The ZZ plant you showed around 4 minutes: i have a zz plant that lives indoors and gets a lot of sun and water and was planted in almost pure compost-it's a beast with some leaves 3 feet tall. It's a complete misconception that it likes it dark and with little water.
.... that's not an epipremnum aureum (pothos), it's a philodendron silver or scindapsus pictus. And I'm pretty sure that wasn't a maidenhair fern either.
no they're not. a synonym for the scindapsus pictus is epipremnum pictum, not aureum. they're different plants. an epipremnum aureum is a golden pothos or similar. look it up.
They are different in that the philodendron makes a crumbly leaf sheath when it pops new growth. Pothos don't create any kind of sheath or flaky skin at any new growth. They both look very similar though.
Where is this place so I can come get some plants?. I have alot already but it's never enough . I lived in Minnesota and I got most of plants at Lowe's or Walmart and it pretty pricey.
My fiddle leaf fig has no leaves. Should I just wait ? I kept it over the winter and moved it outside yesterday. Will the leaves come back? The stems are hard
Pretty sad when a "professional" nursery can't identify plants correctly and gives bad advice. That pothos was not a pothos and the maidenhair was not a maidenhair. ZZ do not grow their best in very low light and depending on the variety, can get BIG. How you water a plant depends on if the container has drain holes or not?! You NEVER plant any plant in a container without holes! The pretty containers sold without holes are cache pots! You are supposed to use them as cover pots for the plant in a grower's pot that has the holes!
For indoor succulents you can stick with haworthias for success. For those colorful, rosette-shaped succulents, it's best to keep them outdoor in a bright spot and where they can get good airflow. Of course you should always use soil with good drainage and do not over water - succulents like to be dry. I keep mine outdoors during the Spring and Summer and water them once every two weeks. I bring them inside in the winter and lightly water them once every 3-4 weeks. Succulents are easy when they get enough bright light, good air flow, and are kept dry between watering. The problem with trying to grow those colorful succulents indoor is that at least one of those three conditions are missing, and the plants will soon suffer. So that nice, colorful, beautifully shaped succulents arrangement that one buy from Home Depot, for example, and place in the living room will soon loses its color and shape within one week.
Thank you ....loved the tour. I wish we had a place like that around my area!!!
I'm so happy I found this video. You really gave us beginners awesome tips.

This is an excellent presentation. I've added a couple suggestions to my shopping list. Thank You.
I’m Montagnard indigenous live in North Carolina, I have fiddle leaf pig two of them they are so lovely.
I thought the Maidenhair ferns looks different than the fern you showed.

It's quite adaptive, it'll be happy almost anywhere. That being said if you water it often keep an eye on its roots.
This was awesome awesome!!👉👵👈
What do you recommend feeding the fiddle leaf dig with? Just houseplant fertilizer?
.... that's not an epipremnum aureum (pothos), it's a philodendron silver or scindapsus pictus. And I'm pretty sure that wasn't a maidenhair fern either.
Claire Kurtin they're synonymous, look it up.

it's not a philodendron either. Just scindapsus pictus.

I cannot keep any succulents alive. I have more than 30 healthy indoor plants, but every succulent I buy dies.
Feed and water less
I also think succulents are pretty hard. I guess the issue is watering. I'm trying again with succulents, hope I'll succeed this time
Make sure you have a drainage hole, lots of sun, correct soil, and water anywhere from 2 weeks to a month apart.
Keep them in the smallest possible pot according to their size. Little soil, less water and a bright heated space.
For indoor succulents you can stick with haworthias for success. For those colorful, rosette-shaped succulents, it's best to keep them outdoor in a bright spot and where they can get good airflow.
