I love all of my Prayer plants, Marantas, Calatheas, Stromathies, etc. I have many of them. I am an overwaterer! I struggle to not overwater. It sounds so easy to just ignore them haha, but I can’t! Anyway, they all look fabulous. They used to get brown tips. But once I started to leave my water out for at least 24 hours. I add the chemical people use for fish tanks to remove Chlorine, and that has helped tremendously. I love my Lemon-lime and my Silver band. But the Peacock plant and the Rattlesnake Calathea are right up there with them! Thanks for all the info. Will be watching the underwaterer video!
I keep finding these amazing videos of yours, when I thought I had already viewed them all! I LOVE watering my plants, so this is perfect for me.😅
Good plant information, appreciate how thorough you are. Also, Toby is gorgeous, he's welcome any time as far as I'm concerned! Love how he got on the coffee table very confident he was going to get the attention rather than those silly plants !
Thank you!! Toby unfortunately had a rough week last week (health scare and emergency vet stay) but is doing better now and decided to let everyone know by coming to say hi in the video I’ll be releasing this Wednesday 🐈❤️
My Boston ferns like to stay moist. I water twice a week. They also like to be misted everyday.
Love your videos
Thank you!💚
I'm from Australia 🇦🇺. Our black Marantas must be more common here and cheaper. I'm just about to buy one from an online store in Australia for $18.
New sub here . Enjoying your old shows.😊
$18?! I wish I could get one for that price here!
This was a fun video! Your aluminum plant is beautiful
Thank you!
Thank you! Great video! If it were up to me, I would have one of every species in the Calathea family, but I struggle with keeping the humidity level where they need to be. I did have a breakthrough moment the other day on that, though. I ordered butter warmers from Amazon, and they should be here tomorrow, so I will see how much they raise the humidity around my plants. For now, I'm going to order a Calathea Rattlesnake when the the weather warms up enough that I know it won't suffer cold damage during shipping, and go from there. I also acquired a Red-Veined Maranta from the local nursery the other day. So far, so good! I've had it about a week, and no problems yet.
Butter Warmer? I don't understand, is it just like heat for the plant? Why not use a heat mat instead?
Butter warmers? Do you mean, like, for water evaporation? an intersting idea.
Enjoyed the video, (very informative). Thank you 😊 ❤John 3:16 🌺
I have a schefflera that is super thirsty. I had to put it in a self watering pot because I couldn’t keep up with how much it wants to drink.
I assume the watering requirements will be the same for red maranta
Yes
Any thoughts or comments on Ivy plants?
No, just no, it’s a no for me lol. They’re probably the biggest spider mite magnets out there and 9 times out of 10 the ones in the stores already have spider mites so I personally avoid ivy like the plague.
@AlohaPlantLife
Thank you and good to know. We had some last year in our outdoor planters that we saved and repotted and brought inside and ended up selling them on Facebook Marketplace.

My Alocasia's I've noticed are very prone to spider mites as well as our Croton Oak Leaf. Along other plants have had some visible thrips from time to time (Philodendron and Diffenbachia) plants.
Does it cost to subscribe or once you have subscribed
It doesn’t cost anything to subscribe to a channel💚
Drea, you forgot Stromanthe (sp) as a member of the prayer plant family.
I know, lol. I realized it afterwards and I address my brain malfunction it in a future video, lol
