The best way to propagate crawling philodendron, it’s to wrap the overarching stem at the air-roots with spagnum moss and a bit of wrapping plastic. And cut it when the roots are fully grown in the bag. The mother plant will produce more side branches for a fuller plant and more future props. And you just get a clean cut mother prop that’s easy to start and grows big fast.
@janswienink Yes that is true! I have done that before but this way is an easy/lazy way for me haha. I left it too long though because it was winter here in NZ. Usually I prop before it reaches the end of the pot.
@@wildvine.plants what I do with my Mc dowell, I just let it grow from pot to pot, while in the new planter layering the ground around the roots with spagnum. Some sticks to help it stand, after a few weeks the cut. It’s the ultimate in lazy gardening :)
Love the growth pattern of your gloriosum, so straight up and tall! Were you growing it outside or have a grow light from above? I have mine supplemented with grow lights and having it face forward toward the viewing side. Problem is the leaves are so large they started fighting each other.
Frustrating to put it mildly. If you have any large plastic bags( like appliances come in) they do great for keeping large (and beautiful 🤩)leaves until there's enough roots to support them. Only need it for a few weeks. Thanks for the editing... there's another utuber who puts in duck quacks that I appreciate alot. Well done on staying so cheerful in spite of how it must have felt.
@annylindsay5358 hahaha ah yes, the classic duck quacks are always a funny addition! Thank you for watching! We got there in the end and they're doing well in the greenhouse now 😍

I have it inside under a growlight from above :)
