    I think this is one o the best looking orbifolias I’ve ever seen. Everyone would do good to listen to her! I just got my first orbifolia today in a little 4 inch pot. Let’s hope I can grow it to be as pretty as this one someday

    You rarely see a orbifolia this big without brown crispy tips. So you're doing something right.

    Very beautiful ❤ what do you mean by flushing the soil? Can someone explain? Sorry, plant newbie from Germany
    I am glad that you "only" use 1 soil...it seems that one has to buy at least 4 products nowadays...

    Great tip about checking for a mesh bag in the root system if your plant seems to really struggle. I've watched several you tubers mention finding those in their calatheas, but you are the first who described the plant's struggles which lead you to investigating further. So helpful, thank you!

    Hi there, Do you use filtered or distilled water? When you mentioned you put your plant under the shower I really liked that idea.

    Hello. I saw yours and just fell in love💚. I’ve had mine for a year and It sits near the south facing window, the humidity is usually around about 70%, i water it pretty much twice a week because the soil dries out quickly. I fertilize it maybe once a month. But mine hasn’t got that big. I started off with a tiny one but i mean it’s been a year now. It’s always shooting out some new growth but its leaves don’t seem to get that big. I want mine to get huuuuge, Do you have any tips for me?

    • @michellesplants2708
      @michellesplants2708  3 роки тому +1

      I do 🥰 increase the pot size. I repot mine every 6 months and it helps. Just be careful not to over water it. Sorry for my delay in responding 💚

    hi ,my plant is after repotting sad leaves,they hanging , but i see also new babies in the plant. is this normal when repotting that leaves are droopy? greeting from holland

    • @michellesplants2708
      @michellesplants2708  3 роки тому

      It is difficult to tell why your leaves would be sad. I'm guessing it's from transplant shock. Have you given it a good watering. I hope it bounces back quickly. 🤞

      @laurapearson3370 3 роки тому

      Mine is the same, and I repotted it 3 months ago but I have 8 new leaves coming through , but I doesn't look happy. I'm cautious about overwatering so the top 2 inches are fairly dry but I can tell it's still moist lower down, but I don't know what to do for the best
