They only last a short time. I have a parlor palm that I have had for over 20yrs and I live in Ohio!

    Ferns, in my humble opinion want to be kept moist not wet and don't move them around. Succulents are moody and can be tricky but soo worth it. We all have our diva plants but I enjoy the challenge. Thanks for your fun, real and upbeat content. I really enjoy your vibe.

    Palms, I am in So Cal. which qualifies as desert-are kept outside, direct sunlight. planted in the ground. Ferns, indirect sunlight, humidity. Succulents desert plant, usually. Its for the person who doesn't water often. They are fleshy and store water in their leaves. Fiddle leaf figs, never owned one but it's reputation precedes it, but I have heard some are able to grow it outdoors in my area. My guess as to why your pink princess "reverted" is that it's compensating for the reduction in light with a chlorophyll laden leaf; it's all about energy production. It is still a nice plant. Put it back in the light. The genetics are still there; you will get the variegated pattern back.

    The Asparagus Fern and the Crocodile Fern are the easiest ferns i tried, they continued to grow even in winter and 30% humidity.

    It definitely depends on where you live. I have no humidifier, humidity can get pretty low, but my Palms still do well, they even thrive, pushing out new growth. Mine tend to like lower lighting. Cacti/succulents do pretty well with me, I don't struggle at all with them. I agree with Ferns. Haven't had the other ones. Great video!

    From my experience with the pink princess is that the more i let mine grow the more pink I get. I want to chop one just to start over since it was stretched out a bit, but the pink on the newer leaves is beautiful. My problem with them is that their leaves can burn so easily.. I have one under a LED grow light but a bit way and the leaves still burn and get those brown scratch looking marks on it.
    I do agree with succulents, but because I cannot provide them with enough light so they get very stretched out. I may try the Euphorbia tirucalli 'Sticks on Fire'.
    Ferns have really hurt me. I bought a beautiful heart leaf fern and I have to keep it in a tote since it wants such high humidity. It's a shame..I have a rabbits foot fern that I love since the legs remind me of my tarantulas lol but she's kept in a greenhouse with some begonias.
    As always, thank you for the videos!

      I know exactly what you mean with the streaking on the ppp, some of my other dark philos do it too, it's so annoying!
      The rabbits foot fern is one of my favorites. Those legs are so cute! Lol

    I'm in kansas, I had a majestic palm for a few months... then I sold her because I didn't have space. I'll never do ivy or ferns because they're spider mite magnets. Every single succulent I've had...I've successfully killed 🤪🤣 I'm an over-waterer/helicopter mom.... I do better with needy plants 😉
