I love how down to earth and honest you are. Tell people to not listen to you when it comes to house plants then proceed to care for an incredibly cool plant. 😊♥️
I can hear your plant saying Thanks Mom
I can hear it Braaaying!😊
i really appreciate you being 100% transparent about not being an expert! also i love the way you explain your reasoning for each step and apply your knowledge
I have a staghorn fern that I potted/mounted in a small teak bowl and hang sideways on a wall. I have in the past mounted one on a teak cheese board from the thrift store that has little plastic feet to hold it off the wall. Just add a hook or eye to a tropical hardwood thing that's not designed to lay totally flat, and you don't really have to worry about the drywall. The big thing for me watering mounts is having a place for them to be able to sit and soak in water effectively and then somewhere to drip dry for a bit before rehanging. My current mount is too large for me to soak the whole thing -fertile fronds and all- effectively so I mist them frequently and do root ball soaks of the bowl every few weeks.
Let that sphag dry and use it later to line an outdoor basket, or use it as part of the medium in a bog planter!
Great job! I rescued a planter from Lowes that has a variety of dying plants! Amongst them are staghorn, monkey tail and several snake plants. I think I’m going to separate them all. This is super helpful!
Looks great Erin! I’m so glad you found the wire cutters because that was getting toasty there for a bit. :)
My best friend in FL has a Staghorn fern the size of a VW bug that she just stuck between two huge branches of an Oak tree, and a smaller (I’m using that term loosely lol) one that is just stuck onto her other Oak. Total shade and they only get watered in the Summer if there’s no rain, which would be highly unusual. They thrive in that shady, humid environment and are just stunning. Give yours full shade, humidity, an occasional drink and you will need a construction crane the next time you have to pot it. As for the moss - I mulch a lot of planters with shredded coconut coir and spaghnum will work perfectly well too. Thanks for sharing; that was fun to see.
I recently purchased a staghorn fern planted in a koke dame ball I soak it in the sink weekly and so far it's doing great. I used to have one planted on a board that didn't survive a cross count move. I think they are living art.
The best statement ever--- "Don't start your staghorn fern on fire!!!!" LOL ❤ I used to have a HUGE staghorn when I lived in FL but sadly had to leave it behind when I moved to PA.... loved that plant!!
I remember growing up in Southern California, my Mom had 1 or 2 outside. One on a wall and another in her Orchid Lathhouse. She was a great gardener ❤.
Hi🌺 the staghorn fern looks so beautiful in this basket .Have anice day. 🌻🌺🌻
I have onr that seems to live on benign neglect, too. I never thought to let it camp out on the covered porch over summer... planning its summer camp experience now!
Staghorns have always been intimidating to me. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve wanted one since the first time I saw one, years ago. Wasn’t sure I could keep it alive inside but now I might just try it!
We have a huge one that we moved onto a monkey orange/apple tree (makwakwa tree) . It is as tough as nails. Gets a little sad during dry winter months but perks up once the rains come. There are now quite a few new plants that have established themselves in the tree and on other trees and a bougainvillea. They seem to manage to settle in more easily on rough bark plants. We did transplant another onto a lichi tree which is doing well. Just tied it onto the tree with a thin stretchy piece of fabric. Hot humid coastal conditions here. Yours should do well with all that nourishment Erin.
Everything you’ve just described sounds heavenly!
I was interested in what you were doing as I perused the internet. I live in Sydney and have many stag horns and elk horns on wood and trees. The ones on trees collect their own native leaves and the ones on wood I just pack leaves behind them. Just one thing to note. I noticed you buried a pup down the side. It will die. Next time cut it off and mount it and you slowly get another one. Their simple to propagate just cut under the whole round leaf to about an inch and that’s it. They are a very hardy plant. Sometimes you think their dead and the rain comes and they burst back into life. Matt. Horticulturist
Amazing Staghorn. I’d say you’re doing fantastic in the house plant department.
Encore, Encore, Encore! 😊💚🦌
I just visited The Fairchild Botanical Garden in Coral Gables, FLA. Massive staghorn ferns hanging from huge chains. My friends that I was visiting had them on their palms and I love them, even though I know I could never grow them in NYS-Zone 6b. Never thought I could grow as a house plant. Good to know if I was ever inspired to do that, but I usually kill house plants, so not sure I could take the guilt with a majestic staghorn.
I bought a small stag horn while we’ve wintered in Florida. It’s been happily growing on my humid lanai, and I have a real fear of how it’ll do in very dry Colorado. Your video was very timely.
Never heard of this plant; very cool looking, especially how/where you have it hanging. 😀 Yes, please don't burn down your amazing kitchen, lol! I had a hard time concentrating on what you were doing because I kept checking out your beautiful cupboards and backsplash! I need to repot a few of my houseplants soon too. Time to go shopping for new pots!
I was eyeing one at the nursery yesterday....think I may need to take another trip and get it!!! That's absolutely stunning!
Nice outcome. Those are very beautiful plants. Wish I had room for one. I like where you hung yours.
Wow! I've never heard of this plant before. It really is quite beautiful and interesting and it looks great in its new home. (ps: love your kitchen wall tile)
Thanks!
I love your presentation. Thank you for being real and making those who view this comfortable.
Thanks! I always wondered how else you could hang a Staghorn Fern other than on a piece of wood. It looks great!
Someone donated a large stag horn fern to the New Orleans Botanical Garden because it grew too big for her house. It was then mounted outside on a tree, possibly a live oak. Impressive size. They do need room.
That’s how Longwood got theirs as well. But I believe Longwood’s was 50 years old or something when it was donated. Odds are I’ll kill mine before it even approached a big size but I’ll be dead by then anyway so someone come get it.
That looks so beautiful!!! I'm now eyeing possible eastern facing places where I could hang one!
Woop! You’re adorable. Thank you for g the advice 🍀
Great use of a Vanda basket! Looks great!!
I have always admired staghorn ferns, but I kill every houseplant so I try to to commit murder of innocent plants. 😀 yours is beautiful and kudos for keeping it going this long, may it have many more years to thrive.
I love this girl😂,I am watching all the way from Guyana in South America and I really need some moss😊
Let me pack some in my suitcase!
@@TheImpatientGardener 💖
Glad you didn't start a fire in your kitchen with that grinder :) Looks like a great project.
I’ve had mine for several years and it’s been declining this past year. Now I know why. I feel less guilty in pitching it now. THANK YOU
I just got a small staghorn fern yesterday and today bought a vanda basket, Great timing!
Glad to see this video. I think I've been watering mine too much. Its doing great, but now I'm going to repot it. You are so funny!
Good Lord Girl- YOU are hysterical!! Glad to see you used nippers instead of the grinding tool, to free that crazy looking plant. I'm sure with your creativity you'll find lots of uses for the remaining moss. Your container seems a tad small for the plant, unless you break it into two plants.
I have never seen one of those before. Thanks for introducing me to one. Very interesting. Now I want one.
And this is why we tune into you. 😂💚 Beautiful inspiration, good information and lots of laughs. I’ve always loved those plants! Curious to know about the other houseplant that captured your heart…
My big ficus. It was my grandmother’s so I feel a great duty to keep it thriving.
You come up with the best gardening topics. Before you know it you'll be showing us how to transplant an Amorphophallus titanium!
I love this vid. Helpful, down to earth and really entertaining!
Gorgeous! Love how this ended up!
That fern is spectacular.
I have had mine in the same kind of basket for years, because I thought it looked better. I wedged a small chunk of a log in the basket originally to help keep it stabilized it has since pretty much enveloped the log. It took it a while to establish, but once it did it really took off.
That is really a neat plant ..I've never heard of them before so cool
Great video! I shared this with our son who lives in FL. He became a stag horn fern Daddy in January. 😆
His will be huge in no time!
@@TheImpatientGardener I bought it for him at the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, FL. You started your postcard thing shortly after I returned home. I saved the little pamphlet/ map… but no postcard. It was an amazing place! I highly recommend! It was just what I needed to start the New Year!
Goodness is that gorgeous!! Now I want one. Never really did before. Thought they were meh. But definitely going on my must have list.
Wow! Thanks Erin for introducing me to such a cool plant 🌱
I just recently planted up my staghorn into a spagnum moss kokedama hanging basket. Pretty fun project & cool in a room
Wow, Erin! 😮What an interesting plant! I love it! Well done!
You can use the moss to make kokodama balls. Also, I line hanging baskets with spagnam moss
I don’t think u can ever kill it unless put in freezing temps!! Looks great!!!
Love it, it looks great! Someday I'd love to try one of those, very unique!
Gorgeous!
What a glorious specimen!!!
Very cool plant! It looks great in it's new basket.
Would love to see the update! I have one since May and I too haven’t taken it out of the pot… not sure I like the mount idea either… love this!
Looks great, love it. Staghorn is on my wish list😊
I have one that is only in 2 inch pot. I hope it grows up to be as large as yours.😊
Thanks for sharing. I've never seen one of these before.
Your fern is gorgeous!
Off topic but I love your kitchen, that tile! 😍
Thank you!! 😊
Well done
Great job, Erin!
I see your Foxtail Fern is going for it, too! woohoo!
That thing has lost its mind! It just put up a couple 3-foot long branches (leaves? Arms?)
I have a huge one in a rotted pot- but the fronds are growing around it! I feed mine banana peels.
Looks great,biggest one I ‘ve ever seen!
That is just a gorgeous plant! 😍
Beautiful! I got a tiny one over winter and have been struggling trying to decide how to pot it….hoping for a 1 and done option! The basket idea looks great!
I can’t believe you let it go so long!!
That is definitely a lot of moss! I use it as part of the mix in my orchid pots. Do you know anyone who grows orchids? They would have to have a lot of orchids!😅
Your staghorn fern looks very happy in its new basket.
Looks great there 🌿
I might have to try one of those. ❄️💚🙃
I love it! You are very brave!
Awesome job, looks great
Tongue fern is a good substitute for staghorn bc it’s hardy to zone 4. It’s smaller but very sculptural.
Ooh. I will look that up.
Whaooo all that moss, I just paid 10$ for 2/4 of that moss in home depot. The plant is beautiful, I have 2 in the trees
You could have come and taken the rest of mine. Of course you’d need a truck. 🤣
I have always wanted a staghorn. Maybe I’ll get up the nerve now. Ty
Hello, your Staghorn looks great! Before and after. Is there a follow up to your re-potting? I would love to see the change over 10 months. Appreciate this video regardless!
Gorgeous I think I'll try one
Thank you for sharing your stag horn plant. It is so unusual and it is the first time I have ever seen one! Where is its origin? I've never seen one growing in zone 4 WI. I always keep my eyes open for plants that grow in the wild and wonder what the heck is this!!!
Love this! Please consider using some rope or something rustic instead of those wire hangers! I love the fern. And the basket. I have a couple small ones and would love to see them this size! Not real sure how to take care of them but I guess they’re tough because I have had them for a year now. Thank you for sharing!
I agree. Those wire hangers aren’t great. I’ll switch them out for something eventually.
Beautiful!
Ok, I think I need one!!
A little exotica -to me. Well done.
Hi Erin. Can you give a quick update on how your Staghorn Fern is doing 9 months later? My friend has one and recently asked me about how to repot it. I had no clue so I fortunately found this video which I'll send my friend a link to. Thank you! ♥🌷
It’s doing great!
Wow that is beautiful!! I have had two and killed both. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Off topic, sorry Erin, but would you mind sharing the specs on your wall tile? Just exactly what we need for a small kitchen needing more light. Love learning about vanda baskets too and may screw up the courage to re-pot my staghorn.
I cut mine into a few pieces and planted each piece in their own support.
Larry did you have to physically cut it apart or where you able to sort of work it apart?
@@TheImpatientGardener I used a large bread knife like a saw. I gave most of it away and started over with one frond. It's getting big again.
I just bought one of these lovelies from my local nursery. My grandmother lives in Daytona Beach and has had one growing for decades. IT'S MASSIVE. I'm in the frozen north though, so indoors for me.
It's in the same type of container, but in a South facing window. When you water, are you moistening the fronds at all? Or just the base? My plant seems to want more water than 1x every other week.
I stick the whole thing in the sink and water the base then do a quick spray of the fronds.
Holy houseplant Batman
Just bought a small one (4” pot) over winter. I planted mine kokidama (sp?) style. Curious to know how you water yours?
I put the whole thing in the sink, water the center, spray the leaves quickly, then let it sit for about a half hour to drain.
Did you sow your poppies yet??
How’s it doing? Is it still alive? I’m thinking of doing the same thing.

That orchid basket is going to degrade
What a mess in your beautiful kitchen.
I seem to specialize in doing messy projects there. 🤷♀️
Wanted to piggy back on @lorihanby6733 I too am grateful for you and your realistic portrayal of your garden life. I am trying hard to do the perfect garden . When I get caught up in the chaos of "trying to keep up" with other you tubers, I take a deep breath and say, "What would Erin do?" She wouldn't try to be perfect:) Much appreciation to you Erin for helping me stay grounded!
